Hastelloy C276/b3 Floating Ball Valve

Middleeast Valve is the reputable industrial valve manufacturer that specialize in custom solutions such as the Hastelloy C276/B3 Floating Ball Valve. Its purpose is for extreme corrosion resistance and trouble-free shut-off and is perfectly suited for applications of aggressive chemicals and high-pressure systems in tough industries.

 Definition

A Hastelloy C276/B3 Floating Ball Valve is a quarter-turn ball valve with two seat rings to hold the ball in position for limited movement for a tight seal. Constructed from high-performance Hastelloy alloys—C276 for widespread corrosion resistance and B3 for superior performance under reducing environments—this valve finds application in high-critical processes involving corrosive media.

 Major Components

Key components are the valve body, floating ball, stem, seat ring, body seal and actuator. The application of Hastelloy alloy offer greater protection against oxidizing and reducing chemical such as hydrochloric acid and chlorine compound.

 Working Mechanism

When the valve handle or actuator rotates 90 degrees, the ball turns inside the valve body to open or shut the flow path. In the closed position, the ball seats against the downstream seat under line pressure, forming a leak-tight seal.

 Advantages

  • Superior corrosion resistance in hostile environments
  • Low torque operation with compact design
  • Leak-tight sealing for high-pressure applications
  • Low maintenance and strong construction
  • Applicable for both automated and manual control
