When natural gas is cooled to a temperature of approximately -260°F [-160°C] at atmospheric pressure it condenses to a liquid called liquefied natural gas or LNG. This process reduces the overall volume of the gas by 1/600. In other words, it takes up about 1/600th the volume of natural gas in the gaseous state. This reduction of volume allows the producer the ability to transport the product very economically and then re-gasify at the final point of use. The cooling process requires valves that are prepared and tested for cryogenics. TRBV offers a series of cryogenic ball valves that are all manufactured and tested to British Standard 6364 (BS 6364) which requires the cryogenic ball valve to perform at temperatures as low as -321°F [-196°C].
TRBV New products LNG Cryogenic Ball Valve for liquified natural gas storage, Temperature can be -196℃.
