Choosing the right Corrosion–Resistant Valve for a Pickling Operation
Nil-Cor 310 series ball valve
Nil-Cor 310 glass reinforced vinyl ester flanged ball valves provide a cost effective solution to the problem. Of solid construction, with the body, insert, and ball compression moulded, the valve is designed to easily withstand varying concentrations of Hydrochloric acid and other corrosives in circulation, being resistant to both internal and external corrosion.
The valve stem is a Hastelloy C insert which is over moulded with graphite fibre reinforced vinyl ester. Likewise, the gland plate, with its integral locking plate and the gland bolting, are of Hastelloy C as standard. Seats are of virgin PTFE, seals are PTFE coated Viton and the Stem Packing consists of PTFE chevrons.
With a break out torque of less than 27Nm on a 50mm valve the possibility of damaging the FRP flanges on tanks or pipe, is eliminated.
The Nil-Cor 310 series ball valve is “CE” marked, PED compliant and is available in sizes 25mm to 150mm PN16, (1" to 10" ANSI 150). It has a continuous temperature rating from -46°C to 99°C at 19 Bar. Short term exposures to 149°C are acceptable, but exposures above 177°C should be avoided.
Each valve is hydro-statically shell tested at 20.7bar, and seat tested with air at 1.4 Bar and 5.5 Bar.
