Butt Welded Ball Valve

Features & Benefits

1. The body utilizes forgings, which are available in a large array of materials, making the fully welded ball valve (welded body ball valve) well-suited for special applications as well as standard service.
2. All welding processes for the body are suited to the materials of construction and are qualified and performed according to ASME Section IX.
3. The floating seats are free to move slightly along the longitudinal axis of the bi-directional valve.
4. Double Block-and-Bleed – A single valve with two seating surfaces that, in the closed position.
5. Double Piston Effect (DPE) Seat Design - The seat design allows for both seats to seal with pressure acting from the same side of the valve.

Specit fications

Didtek Fully Welded Ball Valve adopts forged material, welded body, instead of bolts and nuts, to aviod any potential leakage from body.  The forged body with regular structure and even thickness can avoid shrinkage cavities, pin holes, cracks, sand holes and other defects occurring to casting body valves.  Fully-welded ball valves can be spherical and cylindrical type.  Usually the spherical type has only one welding seam on the body, the cylindrical type has two welding seam on the body.
