Pressure Class Comparison

Pressure Class	Design Pressure (bar)	Design Pressure (psi)	Typical Service
Class 800	138	2,000	General hydrocarbon, steam, water, instrument lines
Class 900	153	2,220	High-pressure steam, gas and oil transmission
Class 1500	260	3,750	High-pressure steam, gas injection, wellhead equipment
Class 2500	430	6,250	High-pressure steam generators, natural gas compressor lines

Reference: ASME B16.34. Class 800 is a forged valve-specific rating (approximately between Class 600 and 900). Class 150, 300, 600 available on request for low to medium pressure service.

Forged Steel Globe Valve Applications

• Oil and Gas Industry: Wellhead equipment, Christmas trees, manifold and flowline throttling and isolation.

• Power Generation: High-pressure steam throttling, boiler drains, turbine bypass lines.

• Petrochemical: Hydrocarbon processing, catalytic cracking, reformer units.

• Chemical Processing: Corrosive fluid throttling, reagent feed lines, sampling systems.

• Water Treatment: High-pressure pump isolation, desalination, boiler feed water.

• Instrumentation: Instrument root valves, steam trap isolation, sensing line isolation.

FAQ - Forged Steel Globe Valve

Q1: What is the difference between a globe valve and a gate valve?

A: A globe valve uses a plug or needle disc that moves perpendicular to the seat, providing excellent throttling and flow regulation. A gate valve uses a wedge that moves parallel to the seat, providing only on/off isolation. Globe valves are preferred for throttling and frequent operation, while gate valves are preferred for full-bore isolation.

Q2: What is the difference between plug disc and needle disc?

A: Plug disc is the standard design for general throttling service, offering good flow control and sealing. Needle disc has a longer, tapered plug for precise flow regulation in small-bore instrumentation and sampling lines. Both are available for forged steel globe valves.

Q3: Which end connections are available for forged steel globe valves?

A: We offer Socket-Weld (SW) per ANSI B16.11, Screwed/Threaded (NPT) per ANSI B1.20.1, Butt-Welding (BW) per ANSI B16.25, and Flanged ends per ANSI B16.5 (RF or RTJ). The choice depends on piping specification, pressure class and installation requirements.

Q4: What is the difference between bolted bonnet, welded bonnet and pressure seal bonnet?

A: Bolted bonnet (B.B) allows easy access for maintenance and trim replacement. Welded bonnet (W.B) provides a more compact design and is preferred for high-pressure applications. Pressure seal bonnet (PSB) uses internal pressure to self-energize the seal, providing superior leak-tightness for Class 900 to 2500 service.

Q5: What materials are available for forged steel globe valves?

A: Standard materials include carbon steel (A105, A105N, LF2), alloy steel (F5, F11, F22), stainless steel (F304, F304L, F316, F316L) and duplex stainless steel (F51, F53). Material selection depends on operating temperature, pressure and fluid corrosiveness.

Q6: Where can I find detailed dimensions for each pressure class and end connection?

A: Detailed dimensions for each pressure class and end connection are available on our sub-pages. See the Dimension Details section below for Class 800 SW/NPT, 900-1500 SW/NPT, 900-2500 PSB, 900-2500 RJ Bonnet and 150-2500 Flanged/BW pages. Contact us for confirmed drawings.
