SBV Ball Valve

For highly corrosive media, hot liquids, steam and toxic gases

Swissfluid full-port SBV Ball Valves are fully lined state of the art process valves (ANSI sizes full port ½" to 6", reduced port 6" and above). They have proven themselves in the most demanding chemical and petrochemical applications, as well in such diverse areas as pharmaceutical, pulp and paper, mining, and related industries.They are suitable for flanged piping systems in accordance with ASME B16.5 and EN 1092 specifications. Face to face dimensions adhere to EN 558-1 cat. 1 and ASME B16.10. ANSI 150lbs (and some ANSI 300lbs sizes) as well as DIN PN16/PN40 SBV Ball Valves are available for immediate delivery.

These valves fully adhere to the requirements of the European Pressure Equipment Directive 97/23/EG Appendix III, Module H. Raw material test reports and inspection certificates in accordance with EN 10204 can be furnished on request.

Depending on the intended use, the friction-locked (metal-to-metal) 2-piece bodies are available in epoxy-coated 1.0619 cast steel (ASTM A216 WCB) or in solid 1.4408 stainless steel (CF-8M / AISI 316). ISO top flanges allow quarter-turn actuators to be mounted directly to the valves, eliminating the need for mounting brackets or couplers. A distinguishing feature of Swissfluid SBV Ball Valves is the blowout-proof one-piece ball-stem assembly. This design feature greatly guarantees extended service life of the valve and hysteresis-free control operations.

Long-lasting coating materials of the highest quality, such as PFA, PFA-AS (anti-static), PVDF or ETFE are used for the lining of the bodies and ball encapsulations. One-piece ball-stem assemblies made of solid SS316L, Titanium Gr. 2, Hastelloy C are available as well as ceramic balls with interlocked SS stems. Standard configuration balls offer a full-port cylindrical passage of media. V-Port balls for control applications, Cs configuration and vented balls are also available. The notched stem with the rated breaking point outside the valve is an important additional safety feature for environmental protection.

Leak free requirements over the whole pressure and temperature range of 1mbar to 16 bar resp. -40°C to +200°C (0.01 psi to 232psi / -40°F to +392°F) per EN 12266-1 and API 598 are made possible by the metal-to-metal joint of the 2 body halves, and the maintenance-free dynamically-loaded stem, in accordance with TA Luft (VDI 2440 and DIN EN ISO 15848-1). The choice of body linings and ball encapsulations impact the referenced pressure and temperature ranges. Factory spare parts are easily replaced in the field

Highly corrosive media, hot liquids, steam, toxic gases, etc. in demanding process applications severely test the longevity, quality, functionality and safety of our valves.
