Fire protection certification for soft-sealed ball valves

2018-05-25View Original

Thread Content

I have a question: For soft-sealed ball valves, the fire protection certification provided by manufacturers is usually API607; some manufacturers offer API6FA as well. Are both acceptable? For soft-sealed ball valves, are both of these fire protection certifications acceptable? Is there a difference?

Either is fine; API607 applies only to ball valves, plug valves, and other valves that rotate by 90 degrees. API6FA is applicable to the fire testing of all valves

Please contact me for valve certification information. With 20 years of experience in specialty valves, API 607 applies to 1/4 turn valves, which are typically used for ball valves, butterfly valves, etc.; API 6FA is related to multi-turn fire-resistant valves.
