    What Are the Commonly Used Non-metallic Valve Materials?
    Jun 04, 2022
    1. Nitrile rubber valve material   Nitrile rubber valve materials are rated for temperatures ranging from -18°C to 100°C. It is an excellent general purpose rubber material for water, gas, oil and grease, gasoline (except gasoline with additives), alcohol and glycol, LPG, propane and butane, fuel oil and many other media. At the same time, it also has good wear resistance and deformation resistance.   2. Ethylene propylene rubber valve material   The rated temperature range of the ethylene propylene rubber seat is -28°C~120°C. Excellent ozone resistance and weather resistance, good electrical insulation performance, good resistance to polar solvents and inorganic media. Therefore, it can be widely used in HVAC industry, water, phosphate ester, alcohol, glycol, etc. Ethylene-propylene rubber seats are not recommended for use in hydrocarbon organic solvents and oils, chlorinated hydrocarbons, turpentine or other petroleum-based greases.   3. PTFE valve material   The rated temperature range of PTFE industrial valve material is -32℃~200℃. Excellent high temperature resistance and chemical corrosion resistance. Because PTFE has high density and excellent anti-permeability, it can also prevent corrosion from most chemical media. Conductive PTFE is a modified version of PTFE that allows current to pass through the lining thereby eliminating the insulating properties of PTFE. Because of its conductive properties, conductive PTFE cannot be tested for its quality by electric sparks.   4. Fluorine rubber valve material   The rated temperature of the fluororubber seat is -18°C~150°C. This material has high temperature resistance and excellent chemical resistance. Suitable for hydrocarbon products, low and high concentrations of mineral acids, but not for steam media and water (poor water resistance).   5. UHMWPE valve material   The rated temperature range of UHMWPE valve material is -32℃~88℃. This material has better low temperature resistance than PTFE, but still has excellent chemical resistance. Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene also has good wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and can be used in high abrasive situations.   6. Silicon copper rubber valve material   Silicon-copper rubber is a polymer with organic groups whose main chain is composed of silicon-oxygen atoms. The rated temperature range is -100℃~300℃. It has good heat resistance and temperature resistance, excellent electrical insulation performance and high chemical inertness. Suitable for organic acid and low concentration inorganic acid, dilute alkali and concentrated alkali.   7. Graphite valve material   Graphite valve material is a crystal of carbon, a non-metallic material with silver-gray color, soft texture and metallic luster. It has unique physical and chemical properties such as high temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, thermal shock resistance, high strength, good toughness, high self-lubricating strength, strong thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity. It has special oxidation resistance, self-lubrication and plasticity at high temperature, and also has good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and adhesion. It can be used as a filler or performance improver for rubber, plastic and various composite materials to improve the wear resistance, compression resistance or conductivity of the material. Graphite is usually used to make valve gaskets, packing and valve seats.

  • Where is the Electric Triple Eccentric Butterfly Valve Mainly Suitable for Use?
    Where is the Electric Triple Eccentric Butterfly Valve Mainly Suitable for Use?
