- Material Specifications & Rationale
|
Componente
|
Material
|
Rationale
|
|
Body & Bonnet
|
A182 F304/F316 / A351 CF8/CF8M
|
Austenitic stainless steel retains ductility and impact toughness at -196°C. F304L/CF3 grades offer enhanced resistance to intergranular corrosion after welding. All components undergo cryogenic stabilization treatment per BS 6364 .
|
|
Bola
|
A182 F304/F316
|
Hard chrome plating or electroless nickel coating improves surface hardness (Ra ≤ 0.4µm) and ensures low friction against PCTFE seat .
|
|
Assento
|
PCTFE (Spring-Energized)
|
PCTFE (Poly-chloro-tri-fluoro-ethylene) maintains dimensional stability and resilience at -196°C. Spring-energized design ensures bubble-tight shut-off even at low differential pressures .
|
|
Stem Seals
|
PTFE + Graphite
|
Extended bonnet positions packing away from cold zone; live-loading compensates for thermal cycles and prevents fugitive emissions .
|
- Cryogenic Design Features
|
Feature
|
Descrição
|
Benefit
|
|
Extended Bonnet
|
Length per BS 6364 (e.g., 250mm for DN50) keeps stem packing at ambient temperature .
|
Prevents ice formation on packing; ensures reliable stem sealing and operation.
|
|
Pressure Relief Hole
|
Upstream-side hole in ball prevents cavity pressure buildup during warm-up .
|
Eliminates risk of cavity over-pressurization and seat damage.
|
|
Dispositivo antiestático
|
Springs/plungers ensure electrical continuity between ball, stem, and body .
|
Prevents static charge accumulation in flammable cryogenic services.
|
|
Blowout-Proof Stem
|
Stem retained internally by shoulder or retaining ring .
|
Safety critical: prevents stem ejection under pressure.
|
|
Cryogenic Treatment
|
All pressure-containing parts thermally cycled to -196°C .
|
Stabilizes microstructure; ensures dimensional stability in service.
