2-Piece Titanium Floating Ball Valve Ti Gr1 Gr2 Class 150 Class 300 for Acetic Acid Flow

2-Piece Titanium Floating Ball Valve Ti Gr1, Gr2 Class 150, Class 300 for Acetic Acid Flow

The 2-Piece Titanium Floating Ball Valve is specifically designed for controlling the flow of acetic acid and other corrosive chemicals in industrial applications. Constructed from Gr1 and Gr2 Titanium alloys, this valve is ideal for environments that demand corrosion resistance, high strength, and reliable sealing under various pressure conditions.

Key Features and Specifications

Material Composition:

• Titanium Gr1 (Commercially Pure Titanium): Gr1 offers outstanding corrosion resistance and excellent mechanical properties for applications where the valve faces minimal mechanical stresses but is exposed to highly corrosive fluids like acetic acid.
• Titanium Gr2 (Commercially Pure Titanium): Provides a good balance of strength and corrosion resistance, making it more suitable for applications where moderate mechanical stresses and high chemical resistance are needed.
• Both materials ensure that the valve is highly resistant to corrosion in aggressive chemical environments like acetic acid, acetic anhydride, and other acidic substances.

2-Piece Floating Ball Valve Design:

• The floating ball design ensures that the ball is not fixed in place but instead is free to float within the valve body. This results in a tight seal when the valve is closed, enhancing its ability to handle corrosive and hazardous fluids like acetic acid.
• Two-piece construction allows for easy installation, maintenance, and replacement of parts, which reduces the cost and downtime required for maintenance.

Pressure Classes:

• Class 150: Suitable for applications with lower pressure requirements (up to 150 psi), ideal for less demanding industrial setups.
• Class 300: Rated for medium pressure applications (up to 300 psi), making it versatile for higher-pressure environments where acetic acid may be transported or processed.

Corrosion Resistance:

• Titanium Gr1 and Gr2 are known for their excellent resistance to corrosive environments, including acetic acid. These materials ensure that the valve can be safely used without the fear of corrosion-related failures, even after extended exposure to the acid.

Temperature Range:

• The titanium alloys used in this valve can withstand temperatures ranging from -50°C to 300°C, making it suitable for both low and high-temperature environments. This range allows the valve to operate reliably in various processes, including those involving acetic acid under varying temperature conditions.

Flow Control and Performance:

• The floating ball valve design ensures a quick, reliable shutoff of the flow, which is crucial for controlling the passage of acetic acid or similar corrosive fluids.
• The quarter-turn operation makes it easy to control the flow with a simple rotation of the valve handle, offering minimal maintenance and reliable sealing.

Seal Materials:

• The valve seals are typically made from PTFE or other chemically resistant materials like PFA or FKM. These materials are resistant to chemical degradation and are capable of sealing effectively in acetic acid and other harsh fluids.

Applications:

• Acetic Acid Flow Control: This valve is ideal for regulating the flow of acetic acid in chemical manufacturing, pulp and paper industries, and food processing, where precise flow control and resistance to acid corrosion are critical.
• Chemical Processing: In addition to acetic acid, this valve can be used in processes involving other organic acids or corrosive chemicals.
• Laboratories: Suitable for laboratory settings where controlled flow of acidic solutions is necessary for research or testing.

Technical Specifications

Advantages of Titanium Floating Ball Valve for Acetic Acid Flow:

1. Exceptional Corrosion Resistance:

   • Titanium Gr1 and Gr2 alloys offer superior resistance to corrosion, particularly against acetic acid, ensuring longer service life and reduced maintenance costs.

2. Reliable Sealing:

   • The floating ball design ensures that the ball moves slightly when the valve is operated, achieving a reliable seal without the risk of leakage, even under high pressures.

3. Versatile Pressure Ratings:

   • Available in Class 150 and Class 300 pressure ratings, this valve can handle a wide range of pressures, making it adaptable to different acetic acid flow requirements.

4. Reduced Maintenance:

   • The two-piece design allows for easy disassembly, inspection, and maintenance. The corrosion resistance of titanium reduces wear and tear, requiring less frequent servicing and leading to lower operational costs.

5. Wide Temperature Range:

   • With the ability to perform in temperatures ranging from -50°C to 300°C, this valve can be used in a variety of environments, making it highly versatile for different industrial applications involving acetic acid.

6. Low Weight:

   • Titanium is known for being much lighter than other metals like stainless steel, which makes these valves easier to handle during installation and reduces transportation costs.

7. Long-Term Cost Savings:

   • Although the upfront cost of titanium valves may be higher than those made from other materials, their durability, low maintenance needs, and corrosion resistance result in significant long-term savings by minimizing replacement and downtime.

Conclusion

The 2-Piece Titanium Floating Ball Valve for acetic acid flow, made from Gr1 and Gr2 titanium alloys, is an ideal solution for controlling the flow of acetic acid and other highly corrosive chemicals in industrial processes. With superior corrosion resistance, reliable performance under varying pressure conditions, and ease of maintenance, this valve is a cost-effective and durable choice for industries that require reliable, long-lasting equipment for their critical applications.
