On the Russian market there is a large selection of locking pipe fittings: gate valves various designs, valves, valves, butterfly valves, etc. However, in last years more and more consumers give their preference to ball valves.

LD ball valves have long term service (5-10 years). This undeniable reliability is ensured by the constant control of blanks for the manufacture of ball valves, as well as materials throughout the entire production process. Each LD steel ball valve is tested for seal tightness and body strength on special test benches. Valves are tested in accordance with GOST 9544-93, which sounds like “Pipeline shut-off valves. Valve tightness standards.

The places of installation and operation of LD ball valves can be pipeline systems of housing and communal services, water pipelines, pipelines for transporting oil, gas and oil products.

The LD steel ball valve has proven to be a reliable shut-off device with a high-quality seal of the stem-throat assembly, the seats in the ball valve are additionally spring-loaded, there are also duplicate seals on the seats, the material of which is coke-filled fluoroplastic made of fluorosiloxane elastomer.

By using LD steel ball valves, you can reduce the cost of maintenance pipeline systems. This is achieved through the use of all-welded technology in the manufacture of ball valves. The result is that such a ball valve is durable and reliable. In the manufacture of LD ball valves, the method of crimping workpieces by cold stamping is used. For the production of KSh, the material is pipe elements of various metallurgical plants. As a result of all of the above, there are no various leakages of the working medium, and this happens if bolted connections are used in the device of other ball valves, maintenance and the availability of spare parts and structural elements are not required, and various repair tools and training programs are not required.

Advantages of LD ball valves:

All-welded housing

The all-welded body of the LD ball valve does not have any bolted sockets on the body, through which leakage is possible under dynamic loads of the pipeline. The ball valve uses not cast elements, as in most types of valves, but cold-formed blanks made from the pipe assortment of the largest domestic metallurgical plants.

Strength

The body of the LD ball valve consists of a central welded spherical part (body) and cylindrical end connections (pipes). The spherical forged design, which does not have bolted connectors, allows for minimum thickness walls and minimum weight withstand maximum operating pressure and provide maximum load resistance.

Tests

Each LD ball valve passes the following acceptance tests

1. air tightness Рpr 6 kgf/cm² at t?+ 20?C
2. Strength and density of water:

* for Ru 1.6 MPa - Rpr 24 kgf / cm²
* for Ru 2.5 MPa - Rpr 38 kgf / cm²
* for Ru 4.0 MPa - Rpr 60 kgf / cm²

No need for maintenance

Since the LD ball valve has a long service life, a robust all-welded construction and no gland seals, it requires no maintenance or spare parts. Thus, there is no need for training programs, special tools and equipment for repairs, storage of spare parts.

High speed shutdown of the flow of the working medium

The LD ball valve is opened or closed by turning the handle through 90°, and more than ten full turns of the handwheel are required to open or close the valve.

Small (in comparison with gate valves) weight parameters of LD ball valves provide a minimum load on the pipeline.

Ease of controls

At high pressures and when the stuffing box is tightly tightened, opening and closing the valves is very difficult due to the small diameter of the flywheel, which leads to the use of additional improvised means. It takes several full turns of the flywheel to open or close. The ball valve is easily opened or closed by turning the stem 90°. At the same time, it is possible to visually determine whether the valve is open or closed.

Temperature resistance of ball valve

The temperature resistance of the ball valve is up to 180°C. A valve (valve) with a rubber seal allows only 70 °C, and a cone valve - no more than 80 °C.

Optimal price-quality ratio”

The price of the valve is slightly lower than the price of the LD ball valve, but the cost of installation and maintenance of the valve is much higher than that of the ball valve, which, combined with the high cost of repairing the valve, allows us to conclude that economic efficiency ball valve LD.

Design features of LD cranes

LD company produces industrial use certified according to the standard GOST No. 54808 “Pipeline shut-off valves“. All products are made in an all-welded housing that does not have bolted connectors, which reduces the risk of leaks under increased dynamic load in the pipeline to zero.

A feature of LD cranes is that for the manufacture of their body, not cast blanks are used, as in most competitors, but elements produced by cold stamping. This design provides increased strength of the body due to the absence of limiting stresses in the metal. Workpieces are joined in shielding gases (Ar+CO2) by means of automatic welding. The use of a gaseous medium provides a minimum waste of the alloying components of the steel, which gives an increased quality of the weld.

LD ball valves have the following layout:

The body is made of carbon steel grade 09G2S.
Connecting pipe for welding fittings to the pipeline
The neck fixing the rod on the body.
The stem that connects the hand lever to the locking element.
Restrictive washer that prevents stem shifts.
Locking ball with through perforation.
Seat seal made of M4K20 rubber;
Support ring.
Disc spring.
Stem Throat Seals - Ensures body seal against the environment.
The sealing ring performs a similar function.
Flanged connection plate.
The handle may have a "butterfly" configuration.
Round sealing ring.
Restriction nut - fixes the actuator handle on the stem.

All LD ball valves are certified according to tightness class “A” - they have zero level leakage, which is achieved through the use of a system of redundant seals. Secondary seals are represented by rings round section located on the PTFE seat of the locking ball.

Fittings with a diameter of 50-500 mm have additional disc springs on the saddle, which ensure the same tightness of the valve when the working medium circulates in both directions, regardless of its temperature.

LD valves have a unified type marking KSh.Ts.F.015.0.040.X/L.03, wherein:

KSh - ball valve;
