310S National Standard Flange Ball Valve is a premier high-temperature isolation valve engineered for the most demanding thermal environments in industrial piping. By combining 310S (25Cr-20Ni) heat-resistant stainless steel with the rigorous GB/T 12237 manufacturing standard, this valve provides exceptional oxidation resistance and structural stability at temperatures where standard stainless steels would fail.
Description
310S (06Cr25Ni20) is an austenitic stainless steel specifically developed for high-temperature service:
- Corrosion Resistance: Beyond heat, it provides good resistance to a wide range of corrosive chemicals, making it a versatile choice for complex industrial processes.
- Elite Temperature Tolerance: Maintains excellent oxidation resistance in continuous service up to 1050°C and intermittent service up to 1150°C.
- Anti-Carburization: The high nickel and chromium content offers superior resistance to carburizing and reducing atmospheres, common in petrochemical and furnace applications.
- Mechanical Integrity: 310S retains high creep strength and toughness at elevated temperatures, ensuring the valve body does not warp or lose sealing capability under intense thermal stress.
Features
- GB Standard Compliance: Fully compliant with GB/T 12237 (design), GB/T 9113 (flange), and GB/T 12221 (face-to-face), ensuring a perfect fit and standardized performance within domestic National Standard infrastructure.
- Full Bore Design: The internal flow path matches the pipe’s bore exactly, providing a straight-through passage that eliminates flow restriction and ensures negligible pressure drop.
- High-Temperature Sealing Technology: Typically features Hard-Faced Metal Seats (Stellite) or high-purity flexible graphite packing. This allows for a reliable, tight seal in environments far exceeding the melting point of standard soft seats like PTFE.
- Advanced Thermal Protection: Often equipped with an extended bonnet to move the packing and actuator away from the heat source, significantly extending the life of seals and automation components.
- Safe & Anti-Static: Includes an anti-static device to discharge electricity and a fire-safe structural design to maintain shut-off integrity during emergency thermal events.
