A105 Fixed Ball Valve - A dense low-torque isolation solution for forged steel in high-pressure and large-diameter working conditions

Design concept

Using A105 forged steel as the pressure-bearing matrix, continuous grain flow lines are obtained through forging, eliminating the risk of shrinkage porosity and gas holes in castings from the material source. The sphere is fixed and supported by ear shafts. The medium thrust is directly introduced into the valve body through the upper and lower ear shafts, and the sealing surface only bears the controllable spring preload force. Core logic: The compactness of A105 forged steel ensures the integrity of the high-pressure boundary, and the ear shaft support resolves the large-diameter thrust, achieving low-torque operation and uniform sealing wear. It provides standard, economical and long-life isolation components for non-corrosive medium pipelines with a pressure of Class 600 and above and a diameter of DN80 and above.

Performance advantage

· Low operating torque: The medium thrust is carried by the ear bearing, and the torque is only 1/3 to 1/5 of that of the floating ball of the same specification, significantly reducing the specification and procurement cost of the actuator.

· Bidirectional airtight grade seal: The downstream valve seat medium is self-tightened, and the upstream valve seat spring is pre-tightened, meeting the API 598 high-pressure gas seal zero bubble acceptance, and reliable bidirectional disconnection from low pressure to full pressure.

· Cavity pressure self-relief: The upstream valve seat automatically slightly opens to release the abnormal pressure rise in the middle cavity caused by thermal transients, without the need for an external safety valve, ensuring intrinsic safety.

· Uniform sealing wear: The ball is precisely centered and limited by the ear shaft, without eccentric wear. The wear rate of the upstream and downstream valve seats is consistent, and the sealing life is multiplied.

· A105 forged steel is highly dense: The grain flow lines of the forgings are continuous, the wall thickness is uniform, and the specific strength is high. Under high pressure and alternating loads, the integrity of the pressure boundary is superior to that of cast steel WCB.

· Full diameter and low flow resistance: The ball hole is consistent with the inner diameter of the pipe, with nearly zero pressure loss. It can pass through a pigging device to meet the inspection requirements inside the pipeline.

Safety performance

· Fireproof structure: Standard equipped with primary non-metallic seal + secondary graphite/metal seal, certified by API 607/6FA, maintaining effective shut-off in case of fire.

· Anti-blowout valve stem: The reverse sealing step design complies with API 608. Even when the cover is completely loosened, the valve stem will not be blown out by the medium pressure.

· Anti-static conduction: The resistance between the ball, valve stem and valve body is ≤10Ω.

· Cavity pressure self-relief protection: The upstream valve seat automatically relieves pressure to prevent deformation or rupture of the middle cavity due to pressure build-up.
