Engineering and configuration
Material, pressure class, end connection, seat system and type of actuation follow the customer's requirement and the agreed code.
From requirement to design
The starting point is the requirement profile of the plant: medium, temperature, pressure, nominal size and installation situation. Design, material and seat system of the ball valve follow from it.
Whether a body is cast or forged depends on nominal size, pressure class and quantity. Both manufacturing routes are available.
| Medium | Composition, solids content, corrosivity |
|---|---|
| Temperature | Operating and design temperature, from cryogenic to hot |
| Pressure | Operating and design pressure, required pressure class |
| Nominal size | Nominal size (DN or NPS), full or reduced bore |
| End connection | Flanged or other end connection, face-to-face length |
| Seat system | soft-seated or metal-seated |
| Actuation | Hand lever, gear operator with handwheel or other type of actuation |
| Code | API, ASME or EN as agreed, required certificates |
These details are sufficient for an initial configuration and a quotation.
Manufacturing
KRONEN VALVE develops and manufactures its ball valves in-house. Bodies in cast and forged steel are machined, assembled and tested for pressure and tightness before delivery.
We provide test and conformity documents in line with the API, ASME and EN requirements agreed for the order. Material test certificates to EN 10204 3.1 and pressure and leak test reports are part of every order.
