Application Case Study

Automating a Chemical Batching System for a Thai Specialty Chemicals Plant

Client: A mid-sized specialty chemical manufacturer in Thailand.
Project: Upgrading a manual chemical batching process to a fully automated system to improve product consistency and operational safety.
Product: 45 units of Pneumatic Actuated Carbon Steel Wafer Butterfly Valves (DN80-DN200), specified with WCB Body, SS316 Disc, and PTFE Seat for chemical compatibility.

The Challenge: Mitigating Automation Risks Within a Strict Budget

The client's primary objective was to eliminate batch-to-batch inconsistencies caused by manual valve timing errors. However, their past experience with low-cost actuated valves was poor, marked by premature failures at the actuator-stem connection and seat leakage after only a few thousand cycles. Quotations from premium European brands were approximately 40% over the project's capital expenditure budget. The challenge was to find a manufacturing partner who could provide a reliable, high-cycle automation solution that was both technically robust and financially viable, avoiding the pitfalls of sourcing from typical trading companies.

The Solution: A Partnership Focused on Manufacturing Integrity

JRVAL was selected based on our vertical integration as a foundry-direct manufacturer, which allowed us to provide verifiable quality control from raw material to final assembly. Our solution focused on addressing the client's specific technical pain points.

Foundry-Direct Material Control & Traceability

As a manufacturer with a 20-year casting heritage, we controlled the entire material lifecycle. We provided EN 10204 3.1 Material Test Certificates (MTCs) for each heat of the ASTM A216 WCB castings. Our internal standard ensures the chemical composition, particularly carbon and manganese levels, is maintained in the upper quartile of the ASTM standard, which enhances structural integrity and durability in high-cycle applications. This level of transparency gave the client's engineering team complete confidence in the valve body's material foundation.

Precision-Engineered Actuator & Valve Interface

Recognizing the client's previous failures, we focused on the mechanical interface. The valve stem's square drive and the pneumatic actuator's output shaft were CNC-machined to a tolerance of ±0.05mm. This precision fit minimizes mechanical play, significantly reducing shear stress and eliminating the primary failure mode of connection wear common in less precisely assembled units. Each assembled valve underwent a 50-cycle operational test at our facility before shipment.

Quantifiable Cost Optimization & Project Timeline Adherence

Our integrated manufacturing model enabled us to provide the complete solution at a price point that resulted in a 28% cost saving compared to the initial European quotes, successfully bringing the project within budget. Leveraging our 81,426 m² facility and 11 key CNC centers, we managed a production lead time of 7 weeks for the full order, delivering 3 weeks ahead of the client's 10-week installation deadline.

Transparent & Verifiable Quality Assurance

Each of the 45 valves underwent a hydrostatic shell test at 1.5x PN16 and a bi-directional seat test at 1.1x PN16, achieving zero leakage which exceeds the requirements of API 598 Rate A. A complete documentation package, including MTCs, dimensional inspection reports from calibrated instruments, and individual pressure test certificates, was provided. We openly state that client-appointed third-party inspections (e.g., SGS, Bureau Veritas) are welcomed at our facility at the client's expense, demonstrating our confidence in our processes.

Comprehensive Warranty and After-Sales Support

We supported our product with a 24-month warranty covering the entire valve and pneumatic actuator assembly. We guarantee free spare part replacement for any quality issues within this period. Our design adheres to international standards, ensuring that wear parts like seats and seals can be easily sourced from the market after the warranty period, thus optimizing the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) from a maintenance perspective. Our technical team remains available for online support to assist with any operational queries.

"We'd been burned by actuated valves before, specifically with failures at the stem-actuator interface. JRVAL's focus on the machining tolerances for that connection was the key differentiator. Their valves have now been in high-cycle operation for over 18 months with zero performance degradation. The comprehensive documentation package made our internal QA validation straightforward and efficient."

Technical FAQ: Pneumatic Actuated Wafer Butterfly Valves

How do you ensure the reliability of the pneumatic actuator and its valve interface?

We engineer the valve and actuator as a unified system for maximum longevity in high-cycle applications. Reliability is built-in through:

  • Precision Machining: The valve stem's square drive and the actuator's output shaft are CNC-machined to a tolerance of ±0.05mm. This eliminates mechanical "play," the primary cause of premature wear and failure at the connection point.
  • Factory Cycle Testing: Every complete valve-actuator assembly is subjected to a 50-cycle operational test at our facility to verify smooth actuation and flag any potential issues before shipment.
  • Quality Actuator Sourcing: We partner with proven actuator suppliers whose products feature high-quality seals and durable aluminum alloy bodies for consistent performance.

What information do you need to correctly size an actuator for my application?

To ensure optimal performance and prevent oversizing (cost) or undersizing (failure), we require the following key parameters:

  • Line Pressure: Both maximum static and differential pressure across the valve disc.
  • Media Type & Temperature: This affects material compatibility and sealing torque.
  • Actuation Type: Double-Acting (air to open, air to close) or Single-Acting (spring-return).
  • Available Air Supply: The minimum and maximum plant air pressure (Bar/PSI) available to the actuator.
  • Fail-Safe Position: For single-acting actuators, specify if the valve should fail-open or fail-close upon loss of air pressure.

How do you guarantee the quality of your ASTM A216 WCB carbon steel body?

As a foundry-direct manufacturer with 20 years of casting expertise, we offer unparalleled material control:

  • Superior Metallurgy: Our WCB castings are held to the upper quartile of the ASTM standard's chemical composition, enhancing strength and long-term durability.
  • Full Traceability: Every valve is supplied with an EN 10204 3.1 Material Test Certificate (MTC), providing a complete chemical and mechanical properties report for your records.
  • In-House Verification: We welcome client-appointed third-party inspectors (e.g., SGS, BV) at our facility for verification, demonstrating our full confidence in our material quality.

Are your wafer valves compatible with different international flange standards?

Absolutely. Our wafer butterfly valves feature a universal body design. The body dimensions and alignment holes are precision-machined to ensure a perfect fit and reliable seal between a wide range of flange standards, including ANSI B16.5 Class 150, DIN PN10/PN16, and JIS 10K/16K. This eliminates alignment issues and simplifies installation in global projects.

What is your warranty policy for the complete valve and actuator assembly?

We provide a comprehensive 24-month warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship for the entire assembly (valve and factory-fitted pneumatic actuator). Because our valves are built to international standards, wear parts like seats are easily sourced and replaced post-warranty, ensuring a low total cost of ownership. Our technical team is available online for prompt troubleshooting and support.
