Floating Ball Valves

Floating Ball Valve

Key Features & Benefits
 (ASME 1500, ASME 2500, API 10k) (1" through 4")

  • Stem seal seals between stem and body to reduce external leak paths by eliminating a bonnet to body seal.
  • Stem retained by body not a bolted bonnet.
  • Retainer threaded to body using stub Acme thread - makes valve pressure containing without flanges installed.
  • Large flange gap allows for 3-part paint system to prevent corrosion.

Robust Performance
  • Retainer threaded to the body using a stub Acme thread for durability and strength. This makes the valve fully pressure containing without an end connection installed on the retainer end of the valve, as is required by conventional compact valves. Retainers are coated with Xylan for corrosion protection and ease of maintenance.
  • Stem is retained by a shoulder in the body, not the bonnet, making the stem fully blow-out proof.
  • Valves have dedicated, built-in automation mounting locations in the valve body or bonnet to allow field installation of automation without loosening any pressure containing fasteners. Many conventional compact valves require removal and reinstallation of bonnet fasteners in order to install actuator mounting hardware.