    Jun 04, 2022
    At this stage, the electronically controlled triple eccentric butterfly valve is mainly aimed at a regulating machine for flow. At present, because the pressure loss of the butterfly valve in the pipeline is relatively large, of course, in addition to the above, it should also be considered that the butterfly plate needs to bear a medium pressure of the pipeline when it is closed. In addition, the operating temperature of the elastic valve seat material also needs to be considered in the case of high temperature.   1. High sealing packing structure of triple eccentric butterfly valve   On the leakage problem of the valve, traditionally, the leakage of the valve seat is often concentrated, that is, the internal leakage, and the leakage of the packing part, that is, the external leakage, is ignored. In fact, in the contemporary society where environmental issues are increasingly valued, it has become an indisputable fact that external leakage is far more harmful than internal leakage. The triple offset butterfly valve is a rotary type valve, and its stem action is only 90 ° rotation. Compared with gate valve, globe valve and other valve stem action with spiral multi-turn reciprocating motion, the wear degree of the packing part is very low. The service life is very long, and the highest standard design is adopted in the external leakage prevention structure such as packing seal, so that the standard sealing performance can be guaranteed to be less than 100ppm when the external leakage test is carried out according to the specifications.   2. Three eccentric butterfly valve refractory structure   Many valves claim to have a fire-resistant construction, but the vast majority of them use a soft-hard dual-seat construction to reduce leakage, which can be dangerous. Because the incomplete combustion of the soft-sealed valve seat during a fire will cause stress on the metal support valve seat and deformation due to temperature difference, resulting in failure of the refractory function. Therefore, currently Europe and the United States are gradually eliminating this kind of refractory valve that does not live up to its name. This ensures that it can be used in various hazardous areas such as petroleum, petrochemical and so on. In the conservative United Kingdom, the valves used in all key parts of its oil fields are almost all covered by butterfly valves, which is the best example.   3. Application occasions of triple eccentric butterfly valve   At present, the structural length and overall height of the valve body are relatively small, the opening and closing speed is relatively fast, and it also has some characteristics of fluid control. The structure principle of the butterfly valve is mainly suitable for the manufacture of large-diameter valves. And when the butterfly valve is required for flow control, the size and model of the butterfly valve should be correctly selected to ensure that the butterfly valve can work correctly and efficiently.   In the process of throttling, regulating and mixing the medium with mud, the main requirements are that the length of the structure is short and the speed of opening and closing is fast. At present, the pressure difference of low pressure cut-off is relatively small. At this stage, it is recommended to choose a triple eccentric butterfly valve for adjustment and maintenance. And in two-position adjustment, narrowing channel, low noise, cavitation, gasification, a small amount of atmospheric leakage, and abrasive media can choose butterfly valve. At present, for the main throttling adjustment under special working conditions, tight sealing is required. Maybe when the butterfly valve is used under severe wear and low temperature (cryogenic) conditions, a specially designed metal sealing belt adjustment device is required, using triple eccentric or double eccentricity. Eccentric special butterfly valve.

  • How to Choose the Valve in the Water Supply Network?
    How to Choose the Valve in the Water Supply Network?
    Jun 04, 2022
    The water supply network is composed of various pipe accessories and fittings such as pipes and valves. According to various needs (water volume of the pipe network, scheduling and deployment of water pressure, water stoppage for maintenance and repair, connection of old and new pipelines, flushing of pipelines, etc.), the valve must be opened and closed every day. The service life and quality of the valve determine the normal operation of the pipe network and play a pivotal role in the pipe network, which must be given great attention. Since the pipe network is a bridge between water supply enterprises and the vast number of users, it can be said that the quality of a water supply enterprise's management work is reflected in the normal operation of the pipe network; and the normal operation of the water supply pipe network is related to the valve. Life and quality are closely related.   1. Reliability of valve quality   The quality of the valve is reflected in the whole process of valve manufacturing. There must be a more complete quality assurance system. The indicator of the number of times the valve is switched on and off is of little significance, and it does not necessarily have to meet the test of more than 5,000 times of switching. Because the valves in the pipe network are not frequently opened and closed. Sometimes, some valves only open once every ten years. In actual work, we found that the positioning screws on the butterfly valve are loose during installation, and some have no bolt threads at all.   2. Flexibility of valve operation   It is important that high-quality valves operate flexibly. Flexible operation is not only reflected in which transmission mode is selected, but also in the machining accuracy of the components related to the transmission mechanism. For example, in the transmission mode of the butterfly valve. There are generally two transmission methods: screw nut type and worm gear type. The general lead screw nut type is characterized by slow opening and closing at both ends and fast in the middle, which is easier to operate. However, due to the small torque of the lead screw, it is difficult for the operator to grasp the degree of opening and closing of the valve plate during operation, and it is easy to occur that the valve is closed and the valve is closed. Still operating twists and breaks the lead screw. The worm gear type is generally easy to close the position. At the same time, the sealing of the valve stem of the gate valve and the matching of the rotational speed and torque of the butterfly valve transmission part are the long-standing and difficult problems of valve operation. Therefore, the choice of transmission mode should be based on the situation of each water supply enterprise, after listening to the operator's opinions, and closely cooperate with the manufacturer, so that the selected valve can not only operate flexibly, but also meet the needs of use and work.   3. Reasonability of valve price   Valves should have a reasonable price, and a reasonable price is not necessarily the lowest price. If you only focus on the lowest price, it is easy to mislead manufacturers in order to promote their products, compete to lower the price, or even sell them below the cost price of the product. In order not to lose money, manufacturers must cut corners on processes and materials, and the valves produced exist. Due to the hidden quality problems, when it is used in the water supply network, the ultimate victim is the user himself. Therefore, we must pay attention to when choosing high-quality valves, encourage manufacturers to use the principle of value engineering, strengthen main functions, remove redundant functions, and optimize system functions. Work hard on management and work hard on cost accounting. It should be noted that a reasonable price can be the lowest price, but the lowest price is not necessarily a reasonable price.   4. Guarantee of valve after-sales service   When the valve is used in the water supply network, there will be such and other problems, some of which belong to the valve itself, and some are caused by interference and damage from external factors, brutal construction, illegal operation, and poor management and use. But no matter what the reason, the valve problem will affect the operation of the pipeline network, which requires the cooperation of the valve maker. Therefore, the valve manufacturer needs to have a good after-sales service guarantee when selecting the valve. Once there is a problem with the valve, we can rush to the scene in the shortest time and solve the problem as soon as possible.

