Typical Applications of Cast Steel Globe Valve
• Oil & gas transmission: crude oil, natural gas, and refined product pipelines requiring flow regulation and reliable shut-off.
• Refinery and petrochemical: process lines where precise throttling and frequent operation are required.
• Power generation: main steam, feedwater, and auxiliary systems at all pressure classes from 150LBS to 1500LBS.
• Chemical processing: corrosive media handling with CF8 / CF8M / alloy steel options.
• Water treatment: pump discharge, bypass, and flow control in water and wastewater systems.
• General industrial pipelines: non-corrosive and mildly corrosive media where flow regulation is needed.
FAQ - Cast Steel Globe Valve
Q1: What is a cast steel globe valve?
A: A cast steel globe valve is a linear motion valve designed for throttling and flow regulation in pipelines. It uses a movable plug or disc that moves along the flow axis to control flow rate. The name "globe" comes from the spherical body shape. It is manufactured to BS 1873 / ANSI B16.34 and is available in pressure classes from ANSI 150Lbs to 1500Lbs.
Q2: What is the difference between a globe valve and a gate valve?
A: A globe valve uses a plug that moves along the flow axis, providing better throttling and flow regulation — ideal for modulating service. A gate valve uses a wedge that moves perpendicular to the flow, providing full bore flow with minimal pressure drop — ideal for on-off isolation only. Globe valves should be used for throttling, while gate valves should only be used fully open or fully closed.
Q3: What is the difference between bolted bonnet and pressure seal bonnet?
A: Bolted bonnet is suitable for general service up to Class 900 and is easy to maintain. Pressure seal bonnet (PSB) uses internal line pressure to tighten the seal, making it more suitable for very high pressure and high temperature applications (Class 900 and above). Both options are available depending on the pressure class and service conditions.
Q4: What are the common trim materials for cast steel globe valves?
A: Common trim materials follow API 600 numbering: Trim 1 (13Cr / 410 SS) for standard non-corrosive service; Trim 5 (Stellite hard-faced) for high-temperature steam and erosion; Trim 8 (13Cr + Stellite) for general sour service; Trim 10 (316SS with Stellite seat) for corrosion and erosion combination; and Trim 12 (13Cr + Stellite, NACE MR0175 compliant) for sour gas service containing H₂S.
Q5: What is BS 1873 standard?
A: BS 1873 is a British Standard for "Specification for steel globe and globe stop and check valves (flanged and butt-welding ends) for the petroleum, petrochemical, and allied industries." It specifies requirements for cast or forged carbon and alloy steel outside screw and yoke globe valves, straight pattern, angle pattern, and Y pattern, in sizes DN15 to DN400 (½″ to 16″) and Classes 150 to 2500.
Q6: What end connections and actuation options are available?
A: End connections include flanged (RF, RTJ) and butt weld (BW). Actuation options include manual handwheel, bevel gear, and bare stem for electric actuator. Other options are available on request.
