Power Industry Valve Demands

Power plants operate under extreme steam conditions, requiring valves that maintain integrity through thermal cycling, high-pressure differential, and continuous operation.

High-Temperature Steam

Supercritical steam at 650degC / 30MPa demands forged Cr-Mo-V alloy valves with Stellite hardfacing. Welded bonnet designs eliminate leak paths. Creep-fatigue life analysis per ASME Section III for nuclear safety class valves.

F91/F92P91/P22Stellite

Feedwater & Condensate

High-pressure feedwater control valves must handle cavitation and erosion. Multi-stage trim designs reduce noise below 85dBA. Chrome-plated stems and Stellited seats extend service life in flashing condensate service.

Cavitation TrimMulti-Stage

Rapid Shutdown Safety

Turbine trip and boiler emergency shutdown demand sub-second valve closure. Hydraulic/pneumatic actuators with spring-return and accumulator backup ensure fail-safe operation during power loss. SIL 3 certified ESD packages.
