Trunnion mounted ball valve is one such critical component, which contributes to success by providing incomparable performance in extremely demanding cryogenic conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What are Trunnion Mounted Ball Valves?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compared to conventional floating ball valves, trunnion mounted ball valves are made with a unique mechanical arrangement. In a trunnion mounted ball valve the key differentiator is the ball\u2019s support system.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The top and bottom of the valve are fixed trunnions or support pins.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additional bearings are positioned on the side to enhance stability.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This design facilitates better sealing and reduced operating torque.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Cryogenic Limitations in LNG Application<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For valve technologies LNG applications encounter distinct challenges:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Extremely Chilly Temperatures ( around -260 degree F or \u2013 162 degree F)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">High pressure work environment<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Critical parameters for zero leakage<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Requirement for consistent thermal cycling performance<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Fundamental Performance Advantages of Trunnion Mounted Ball Valves in LNG<\/b><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Robust and Superior Sealing Mechanism<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The trunnion design provides numerous sealing points like:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Primary Seat Seals<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Secondary Seat

technique not only guarantees superior leak prevention, but also meets the most stringent API 6D and ISO14313 standards for zero leakage classifications.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Mechanical Stability in Cryogenic Conditions<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike floating ball valves, trunnion mounted designs:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maintain constant pressure ratings even during extreme temperatures<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Limits ball and seal deformation<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Provides predictable mechanism reaction during thermal cycling<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\"><b>Lesser Operating Torque<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The working torque is significantly decreased by the trunnion support mechanism by:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Removing direct ball-to-seat friction<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Distributing mechanical stress among several support points<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Facilitating better actuator selection and lower energy consumption<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>\u00a0Important Considerations for Material Selection for LNG Service<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cryogenic valve performance depends upon the appropriate selection of materials:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Body Materials: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ideal materials include low temperature carbon steel or austenitic stainless steel<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Ball and Stem: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forged stainless steel with special cryogenic treatments<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Seat Rings: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight:

Features for Increased Dependability<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><b>Blow-out Proof Stem: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Guards against potentially dangerous stem ejection by maintaining system integration under extreme pressure conditions<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Anti-static Design<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Grounding connections are integrated into the anti-static design to prevent the
