Description
The Molten Salt Globe Valve (Straight-Through Type) is specifically designed for high-temperature molten salt systems with a pressure range of PN16–250 (150Lb–1500Lb) and an operating temperature of 29–700°C. This valve is ideal for applications in concentrated solar power (CSP) plants, thermal energy storage systems, and chemical processes, ensuring safe and reliable flow control under extreme conditions.
Key Features
- Compact Design: The straight-through flow path minimizes pressure drop, reduces flow resistance, and ensures smooth operation without liquid stagnation.
- Advanced Materials:
- For temperatures below 400°C, materials like WCB and A105 (compatible with SA106B Pipeline) are used.
- For temperatures above 400°C, high-temperature-resistant materials such as CF8C and F347 are selected.
- Enhanced Durability: The valve stem and internal components are hardened to withstand wear and corrosion, ensuring long service life.
- Optimal Sealing: The sealing system features high-temperature-resistant metallic materials for compatibility with molten salt, preventing leaks and ensuring reliability.
- High Compatibility: The design is tailored to handle varying hardness levels between the valve seat and moving components for excellent performance under demanding conditions.
Applications
- Concentrated Solar Power (CSP): Ideal for molten salt heat transfer systems in solar power plants.
- Thermal Energy Storage: Ensures smooth and reliable flow in high-temperature storage tanks.
- Chemical Processes: Suitable for pipelines transporting aggressive, high-temperature fluids.
