FAQs — Petrochemical Pipeline Valves
1. Can these valves handle hydrocarbons and solvents?
+
Yes, when equipped with appropriate materials like PVDF and specific O-rings (like Viton or Kalrez), our valves offer excellent resistance to many hydrocarbons and solvents used in petrochemical processes.
2. Are these valves suitable for corrosive environments?
+
Absolutely. The primary advantage of our thermoplastic flanged ball valves is their immunity to rust and electrochemical corrosion, making them ideal for corrosive chemical environments found in refineries.
3. What temperature ranges can these valves withstand?
+
The temperature rating depends on the material. PP valves generally handle up to 80°C, while PVDF valves can operate effectively at temperatures up to 120°C or higher, depending on pressure.
4. How do I choose the right flange standard?
+
You should match the flange standard (e.g., ANSI 150, DIN PN10) to your existing piping system. We can supply valves drilled to match any major international standard.
5. Do you offer certification for these valves?
+
Yes, we can provide material test certificates and compliance documents upon request to ensure the valves meet your project's specific quality and safety requirements.
