In our factory’s production processes, the pipeline pressure is 12 MPa, and the medium used is CO at room temperature. We previously used high-pressure ball valves from Shanghai with a nominal pressure of 1500 LB, but their lifespan was limited. Is there any better solution?
Friend: Hello! What is the diameter of your valve port?
For normal-temperature and high-pressure ball valves, a fixed forged steel ball valve can be selected. 1. Consider the medium to be CO, and the hazard level of the medium, a. For valve bodies & valve covers, forgings are preferred, as they have a finer microstructure and far fewer defects compared to castings ; b. To prevent CO leakage, low-leakage packing should be used; in fact, a low-leakage test can be conducted in accordance with SHELL 77/312 ; 2. Due to high pressure and large valve torque, operation is difficult, and wear occurs rapidly over time. This requires high precision in the machining and assembly of valve components; low precision can result in no leaks at first, but leaks will occur after short use, leading to a short lifespan as mentioned by the original poster.

For low pressure, forged steel valves can be used; for high pressure, hard-sealed valves are preferable

Since you say the lifespan is limited, have you found out what the main reasons for that are? Sealing surface? Valve stem? Filler? Only in this way can we take targeted actions~ Also, it’s necessary to specify the valve diameter and whether there is moisture in the medium. The hard-sealed ball valves from KAIWEIXI are good, and those from SU VALVE are also fine.
