Excuse me, what about cartridge ball valves?
Thread Content
I need to build a pilot-scale testing facility and must purchase a batch of valves. All valves to be used in this facility should be cartridge ball valves with a DN10 size; in other words, the diameter of the process pipes is 10 mm. The operating temperature is 160 degrees, and the pressure is within 10 bar. The fluid involved is a type of light hydrocarbon. I would appreciate it if experts could recommend several brands of valves. I’ve heard that domestic valves do not meet the required quality standards, as they often cause leaks during operation. What brand of valves would be suitable in this case? ?
SWAGELOCK, but the price is too high
Your type of valve belongs to the category of medium-temperature, medium-pressure valves. The leakage issues with domestically produced such valves are mainly related to the sealing surfaces. When placing an order, specify the materials to be used for the valve body, ball, stem, and sealing surfaces; choosing manufacturers with a larger scale will ensure more reliable quality. I am also from a valve manufacturing company. If you are interested, you can contact me by phone: 13173210132, Mr. Li
Good quality and hassle-free; don’t risk getting into trouble just to save a little money. The domestic valves we use keep breaking down :'( There’s no choice but to opt for imported valves – it’s unavoidable. Sigh
Now, specification sheets are available; the manufacturer will help you select the appropriate valve based on your operating conditions. The materials used for each component as well as their thermal output are detailedly specified, including those for the seals. You’re looking for products from Wuxi Workwear – the price is quite good and the quality is definitely fine. KOSO is their brand
Imported valves are more expensive, but their quality is guaranteed; if the process requirements are not very high, domestic valves can be chosen
SWAGELOCK – I’ve always used this brand; it’s a very reputable manufacturer
The valve you are referring to is likely the cartridge ball valve used in the instrumentation industry. Its advantage is its easy installation, but it’s important to have several spare cartridge rings available, as when such connections are removed and reinstalled, new rings need to be used. There are many manufacturers abroad, including PARKER, HOKE, SWAGELOCK from the United States, SAFELOCK from the UK, and HY-LOCK from South Korea. Of course, the South Korean products are the most competitive
Crimp connectors are easy to install and do not require welding; the key is that they must be of good quality.
Use Italian LAPAR ball valves! Reasonable price! :) :) If you need them, feel free to contact me! 13764138562, Guo Zhiwei
We have cartridge ball valves and needle valves from American HOKE; they can handle temperatures of over 200 degrees and pressures of 414 bar. Both NPT and cartridge connection types are available. You can contact Liu at 021-54439561~~
Thank you all. According to our experienced colleagues, we have decided to go with Swagelock products this time; in the future, we will consider other brands when purchasing products. Thank you again
