API 6D
Cryogenic extended-stem ball valve
Specify a KEHUA cryogenic extended-stem ball valve: review minimum temperature, seat materials, installation, cavity relief and the required low-temperature tests.
Ball Valves
Cryogenic extended-stem ball valve
KEHUA lists this extended-stem ball valve series for low-temperature isolation. The extension, ball support, seat materials and installation arrangement must be reviewed together against the actual fluid and operating conditions.
About the cryogenic extended-stem ball valve manufacturerThese are family-level options. Confirm the offered series rating and materials against its approved datasheet.
CRYOGENIC BALL VALVE PROCUREMENT
What must a cryogenic ball valve enquiry specify?
Specify the fluid and phase, minimum design and operating temperatures, pressure and thermal cycles for a cryogenic ball valve enquiry. Confirm the extension, installation orientation and insulation boundary on the drawing, then agree materials and cold-test acceptance for that configuration. An extended stem or family-level temperature range is not a model-specific cold-service qualification.
Related procurement checks: Prepare material questions for the offered configuration.
- State the fluid and phase, minimum design and operating temperatures, pressure class, maximum differential pressure and expected thermal cycles.
- Request the body, ball, seat and stem-seal materials, and confirm their suitability at the specified temperature rather than using the family range as a model rating.
- Confirm extension length, installation orientation, insulation or cold-box boundary, operating clearance, bore and end-connection details on the drawing.
- Agree how trapped cavity pressure is addressed, the permitted sealing direction, cold operating torque, test temperature, test medium and leakage acceptance. Request the applicable low-temperature test records.
