Built for Long-Term Gas Infrastructure Service
Advanced welding procedures, NDE inspection, and full in-house testing ensure durability, reduced maintenance, and infrastructure-level reliability.
A monoblock fully welded ball valve eliminates external flange joints and threaded connections, which are common leakage points in bolted designs. This makes it ideal for high-pressure gas transmission pipelines where zero external leakage is critical for safety and regulatory compliance.
In trunnion mounted ball valves, the ball is mechanically anchored by upper and lower trunnions, which absorb pipeline pressure loads and prevent the ball from moving against the seats. This ensures consistent sealing force, lower operating torque, and reliable shut-off performance, especially in large diameter or high-pressure applications.
Double Block & Bleed (DBB) means the valve provides two independent seating surfaces that block flow from both sides, combined with a bleed port to vent or drain the valve cavity between the two seats. This is required in gas transmission operations where safe isolation and pressure verification are mandatory before maintenance or line access.
Fire-safe performance is commonly evaluated against standards such as API 607, API 6FA, and BS 6755 Part 2, which specify test conditions for valve sealing integrity during and after fire exposure. Anti-static requirements ensure electrical continuity between the ball, stem, and body to prevent static charge buildup, as outlined in standards like API 6D and ISO 17292.
These fully welded trunnion ball valves are engineered to accommodate very large diameters, with standard configurations available up to DN1200. Custom engineering solutions for sizes beyond DN1200 are also available upon request, with structural reinforcement and specialized internal geometry designed to maintain alignment and operational integrity at extreme scale.
Each valve undergoes rigorous quality assurance that includes advanced welding procedure qualification, Non-Destructive Examination (NDE) — such as ultrasonic testing, radiographic inspection, and magnetic particle testing — as well as full in-house hydrostatic and pneumatic pressure testing. These measures ensure compliance with international pipeline standards and long-term infrastructure-grade reliability.
