For industries where flow control must be precise, safe, and fully compliant with international standards, the API 6D 2-Piece Trunnion Ball Valve is a trusted solution. Designed with durability and performance in mind, this valve is ideal for critical applications across the oil & gas, petrochemical, and power generation sectors. Its robust two-piece bolted construction, combined with a range of pressure classes and safety features, ensures long-term reliability in demanding environments.
Key Features
· Two-Piece Bolted Body Construction
The valve features a flanged-end, two-piece bolted design, offering ease of installation, maintenance, and internal inspection without compromising strength.
· Trunnion-Mounted Ball Design
Ideal for high-pressure environments, the trunnion ball design minimizes operating torque and provides stable sealing across a wide pressure range.
· Blowout-Proof Stem
An anti-blowout stem design enhances safety during maintenance and operation, preventing stem ejection under pressure.
· Fire-Safe Construction
Equipped with graphite fire-safe rings, the valve provides an additional layer of protection against external leakage in fire conditions.
· ISO 5211 Mounting Pad
A standard ISO 5211 mounting pad allows for easy automation with electric or pneumatic actuators, simplifying integration into automated systems.
Materials and Construction
· Body and Adapter Material: Carbon Steel WCB
Known for its strength and durability, WCB is a widely used material suitable for a range of process fluids and temperature conditions.
· Flange Connection: In compliance with ASME B16.5 standards, ensuring compatibility with global piping systems.
Pressure Class Options
To suit a variety of operational requirements, the valve is available in the following ANSI pressure classes:
· Class 150
· Class 300
· Class 600
These options give engineers and operators the flexibility to select the right valve for system pressures and conditions.
