SOLON - With working pressures up to 6000 psig (413 bar) at 250°F (121°C) and flow coefficients from 4.0 to 13.8, new Swagelok® 3-piece, instrumentation, high-pressure, high-flow ball valves meet the demands of hydrogen and compressed natural gas, as well as oil and gas, chemical, and petrochemical applications. Certifications include ANSI / NGV 3.1 service valve certification to 3600 psig (248 bar) and ANSI / NGV 4.6 Class A certification to 4500 psig (310 bar).The unique ultra low-temperature fluorocarbon O-ring material seals across the full temperature range of the valve (-40 to 250°F [-40 to 121°C]). Swagelok’s robust, spring-loaded, patent-pending seat design does not require adjustment after the valve is installed.All wetted components of the valve are compatible with hydrogen and compressed natural gas (CNG). Fractional and metric Swagelok tube fitting end connections provide gaugeable make-up and consistent, leak-tight connections. ISO and NPT end connections are also available. Choose from a heavy-duty quarter-turn directional handle, a Swagelok rack and pinion pneumatic actuator, or an ISO 5211-compliant rack and pinion pneumatic actuator.Headquartered in Solon, Ohio, U.S.A., Swagelok Company is a major developer and manufacturer of fluid system component technologies for the research, instrumentation, pharmaceutical, oil and gas, power, petrochemical, alternative fuels, and semiconductor industries.
