316 Stainless Steel Pressure Vent Valve Body

Valve accessories in the casting area refer to the various components and parts associated with valves that are manufactured through casting processes. These accessories play crucial roles in the functioning, control, and maintenance of valves in different industries and applications.

Valve accessories in the casting area offer a wide range of benefits, including high dimensional accuracy, intricate detailing, and compatibility with different materials and operating conditions. These cast components contribute to the optimal performance, reliability, and longevity of valves in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, water treatment, and manufacturing processes.

Our Case 3 & Solutions

In 2018, our company produced thepressure vent valve body (valve accessories) for customers (as shown below).

The material is 316 stainless steel. Because the opening is too small, the inner cavity is small and complicated, and it is almost impossible to clean the internal sand core, so we opened a square hole on the back of the product, welded it with a stainless steel square plate, and opened a dovetail groove at the weld, which is conducive to a strong weld.

We also used asand core that has both high-temperature strength and is easy to remove sand after high-temperature action to make this product. After the casting was processed, the air-tightness test was carried out, and it reached the qualified standard, so the product was mass-produced , and finally met the customer's requirements and won the trust of the customer.

Application

Valve accessories in the casting area have diverse applications across industries where valves are used for controlling the flow of fluids. These accessories play crucial roles in ensuring the efficient and reliable operation of valves.

Here is a brief summary of the applications of valve accessories in the casting area:

Oil and Gas Industry:

Valve accessories, such as valve bodies, discs, stems, and seats, manufactured through casting processes, find extensive use in the oil and gas industry. They are employed in pipelines, refineries, offshore platforms, and petrochemical plants, where they help regulate the flow of oil, gas, and other hydrocarbons.

Chemical Processing:  

Valves and their accessories are essential components in chemical processing plants. Cast valve bodies, discs, stems, and seals are used to control the flow of various chemicals, acids, and corrosive substances in processes such as mixing, blending, and reaction vessels.

Water and Wastewater Treatment:

Valve accessories play a vital role in water and wastewater treatment facilities. Cast valve bodies, discs, stems, and seats are utilized in pumps, pipelines, and treatment systems to regulate the flow and control the treatment processes, including filtration, disinfection, and sludge handling.

Power Generation: Valve accessories are extensively employed in power plants, including thermal power plants and nuclear power plants. Cast valve bodies, discs, stems, and bonnets are used in valves that control the flow of steam, water, and other fluids in turbines, boilers, and heat exchangers.

HVAC Systems:

Valve accessories find applications in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Cast valve bodies, discs, stems, and actuators are used in valves that regulate the flow of refrigerants, water, and air in HVAC systems, ensuring proper temperature control and energy efficiency.

Manufacturing Processes:

Valve accessories are used in various manufacturing processes, such as those found in the food and beverage industry, pharmaceutical production, and pulp and paper mills. Cast valve bodies, discs, stems, and seals are employed in valves that control the flow of ingredients, fluids, and chemicals, ensuring precise and controlled processes.

Water Distribution and Irrigation:

Valve accessories are utilized in water distribution systems and irrigation networks. Cast valve bodies, discs, stems, and flanges are employed in valves that control the flow of water for municipal water supply, irrigation systems, and agricultural applications.

Valve accessories in the casting area provide crucial functionality, durability, and reliability in controlling the flow of fluids in various industries. Their applications span across sectors such as oil and gas, chemical processing, water treatment, power generation, HVAC systems, manufacturing processes, and water distribution networks.
