Some valve operating conditions involve highly abrasive fluids. In such operating environments, chromium carbide or tungsten carbide coatings on the internal surfaces of the valve may be insufficient. In these environments, valves with ceramic coatings on all internal surfaces may be more suitable. These products, which are more expensive than other valves, are evaluated by us after obtaining data such as flow rate and pressure class, and performing calculations to determine whether there is turbulence in the fluid, to assess the suitability of ceramic material usage.
The ceramic alloy used in ceramic valves can also vary depending on the fluid and pressure values. While the special manufacturing of these valves is much more difficult than other valves, we can also work on this depending on the number of valves.
Ceramic Ball Valves are especially preferred in metallurgy plants, mining, petrochemical, and chemical industries. These products, which we offer as Ceramic Ball Valves, Ceramic Butterfly Valves, and Ceramic Gate Valves, are particularly preferred in processes with abrasive fluids.
Ceramic Ball Valves, which can include actuators, solenoids, air filter regulators, and other equipment, can be especially beneficial if the valve’s lifespan is short in your current process. In such cases, you can consult HG-Stahl.
Another significant advantage of HG-Stahl ceramic valve technology is its ability to offer a smooth surface even in highly abrasive environments. This optimizes fluid flow in ceramic valves, minimizing the risk of turbulence and ensuring that the fluid moves steadily. HG-Stahl can adjust the ceramic coating’s thickness and composition according to the specific requirements of the process. In this way, valve life is extended, and energy efficiency is also improved. Using advanced engineering calculations in ceramic valve selection, the most appropriate solution against wear is determined, ensuring the continuity of the process.
Additionally, HG-Stahl ceramic valves also have the ability to control the fluid flow. Based on fluid pressure and flow rate information, we can assist you in maintaining the desired flow control within the system by manufacturing spheres in different shapes and adjusting the V Port angles. V port spheres are also very important for valve lifespan. Sharing all information with the engineering team during the proposal phase is crucial for works where Cv and Kv values are important.