  • Difference Between PFA Lined Valves and PTFE(teflon) Lined Valves
    Difference Between PFA Lined Valves and PTFE(teflon) Lined Valves
    Jun 04, 2023
    PFA (Perfluoroalkoxy) lined ball valves and PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) lined ball valves are both types of lined valves designed to handle corrosive and aggressive media. While they share similarities, there are key differences between the two in terms of material properties and performance characteristics.     Material Composition:   PFA Lined Ball Valves : PFA is a type of polymer that is similar to PTFE(teflon). It exhibits high chemical resistance and a broad temperature range. PFA lining is often used in ball valves to protect against corrosion and enhance the valve's performance in aggressive environments.   PTFE(teflon) Lined Ball Valves: PTFE is another fluoropolymer with excellent chemical resistance. PTFE lined ball valves use a lining made of PTFE to provide a barrier between the corrosive media and the valve's internal components.     Temperature Resistance:   PFA Lined Ball Valves: PFA generally has a higher continuous-use temperature compared to PTFE. This makes PFA lined ball valves suitable for applications involving elevated temperatures.   PTFE Lined Ball Valves : PTFE can withstand a broad range of temperatures but may have limitations in high-temperature applications compared to PFA.   Flexibility:   PFA Lined Ball Valves: PFA is known for its flexibility, allowing for easy lining of complex shapes. This flexibility can be advantageous in the manufacturing of valves with intricate designs.   PTFE Lined Ball Valves: PTFE is also flexible, but PFA may be preferred in applications where a high degree of flexibility is critical.     Chemical Resistance:   PFA Lined Ball Valves : Both PFA and PTFE exhibit excellent chemical resistance, but PFA may offer slightly better resistance to certain chemicals in specific applications.   PTFE Lined Ball Valves : PTFE is widely recognized for its exceptional chemical inertness, making it suitable for handling a broad range of corrosive substances.   Cost:   PFA Lined Ball Valves: PFA is generally considered a more expensive material compared to PTFE. Therefore, PFA lined ball valves may be more costly.   PTFE Lined Ball Valves: PTFE is a widely used and cost-effective material, making PTFE lined ball valves a more economical option in some cases.   In summary, while both PFA lined ball valves and PTFE lined ball valves are designed for corrosive applications, the choice between them depends on specific operating conditions, including temperature requirements, chemical exposure, and budget considerations. PFA lined ball valves may be preferred in high-temperature applications, while PTFE lined ball valves are known for their broad chemical resistance and cost-effectiveness.   If you need any of PFA PTFE PEP Teflon lined valves, please contat us now: info@geko-union.com!

  • How to Select ISO 12944 Coating Systems for Valves in different environment?
    How to Select ISO 12944 Coating Systems for Valves in different environment?
