1″-300LB Monel K400 Floating Ball Valve

TECHNICAL DATA SHEET

Product: 1″ – Class 300 Floating Ball Valve
Material: Monel K400 (UNS N04400)
Aansturing: Manual / Actuator-Ready (Optional)

1. General Description

This floating ball valve is manufactured from Monel K400 (UNS N04400) , a nickel-copper alloy renowned for its exceptional corrosion resistance in seawater, hydrofluoric acid, and reducing environments. The 1″ Class 300 configuration is designed for high-pressure, corrosive service applications where stainless steel may be inadequate. The floating ball design provides tight shut-off and reliable sealing, making this valve ideal for marine, chemical processing, oil & gas, and aerospace industries.

3. Material Specification

4. Belangrijkste kenmerken

• Superior Corrosion Resistance: Monel K400 offers outstanding resistance to seawater, hydrofluoric acid, and a wide range of reducing acids and alkaline solutions. It is immune to chloride-induced stress corrosion cracking (SCC), making it superior to 316 stainless steel in marine environments.
• Floating Ball Design: The ball is not trunnion-supported; line pressure forces the ball against the downstream seat, ensuring bubble-tight shut-off even at low pressures.
• Forged Monel Construction: Body, ball, and stem are manufactured from forged Monel (ASTM B164 and B865), ensuring a dense, defect-free microstructure with consistent mechanical properties.
• Blowout-Proof Stem: The stem is retained by a shoulder beneath the packing, preventing accidental ejection under pressure.
• Anti-Static Device (Optional): Conductive path between ball, stem, and body dissipates static charge for flammable service applications.
• Fire Safe Design (Optional): Available with fire-safe seat design compliant to API 607 or ISO 10497.

5. Operating Torque & Actuator Interface

For automated applications, the valve can be supplied with an ISO 5211 direct mount platform.

6. Testing & Compliance

• Ontwerpstandaard: ASME B16.34
• Face-to-Face Dimensions: ASME B16.10
• Pressure Testing: API 598 (shell and seat tests)
• Material Certification: EN 10204 Type 3.1 (including chemical composition and mechanical properties)
• Fire Safety (Optional): API 607 / ISO 10497
• NACE (Optional): MR0175 / MR0103 for sour service

7. Toepassingen

• Marine and offshore (seawater systems, firewater lines)
• Chemical processing (hydrofluoric acid, chlorinated hydrocarbons)
• Oil & gas (sour gas, produced water)
• Aerospace (fuel and hydraulic systems)
• Alkaline and reducing acid environments

8. Notes for Ordering

• Monel K400 vs. K500: The valve body and ball are typically K400; the stem is often upgraded to Monel K500 for higher strength and wear resistance.
• Seat Selection: PTFE is suitable for general service up to 150°C. For higher temperatures (up to 250°C) or abrasive media, PEEK seats are recommended.
• End Connections: Confirm flange rating (Class 300) and facing (RF or RTJ) or threaded end type (NPT or socket weld) prior to ordering.
• Aansturing: Specify if ISO 5211 mounting is required for future automation.

GARANTIE:

SAVVY VALVES streeft naar uitzonderlijke productkwaliteit en zorgeloze aftersalesservice. Onze kleppen hebben een gegarandeerde minimale levensduur van 12 maanden. Gedurende deze periode leveren wij alle benodigde reserveonderdelen en gedetailleerde onderhoudsinstructies gratis. Mocht er binnen de garantieperiode schade ontstaan ​​die niet door mensen is veroorzaakt, dan vervangen wij kosteloos de onderdelen en bieden wij professionele technische ondersteuning. Na de garantieperiode hoeven klanten alleen de kosten van de reserveonderdelen te betalen en profiteren zij nog steeds van kortingen op onderhoudsdiensten. Ons doel is om klanten te helpen de operationele kosten te verlagen en de productie-efficiëntie te verbeteren door middel van betrouwbare kwaliteit en uitgebreide aftersalesservice. Of het nu gaat om technische vragen of onderhoudsbehoeften, ons deskundige team reageert snel om ervoor te zorgen dat uw klepsysteem te allen tijde optimaal blijft presteren.
