TRUNNION BALL VALVE – Reliable Performance for Demanding Industries

2025-07-10 15:00:43

What is a Trunnion Ball Valve?

Trunnion Ball Valve is a specialized type of ball valve designed to handle high-pressure and high-flow applications. Unlike floating ball valves, the trunnion-mounted ball is supported by mechanical anchors (trunnions) to reduce operating torque and enhance sealing efficiency, making it ideal for critical services in oil & gas, petrochemical, and water treatment industries.

Key Features & Benefits

✔ High-Pressure Resistance – Engineered for systems requiring ANSI Class 600 to 2500 and higher.
✔ Reduced Operating Torque – Trunnion support minimizes friction, allowing smoother operation even under extreme pressures.
✔ Double Block & Bleed (DBB) Capability – Ensures zero leakage for safe isolation during maintenance.
✔ Fire-Safe Design – Compliant with API 607/API 6FA standards for emergency shut-off.
✔ Anti-Static & Blowout-Proof Stem – Prevents sparks and ensures stem integrity under high stress.
✔ Versatile Material Options – Available in carbon steel, stainless steel, alloy steel, and exotic materials for corrosive environments.

Applications

  • Oil & Gas Pipelines (Upstream, Midstream, Downstream)

  • Refineries & Petrochemical Plants

  • Power Generation & Water Treatment

  • Cryogenic & High-Temperature Services
