The Client: A Geothermal Power Plant Operator
The client operates a 50MW facility where saturated steam is used to drive turbines. The Plant Manager, Mr. Ivanov, faced recurring failures with their existing 12-inch (DN300) turbine bypass isolation valves. "The constant thermal cycling caused stem leakage and seat degradation," he explained. "We needed a valve engineered for this specific duty, not a generic product. We required a partner who could provide a complete, documented engineering solution, from casting to final assembly."
For this critical application, they needed a supplier who could prove the quality and rationale behind every component.
Surviving millions of cycles in a high-temperature, erosive environment.
The challenge was threefold: 1. **Thermal Fatigue:** The valve had to withstand frequent temperature swings from ambient to 180°C without loss of sealing or mechanical integrity. 2. **Erosion Resistance:** The low-quality saturated steam contained moisture droplets that could erode the disc and seat over time. 3. **Verifiable Quality:** The client demanded full material traceability and documentation for every critical manufacturing step to satisfy their stringent internal safety protocols.
We proposed an integrated solution built around our **Electric Actuated ASTM A216 WCB Carbon Steel Lug Butterfly Valve**, enhanced with a series of specified manufacturing and material treatments.
We began with raw ASTM A216 WCB steel, with a tightly controlled carbon content (0.22-0.25%) for an optimal balance of strength and ductility. After casting, every valve body underwent a crucial **normalizing heat treatment**. The castings were heated to 915°C (1680°F), held for 2 hours to ensure full austenitic transformation, and then air-cooled. This process refines the grain structure, relieves casting stresses, and significantly improves the material's toughness and resistance to thermal fatigue. A sample from each batch was sectioned for metallographic analysis, with reports provided to the client confirming a fine, uniform ferrite-pearlite microstructure.
Recognizing the importance of perfect alignment, we machined the valve's critical surfaces to exacting tolerances. The **lug thread holes were individually inspected with calibrated go/no-go gauges** to guarantee reliable bolt connections. The valve seat bore was machined to a concentricity of 0.05mm relative to the stem bore, ensuring even seat compression, which reduces torque and extends seat life dramatically under high-cycle conditions.
We engineered the valve's wetted parts specifically for this application. The stem was machined from **17-4PH stainless steel**, precipitation-hardened for maximum strength and resistance to stem twisting. The disc was cast in CF8M (316 SS), with the disc sealing edge receiving a **hard-facing of Stellite 6**, providing a tough, erosion-resistant surface against the wet steam. For the seat, we specified **RTFE (Reinforced Teflon)**, which offers the required temperature resistance of PTFE with enhanced resistance to deformation under pressure.
We paired the valve with a high-temperature rated electric actuator, capable of modulating control and providing diagnostic feedback. Crucially, each valve was marked with **deep-cast, permanent traceability numbers** (Material Heat No., Pressure Class, etc.), as requested in the client's specification. This provided a permanent record linking the physical valve to its material certificates and heat treatment reports, ensuring full accountability.
Engineered for your demanding application.
The key factor is temperature and pressure. Carbon Steel (ASTM A216 WCB) is the superior choice for industrial high-temperature and high-pressure service. It maintains its structural integrity at elevated temperatures where ductile iron would fail. It is the standard material for applications like steam, thermal oil, gas, and demanding chemical processes, while ductile iron is primarily used for water and general utility services at moderate temperatures.
We ensure quality through a strict, multi-stage process. First, we verify the raw material's chemical composition using PMI testing. More importantly, every WCB casting undergoes a crucial normalizing heat treatment. This process refines the grain structure, relieves internal stresses, and significantly improves the material's toughness and resistance to thermal fatigue. We provide full documentation, including Material Test Reports (MTR) and heat treatment curves, to guarantee compliance and performance.
The key benefit is its suitability for dead-end service. Each threaded lug hole allows the valve to be bolted to one flange while the other side of the pipeline is removed for maintenance. This isolates a section of the system without needing to drain the entire line. This feature is invaluable in industrial plants, refineries, and complex piping networks.
This is a smart, cost-effective engineering solution. The Carbon Steel body provides the required strength for high-pressure/temperature containment at a lower cost than a full stainless steel valve. The "wetted parts"—the disc and stem (e.g., SS316, CF8M)—are made of stainless steel to provide superior corrosion resistance against the process medium. This bimetallic construction offers the best of both worlds: strength and durability in a cost-efficient package.
Our electric valves support two primary control methods: On/Off (Quarter-turn), operated by simply applying power, and Modulating Control, which uses a standard 4-20mA or 0-10V analog signal for precise positioning. They are available in various standard voltages, including AC 220V, AC 380V, and DC 24V, allowing direct integration with modern PLC, DCS, or Building Automation Systems (BAS).
Each unit is a fully integrated assembly. Key features include a manual override handwheel for emergency operation, electronic over-torque protection to prevent motor damage, and a clear visual position indicator. For critical applications, we offer optional fail-safe modules (battery backup) that automatically drive the valve to a pre-set safe position (open or closed) upon power loss. The standard housing is IP67 rated, with IP68 available for submersible conditions.
