Liquid nitrogen cryogenic ball valve introduction
China cryogenic
ball valve manufacturer,factory and supplier,Liquid nitrogen
cryogenic ball valve is suitable for medium temperature -40℃ ~ -196℃,cryogenic ball valve is called low temperature ball valve.Liquid nitrogen
cryogenic ball valve is mainly used for ethylene, liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant, gas LPG, LNG storage tanks to accept base and goonhilly, air separation equipment, oil chemical tail gas separation equipment, liquid oxygen, liquid nitrogen, liquid argon, carbon dioxide cryogenic storage tank and tank lorry, psa oxygen generating device, etc.The output of liquid low-temperature media such as ethylene, liquid oxygen, liquid hydrogen, liquefied natural gas, liquefied petroleum products, not only flammable and explosive, but also in the heating to gasification, gasification, the volume expansion of hundreds of times.

Liquid nitrogen cryogenic ball valve characteristics:
1. An extended bonnet to the cryogenic ball valve can make the packing gland in the valve and the actuator further away from the cold process so the valve can open and close properly, protect it from freeze-damage caused by low temperature fluid.
2. Low operating torque for smoother operations.
3. Excellent seat and seal design minimizes leakage.
4. Fire-safe design.
5. Rigid body construction minimizes thermal shrinkage.
6. By adopting different materials, the cryogenic ball valve is applicable to different working temperature and medium. The minimum temperature for the ball valve is -196ºC.
