  • Q How Are Industrial Valves Tested?

    A
    Industrial valves are tested according to the applicable valve standards, customer specifications and service requirements. Common tests may include shell pressure testing, seat leakage testing, dimensional inspection and visual inspection.
     
    For valves used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications, additional inspections or tests may be required depending on the valve type, pressure class, material, operating conditions and project specifications.
     
    SDF carries out valve inspection and testing during the manufacturing process to help ensure that valves meet the applicable technical and quality requirements before shipment.
     
    If you have specific testing or inspection requirements, please provide them with your valve specifications when requesting a quotation from SDF.
     
  • Q What Valves Are Used in Power Plants? | SDF

    A
    Power plants use different types of valves depending on the system, medium, pressure and temperature. Common types include gate valves, globe valves, check valves, ball valves, butterfly valves and control valves.
     
    Gate valves are commonly used for isolation, while globe and control valves can be used for flow regulation. Check valves help prevent reverse flow, and ball or butterfly valves may be used for isolation in various auxiliary systems.
     
    For high-pressure and high-temperature power plant applications, valve selection should consider pressure rating, temperature, material, valve size, connection type, applicable standards and service conditions.
     
    SDF manufactures industrial valves for power generation and other demanding applications. Contact us with your project requirements for technical assistance and a quotation.
     
  • Q How to Choose a Gate Valve? | Gate Valve Selection Guide | SDF

    A Pressure → Temperature → Size → Medium → Material → Connection → Standard → Application 

    Choosing the right gate valve depends on the operating conditions and pipeline requirements. Key factors include valve size, pressure rating, operating temperature, fluid medium, valve material, connection type, applicable standards and operating method.

    For high-pressure or high-temperature applications, the valve design, pressure class, material and sealing configuration should be carefully selected according to the actual service conditions. For power plant, oil and gas and other industrial applications, project specifications and applicable standards should also be considered.

    SDF can provide gate valve solutions according to customer specifications, including different sizes, pressure classes, materials, connection types and applicable standards. Contact us with your valve requirements for technical assistance and a quotation.

  • Q What is API 600 for industrial valves?

    A
    API 600 is a standard covering bolted bonnet steel gate valves for petroleum and natural gas applications and other industrial services. It specifies requirements related to valve design, materials, dimensions, pressure-temperature ratings, testing and inspection.
     
    SDF manufactures industrial gate valves according to applicable international standards and customer specifications. When selecting an API 600 gate valve, factors such as valve size, pressure class, material, operating temperature, medium and connection type should be considered.
     
    If you need an API 600 gate valve for a power plant, oil and gas or industrial application, please contact SDF with your technical requirements for a suitable valve solution.