    Jun 04, 2023
    How do you correctly choose a coating system for your valves? With the extensive content of ISO 12944, how can you determine which environment your product falls into among C2, C2, C3, C4, C5, CX, lm1, lm2, lm3, lm4? Users mention that the coating's service life must reach 15 years—how do GEKO control valves prove this, and so on? To address these questions, GEKO control valves have summarized them into the ISO 12944 4S method for reference.   The 4S method is as follows: Step 1: Confirm the corrosion category (ISO 12944-2). Step 2: Confirm the durability of the protective coating (ISO 12944-1). Step 3: Select the coating system required for the project (ISO 12944-5). Step 4: Coating system laboratory validation (ISO 12944-6, optional).     Detailed description is as follows:   1) Confirming Corrosion Category (ISO 12944-2) The atmospheric environment is divided into six atmospheric corrosion categories: C1: Very low corrosion (Very low) C2: Low corrosion (Low) C3: Medium corrosion (Medium) C4: High corrosion (High) C5: Very high corrosion (Very High) CX: Extreme corrosion (Extreme)     Immersed in water or buried in the soil is divided into 4 categories: Im1: Freshwater Im2: Seawater or slightly brackish water without cathodic protection Im3: Soil Im4: Seawater or slightly brackish water with cathodic protection   2)Confirming the durability of protective valve coatings (ISO 12944-1) The standard specifies four different durability ranges: Low (L): Not exceeding 7 years Medium (M): 7-15 years High (H): 15-25 years Very high (VH): >25 years The durability of protective valve coatings is not a "guarantee period." The guarantee period is usually shorter than the durability, and there are no rules specifying the relationship between these two times. The "environmental type" and the "durability of the coating system" are the main parameters for selecting a coating system and must be given attention.     3)Selecting the Coating System Required for the valve Project (ISO 12944-5 or ISO 12944-9 in CX Environment) Based on the substrate, choose the minimum recommended coating system as per the standard. The coating systems in the standard are determined based on field application experience and laboratory performance test results according to ISO 12944-6. They provide valuable references. An example is the C2 table as shown below:     Points to Note:   1.The listed systems have been proven effective in practice, but it's not possible to list all coating categories. Other similar systems may also be feasible.   2.Under a given substrate type, coating performance can vary significantly depending on the specific composition of the coating. The substrate types described in Chapter 6 are just examples, and other types of valve coatings can also be used.   3.New technologies are constantly evolving and are often influenced by government regulations. Technologies proven effective through the following methods are acceptable:   a) After the application of these new technologies, tracking and recording verify their effectiveness.   b) Laboratory test results meet at least the requirements of ISO 12944-6 and ISO 12944-9.     4. Valve Coating System Laboratory Validation (ISO 12944-6) or Pre-Certification of Coating Systems (ISO 12944-9) In accordance with the standards, select a coating system. If the owner requires laboratory testing, the coating system must undergo laboratory testing, primarily based on ISO 12944-6 or ISO 12944-9. If your coating is a new technology, laboratory validation is necessary.   Step 1: Confirm the corrosion category (ISO 12944-2)   In this case, the valve project is located in a coastal industrial area, typically associated with energy, petroleum, and chemical industries. The environment is characterized by high humidity, high salinity, and high corrosion. Therefore, the selected environmental type based on the table is C5.     Step 2: Confirming the durability of protective valve coatings for project (ISO 12944-1)   The design service life is 20 years. According to the table, the selected range is 15 years to 25 years, so the durability choice is "High" (in practice, the durability of many valve coatings may also consider the construction cycle, typically assumed to be around 2 years).     Step 3: Select the coating system required for the valve project (ISO 12944-5)   The substrate of the sample is carbon steel, the environment is C5, and the durability is "High." Therefore, GEKO control valves choose to refer to Table B.1 and B.2 in Appendix C of ISO 12944-5, selecting coating systems for carbon steel under corrosion category C5. Specifically, ISO 12944-5/C5.03 or ISO 12944-5/C5.07 may be suitable.     Step 4: Coating System Laboratory Validation (ISO 12944-6, optional)   Conduct experimental tests to validate the selected coating system. This step may not be necessary if the user agrees to use the system recommended by the standard. However, if there is a desire to reduce potential disputes in the contract, testing confirmation can be performed before signing or periodic inspections can be conducted during the mid-project phase to ensure project quality.     According to ISO 12944-6, the testing items for C5-H are as follows:     After testing three panels, two of them meet the standard requirements, and it is deemed as compliant.   If you are looking for a reliable control valve ( Liquid, gas, powder) supplier for your project, please don’t hesitate to contact us: info@geko-union.com!
