Working condition

ProcessAxens Para Max process
SizeNPS1~12
Pressure RateCLASS 150~300
Fluid

C8A and p - diethylbenzene

Temperature200℃
Valve body raw materiallA105

Pain Points and Proposal

1.Jam: valve jam due to solid fluid accumulating inside valve pocket, serious cycle time request, accuracy less than 0.1 second.

2. Internal leakage: wrong coating of sealing surface.

3.External leakage: stem packing failuer without any compensation after frequenctly on/off operating.

1.Valve flow channel is machined to ensure the roughness does not exceed Ra3.2. The valve pocket is designed with a drain port, which allows for regular release of deposited materials.

2.Special coating for solid-liquid phase with good features on hardness and corrosion.

3.Real live-loaded packing design with real time wear compensation of packing.
