How to Select Valves Suitable for High and Low Temperature Conditions?
In the process of using the valve, we will encounter various working conditions, such as high temperature and low temperature. In this case, how should we choose the valve? 1. High Temperature Conditions When selecting valves, it is necessary to consider using shell materials and internals materials with high temperature strength, such as austenitic stainless steel valve and bidirectional stainless steel. The selected materials should not be bonded, plasticized and creep due to high temperature, the gap cannot not be too small. Applicable valve types include gate valve , butterfly valve , etc. If the temperature has exceeded the temperature range that the metal can bear, the special valves with ceramic lining can be used, and the cooling jacket structure can also be used to keep the internal metal within the allowable stress range through circulating water cooling. 2. Low Temperature Conditions When the temperature is lower than - 29 ℃, l...
