Flanged Globe Valve Compliant with API 600, ASME B16.34, and ANSI B16.5 standards.
Core DefinitionA specialized flow control device engineered for regulating liquids and gases in industrial and commercial piping systems. It features a disk-shaped valve plug (globe) and flanged ends, providing a secure bolted connection to pipelines for reliable fluid management.
Structure & Operating Principle
- Key Components: Disk-shaped valve plug, flanged valve body, and manual handle (or actuator for automated models).
- Operating Mechanism: Rotating the handle drives the valve stem, which moves the disk plug vertically within the valve body—lowering the plug blocks flow, while raising it allows fluid passage, enabling precise throttling and on/off control.
- Connection Method: Flanged ends bolted to matching pipe flanges, ensuring leak-tight integration and straightforward maintenance.
Performance Advantages
- Precise flow control: The disk plug’s design enables accurate throttling and shutoff, ideal for applications requiring regulated flow rates.
- Robust sealing: Flanged connection and precision-machined valve seat ensure tight, leak-proof performance in long-term operation.
- Durable construction: Engineered with high-grade materials to withstand industrial operating conditions, delivering reliable service life.
- Versatile compatibility: Suitable for both liquid and gas media, adapting to diverse industrial and commercial piping requirements.
Key Specifications
- Pressure Rating: PN10 – PN420 / Class 150 – 2500.
- Operating Temperature: -29℃ – 425℃ (carbon steel body) / -196℃ – 550℃ (stainless steel body).
- Body Materials: Carbon Steel (A216 WCB), Stainless Steel (A351 CF8/CF8M), Alloy Steel (A217 WC6/WC9).
- End Connection: Flanged (ANSI B16.5, DIN EN 1092-1) – compatible with standard industrial pipe flanges.
Application Fields
- Industrial Piping Systems: Oil & gas transmission, chemical processing, petrochemicals, power generation, water treatment, metallurgy, and steam systems.
