RAYS' rising stem ball valve is designed to operate without friction between the ball and the seat during opening and to achieve zero leakage when closed. This makes it well-suited for demanding conditions. The valve is made entirely of metal and is fire-resistant, capable of functioning in extreme temperatures ranging from -196°C (320.8°F) to 538°C (1000.4°F). It can handle media with particulates like sand and short fibers, and meets NACE standards for corrosion resistance, ensuring it can resist sulfide stress cracking in harsh environments. The valve also features a self-cleaning mechanism. When the ball is tilted away from the seat, the fluid flows 360° around the ball's sealing surface, effectively removing any debris. This prevents damage from high-speed fluid flows and keeps the sealing area clean. The rising stem ball valve is ideal for various applications including exhaust, fluid transfer, pipeline isolation, bypass, product segmentation, and emergency shutdowns, particularly where high switching frequencies and zero leakage in high temperatures are required.
Designed specifically for deep cold medium working conditions such as LNG, liquid nitrogen, and liquid oxygen, it adopts special stainless steel or low-temperature alloy valve bodies. Through deep cold treatment, it ensures reliable sealing even in an extreme environment of -196℃. The innovative lateral maintenance port structure allows for quick replacement of the sealing components without disassembling the valve, significantly improving maintenance efficiency. The optimized double eccentric butterfly plate, combined with multi-level metal hard seals, achieves zero leakage and long service life under ultra-low temperature conditions. At the same time, it is equipped with a longened valve stem heat insulation structure, effectively blocking the conduction of cold energy.
When the disc of the lift check valve slides along the vertical center line of the valve body and the medium flows forward, the disc is lifted by the fluid thrust and the medium passes smoothly; When the medium stops flowing or reverse flowing, the valve disc quickly closes under the action of its own gravity and the reverse thrust of the fluid to prevent the medium from flowing back. This valve is usually equipped with a guide sleeve to ensure that the disc remains smooth during lifting and accurately falls back onto the seat.
