What is an Electric Actuated Fire Safe Carbon Steel 3 Piece Ball Valve Used For?
Electric actuated fire safe carbon steel 3-piece ball valves are used in high-risk industrial applications where safety and reliability are paramount. These valves are ideal for the oil and gas industry, chemical processing, and petrochemical plants, where they manage the flow of flammable or hazardous fluids. The fire-safe design ensures the valve maintains its integrity and prevents leakage during fire conditions, enhancing safety and compliance with stringent industry standards. The carbon steel construction provides excellent strength and durability, suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature environments. The 3-piece design allows for easy maintenance and repair without removing the valve from the pipeline, and the electric actuator offers precise, automated control for improved operational efficiency and safety.
Key Features
Carbon Steel 3-Piece Fire Safe Ball Valve: The valve is constructed from high-quality carbon steel, offering excellent durability and corrosion resistance. The 3-piece design ensures easy maintenance and repair, while the full bore provides maximum flow capacity with minimal pressure drop.
Fire Safe and Certified: The valve is fire safe and holds DNV and NACE MR0175 certifications, making it suitable for use in hazardous and explosive environments, and ensuring compliance with stringent safety standards.
BSPP Threads: The valve features BSPP (British Standard Pipe Parallel) threads, ensuring secure, leak-free connections.
Viton Seal and CTFE Seat Materials: Equipped with Viton seals and CTFE (Chlorotrifluoroethylene) seats, the valve provides excellent chemical resistance and durability, ensuring long-term reliable performance even in harsh conditions.
Wide Temperature Range: The valve operates effectively within a temperature range of -20°C to +220°C, making it suitable for various environmental conditions.
High Pressure Rating: The valve can handle a maximum working pressure of up to 138 bar, offering robust performance under high-pressure conditions.
ISO 5211 Direct Mount: Equipped with an ISO 5211 direct mount, the valve guarantees full compatibility with standard market actuators, ensuring ease of installation and operation.
J+J J4CS On/Off Electric Actuator: The valve is fitted with a J+J J4CS20 electric actuator, providing reliable on/off control for 1/4 turn (90º) valves.
Multi-Voltage Operation: The actuator supports a wide voltage range (24-240V DC/V AC 50/60Hz), offering flexibility for integration into various electrical systems.
Visual Operation Control (VCO): A multicoloured LED light provides continuous status feedback, allowing users to easily monitor the actuator’s operation.
Electronic Torque Limiter (ETS): The actuator includes an electronic torque limiter with auto gearbox relaxing, preventing damage from over-torquing and ensuring long-term reliability.
Failsafe and Modulating Options: The J4CS actuator can be configured for fail-safe and modulating operations, offering enhanced functionality and adaptability to different operational requirements.
Brushless Motor: The brushless motor design reduces maintenance, improves efficiency, and minimises heat and noise, ensuring robust and efficient performance.
