KTM Cryogenic Ball Valves

KTM Ball Valves Model Cryogenic - 6278 Ball Valves for Low Temperature and Cryogenic Services

KTM ball valves have been widely used inlow temperature and cryogenic applications, including LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) which is fast becoming a better alternative source of energy. With a proven design and after many successful references, the KTM brand name continues to be preferred by end-users as the process quality ball valve of choice.

Features

?Extension bonnet protects the gland packing. Two types of extension bonnet (short and long) are available to better locate the “Gland Packing” at ambient temperature zone. This will protect it from freeze-damage caused by low temperature fluid.?Cavity pressure relief ?Excellent seat & seal design minimises leakage?Low operating torque for smoother operations?Fire safe design ?Fugitive emission compliance ?Rigid body construction minimises thermal shrinkage

Standards

?ASME B16.34, B16.5?BS 6755, BS 6364 (Valves for cryogenic service)?Shell MESC 77/306 ?CE marking (PED) 97/23/EC
