Sure, no problem! But you need to be prepared for high-temperature treatment!

Our equipment also has similar ball valves, DN400, 1500LB, with media being high-temperature wax oil and hydrogen; the operating pressure is quite high at 16.8 MPa. However, the temperature isn’t as high as one might think – it’s controlled around 350 degrees.

The key is to look at the sealing surface; soft seals can be damaged by heat, leading to internal leakage in the valve. .
