  1. Material Specifications & Rationale

Thành phần

Vật liệu

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 .

Quả bóng

A182 F304/F316

Hard chrome plating or electroless nickel coating improves surface hardness (Ra ≤ 0.4µm) and ensures low friction against PCTFE seat .

Ghế

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 .

  1. Cryogenic Design Features

Feature

Sự miêu tả

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.

Thiết bị chống tĩnh điện

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.

  1. Application Guidelines
  • Suitable Media:
    • LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas), Methane, Ethane, Ethylene
    • LO2 (Liquid Oxygen), LN2 (Liquid Nitrogen), LAr (Liquid Argon)
    • Liquid Hydrogen (with special material considerations)
  • Not Suitable For:
    • Media containing solid particles (may damage PCTFE seat)
    • High-temperature service >80°C (soft-seal degradation)
    • Fire-safe applications without special design (not API 607 compliant by default)
  • Installation Orientation: Any position (preferably stem vertical for extended bonnet applications)
  • Hướng dòng chảy: Bidirectional (with appropriate seat design)
  1. Special Requirements for Cryogenic Service

Requirement

Đặc điểm kỹ thuật

Oxygen Service Cleaning

If service is LOX or oxygen-enriched, valve must be cleaned and packaged per CGA G-4.1 with special packaging to maintain cleanliness .

Material Traceability

Full traceability per EN 10204 Type 3.1 required for all pressure-containing parts .

Impact Testing

Charpy V-Notch impact tests at -196°C per ASTM A370 (minimum 41J average) .

PMI Testing

100% Positive Material Identification verification for all alloy components .

Cryogenic Cycle Testing

Optional: 200+ thermal cycles between ambient and -196°C to validate long-term performance.

Vacuum Jacket Compatibility

Extended bonnet length must match insulation thickness for cold box applications.

  1. Marking & Documentation
  • Marking: Per MSS SP-25 (Size, Pressure Class, Material, Manufacturer’s Logo, Heat No., Cryogenic Rating, CE/PED if applicable)
  • Documents:
    • Material Test Certificates (EN 10204 3.1)
    • Pressure Test Report (Ambient + Cryogenic)
    • Certified Dimensional Drawing
    • Cleaning & Degreasing Certificate (if oxygen service)
    • NDE Reports (RT/PT/MT as required)

Procurement Notes

  1. Cấp áp suất: Confirm required class (150LB / 300LB / 600LB) based on design pressure and temperature derating per ASME B16.34 .
  2. Bore Type: Specify Full Bore (for minimum pressure drop) or Reduced Bore (for cost/weight savings) .
  3. Seat Material: Confirm preference:
    • PCTFE: Better dimensional stability, preferred for cycling service at -196°C
    • RPTFE/PTFE: Lower cost, suitable for less demanding applications
  4. Extension Length: Specify if valve will be installed in vacuum-jacketed or cold box applications (custom extension length may be required).
  5. Sự truyền động: If actuated (pneumatic/electric), provide torque requirements and control signal specifications .
  6. Special Cleaning: Specify if oxygen service cleaning is required (CGA G-4.1) .
  7. Fire-Safe Design: If fire-safe certification (API 607) is required, confirm with manufacturer as standard soft-seat designs are not fire-safe .

This technical data sheet complies with BS 6364, ASME B16.34, and API 6D requirements for cryogenic floating ball valves
