Fluorine-Lined Globe Valve

The Fluorine-Lined Globe Valve is designed to provide reliable flow control and shutoff in highly corrosive environments. The internal surfaces of the valve, including the body and bonnet, are lined with fluorine-based materials like PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) or FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene), which ensure excellent chemical resistance. These valves are widely used in industries such as chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, and wastewater treatment, where handling aggressive and corrosive fluids is crucial.

Product Features:

1. Fluorine Lining:
   • The valve’s internal components, including the body and bonnet, are fully lined with PTFE or FEP, offering superior resistance to corrosive chemicals, such as strong acids, alkalis, and organic solvents.
   • The lining material ensures no contamination of the process fluids, making it suitable for high-purity applications.
2. Chemical Resistance:
   • Designed to withstand a broad range of corrosive media, the fluorine lining provides excellent protection against chemical attack, ensuring the valve’s longevity even in harsh conditions.
   • Suitable for handling highly aggressive chemicals like hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide, and chlorine.
3. Globe Valve Design:
   • The globe valve configuration ensures precise flow control and tight shutoff. Its design allows for minimal leakage and enables throttling applications.
   • The valve’s rising stem design provides clear indication of valve position, enhancing operational reliability.
4. Non-Stick Properties:
   • The PTFE or FEP lining provides non-stick properties, preventing scaling and buildup of media on the valve internals. This feature helps extend the valve’s service life and reduces maintenance needs.
5. Temperature and Pressure Range:
   • These valves are typically suitable for temperatures ranging from -29°C to 180°C and pressure ratings up to PN16, depending on the lining material and valve construction.
   • Ideal for applications that involve moderate pressures and temperatures in aggressive environments.
6. Maintenance and Durability:
   • The low-friction properties of the fluorine lining minimize wear and tear on internal components, reducing the frequency of maintenance and extending the valve’s operating life.
   • The valve’s design facilitates easy maintenance, allowing quick access to internal components for inspection and cleaning.
7. Manual and Actuated Options:
   • Available with manual operation or automated options such as electric or pneumatic actuators to suit different operational needs. Actuated versions can be integrated into automated control systems for remote operation.

Applications:

1. Chemical Processing:
   • Ideal for use in chemical plants, where the valve needs to handle corrosive chemicals during production, processing, or waste treatment.
   • Commonly used for processes involving strong acids, alkalis, and solvents.
2. Pharmaceutical Industry:
   • Suitable for applications where chemical purity is essential, ensuring no contamination of sensitive materials during production.
3. Water and Wastewater Treatment:
   • Used in systems that handle aggressive fluids or corrosive waste during the water purification and wastewater treatment processes.
4. Petrochemical Industry:
   • Used in processes involving corrosive gases and liquids in petrochemical plants, ensuring reliable flow control and protection against chemical damage.
5. Pulp and Paper:
   • Effective in handling chemical slurries and corrosive fluids used in the production of pulp and paper.

Advantages:

• Corrosion Resistance: The fluorine lining ensures excellent resistance to a wide variety of aggressive chemicals, guaranteeing the valve’s performance in demanding applications.
• Durability: The lining material is resistant to both chemical and mechanical wear, extending the valve’s operational life.
• Precise Flow Control: The globe valve design allows for accurate regulation of fluid flow, making it suitable for both throttling and on/off applications.
• Easy Maintenance: The non-stick properties of the lining prevent buildup of corrosive media, reducing downtime for cleaning and maintenance.
• Wide Application Range: The valve can handle a broad spectrum of corrosive media, making it versatile for multiple industries.

Conclusion:

The Fluorine-Lined Globe Valve is an essential solution for industries dealing with highly corrosive fluids. Its superior chemical resistance, combined with reliable flow control and tight shutoff capabilities, makes it an excellent choice for critical industrial processes. With minimal maintenance needs and a long service life, this valve offers excellent performance and durability in challenging environments.
