We have two sets of diesel and gasoline hydrogenation units, and the high-pressure shut-off valves used are all double-plate high-pressure shut-off valves; one of them is from Hopkinson, while the other is from a local manufacturer. I heard that Qingdao’s large oil refinery uses Hartman hard-sealed ball valves. This time, it was found that the high-pressure cut-off valves from Hopkinson and Workwear are exorbitantly expensive – much more so than a few years ago. May I ask: What types and brands of high-pressure hydrogen cut-off valves have people been using in recent years? Approximate price?
The OMB metal-sealed ball valves from Italy are slightly cheaper. This company does not produce comprehensive products; it focuses on specific applications.
I learned a bit more: For double-plate high-pressure cut-off valves, Hopkinson has the best performance but also the highest prices. The tooling business has also achieved some results this year. Pacific and Tyco also have relevant performance, but not much. Ball valves: Hartman’s hard-sealed ball valves are used in Qingdao Refinery and Hainan Refinery. Willan also has corresponding ball valves.
Reply to 3# Changfeng Jiwanli: In hydrogen pressure shutdown systems, gate valves were commonly used in the past, but ball valves are now being adopted more and more often. Common brands include VTI and MOGAS; for more specific information, please contact me privately!
