Trunnion mounted split body ball valves, double block and bleed function, for oil and gas standard and severe applications.

FCT is a world leader in the design and manufacture of ball valves for oil and gas markets, including production, upstream processing, transportation and distribution, as well as refining and petrochemical. Offering an extensive range of ball valves including well known brａnd names such as IVC Valves, SDT Valves and Mapegaz, which have served the oil, gas and energy industries for more than 30 years. FCT focuses on the supply of innovative, high quality and competitive valve solutions marketed worldwide to oil, gas and energy industries.

Features & Benefits:

Ball valves, trunnion mounted, split body, type HPA (pin trunnion), HRA (plate trunnion) and DB (pin trunnion).
Design, manufacturing and materials comply with the Essential Safety Requirements of the 97/23/EC Directive (PED).
All valves designed to API 6D and ASME VIII.
Body wall thickness complies with ASME B16.34 (forged and/or cast).
Full and reduced bore valves available.
Bi-directional valves, double block and bleed, allowing the venting and the draining of the body cavity, in both open and closed position.
Two seat designs available:
- single piston effect (standard) providing self relieving of the body cavity overpressure
- double piston effect providing double barrier (safety valve requested for cavity pressure relieving on liquid applications)
Soft seat (PFA, PCTFE, PEEK, Polyamide) and metal seat (TCC) available.
Blow out proof shouldered stem (retained by the valve body).
Antistatic device to BS 5351 (10 Ω under 12 Volt) between body and seats and ball and stem.
Guided stem (bearings) to minimize the operating torques.
Fire tested to API 6FA and BS 6755 Part II.
Emergency sealant injection provision (all seats and stem) – standard for size 14" and above, lower sizes on request.
Testing to API 6D: hydrostatic body shell test, hydrostatic seats test, DBB test, pneumatic seat test and torque measurement.
Marking to API 6D and PED.
Available with electric, pneumatic and hydraulic actuators.
