Product catalog summary
Overview: The document is a datasheet for the SOMAS 3-piece full bore ball valve, edition 2010-04. It details the specifications, materials, and configurations available for the valve, which is suitable for various liquids and gases in process industries.
Specifications: The valve is available in three configurations based on the end connections: threaded ends (S36 FBG), weld ends (S36 FBS), and flanged ends (S36 FBF). The nominal pressure is PN 50, with nominal sizes ranging from DN 8 to DN 100 depending on the configuration.
Design and Materials: The valve features a maintenance-free design with easy disassembly for inspection and replacement of parts. It includes two types of seat materials: standard PTFE and PTFE 25 (carbon filled) for steam applications. The body, ball, and end caps are made of CF8M, equivalent to AISI 316 stainless steel.
Certifications and Compliance: The valves comply with the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) and are CE marked (CE 0035). They can also be delivered with an EN 10204-3.1 certificate.
Pressure and Temperature Ratings: The document includes a pressure and temperature curve for the valve, indicating the operational limits for both PTFE and PTFE 25 seat materials.
Actuation: The valves are designed for manual operation or can be equipped with actuators for remote control. They come with an ISO standard actuator mounting flange and can be customized with various actuators and accessories as per specifications.
Ordering Information: The document provides a valve specification system for ordering, detailing the valve type, seat material, and nominal size. Customers are advised to specify the desired valve configuration, actuator type, and any additional accessories.

3-piece full bore ball valve-1

Datasheet 3-piece full bore ball valve S36 FBG Threaded ends S36 FBS Weld ends S36 FBF Flanged ends Nominal pressure PN 50 Nominal size (FBG) DN 8 - 50 Nominal size (FBS) DN 8 - 100 Nominal size (FBF) DN 15 - 100 The SOMAS full bore valve is a 3-piece valve. The valve has two end caps and a valve body with an ISO standard actuator mounting flange. Body and end caps are held together with bolts. The valve is suitable for most liquids and gases within process industries. End caps are available with threaded ends S36 FBG, with short weld ends S36 FBS or S36 FBS-L long weld ends and with flanges S36 FBF. The valve design is maintenance free. To disassemble only one screw need to be removed (DN 8-50) before the body can be tilted out. Inspection and/or replacement of wearing parts can easily take place without costly dismantling. Two bolts have to be removed for valve sizes DN 65-100. Two types of seat material are available: PTFE as standard and PTFE 25 (carbon filled) for steam applications. The valves can also be delivered with a EN 10204-3.1 certificate. The valves comply with PED and are marked CE 0035.
