Cast Steel Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve
1. Product overview
Metals Valve provides cast steel trunnion mounted ball valves in a wide variety of cast materials covering carbon steel, alloy steel, and stainless steel. The ball of a trunnion mounted ball valve is fixed or constrained at two pivot points(upper stem and bottom stem). Buy using a bearing at the bottom stem(trunnion), only pivoting movement is allowed within the body cavity. The upstream seat is a floating seat and the process pressure pushes it against the ball’s sealing surface. The seat can also be pre-stressed during assembly, using seats that have a spring action. This design applies continuous pressure against a trunnion-mounted ball after the ball is installed, while the top-works apply a load to the entire closure member. Cast steel trunnion mounted ball valves are often soft seated and can attain a bubble tight sealing.

Design Features
(1) The stem sealant injection fitting is furnished to prevent leakage from the stem in case of emergency.
(2) T-shaped blow-out proof stem design.
(3) The seat sealant injection fitting is furnished to prevent leakage from the seat.
(4) Bleeding/ venting plug to drain the body cavity to avoid over pressure.
(5) Double sealing O-rings to prevent leakage from stem area.
(6) Gasket & O-ring arrangement to prevent leakage from body joint.
(7) Seat spring to exert force on the seat to ensure a tight sealing even at low line pressure.
(8) Fire safe design: in case soft seating materials are deteriorated after fire, metal to metal sealing is available.
