Floating and Trunnion Ball Valves

Floating ball valves mean the most conventional type amongst all other ball valve designs; it is featured by the action of a free-floating ball that moves in response to fluid or mechanical pressure. Floating ball valves

constitute an optimal option for On / Off applications on the oil, gas and process industries. They are quarter turn valves having proved excellent tightness rate and can be operated by means of a manual hand lever,

worm gear and also actuators. Some salient features of the Series BV4- API-F are amongst others:

Full bore ball design.

Reliable seat sealing helped by the pressure of the line medium.

Fire Safe design; (optionally), auxiliary metal seals are provided to avoid internal and atmospheric leakage of the valve when subject to

overheating conditions. This feature is compliant with API 607, API 6 FA BS 6755.

.Reliable stem sealing, blow out proof stem design and V-shaped packing units around the stem.

Anti static stem.

Key locking device, pad locking and stroke limiter

Trunnion ball valves have a mechanical means of anchoring the ball at the top and the bottom, this design is usually applied on larger and higher pressure valves (say 4 inch and above 600 psi and above). They constitute an optimal option for On / Off applications on the oil and gas industries. They are quarter

turn valves having proved excellent tightness rate and are commonly operated by means of a manual worm gear or electric actuators. Some salient features

of the Series BV4-API-T are amongst others:

Emergency grease injection device, to keep the emergency tightness to the

seats and stem in the event of soft goods damage.

.Fire Safe design; (optionally), auxiliary metal seals are provided to avoid

internal and atmospheric leakage of the valve when subject to overheating

conditions. This feature is compliant with API 607, API 6 FA, BS 6755.

Double block & Bleed function.

Self relief of built up pressure in the body cavity by propelling the ball seat.

Reliable stem sealing, blow out proof stem design and V-shaped packing units

around the stem.

.Anti static stem.
