Industrial Gate Valve Dimension Details
Typical Applications of Class 1500LB & 2500LB Cast Steel Gate Valve
• Ultra-high-pressure steam systems: power plant main steam, reheat, and turbine bypass lines at 1500–2500 class.
• Refinery high-pressure processes: hydrocracking, hydrotreating, and catalytic reforming at extreme pressure.
• Oil & gas wellhead and subsea: high-pressure wellhead, manifold, and subsea pipelines.
• Chemical plants: high-pressure synthesis, ammonia, and urea plants with CF8M / alloy options.
• Power generation: boiler feedwater, turbine bypass, and high-energy piping systems.
• Critical service with pressure seal bonnet: enhanced sealing integrity for extreme pressure and temperature applications.
FAQ - High Pressure Cast Steel Gate Valve Class 1500LB & 2500LB
Q1: What is a Class 1500LB / 2500LB cast steel gate valve?
A: A Class 1500LB / 2500LB cast steel gate valve is a linear motion valve designed for extreme pressure and high temperature on-off service. It uses a wedge-shaped disc that slides up and down to open or close the flow path. It is manufactured to API 600 / API 6D / ANSI B16.34 and is rated for ANSI Class 1500 (approximately PN250) and Class 2500 (approximately PN420) pressure.
Q2: What is the difference between 1500LB and 2500LB gate valves?
A: Class 2500LB gate valves have thicker wall sections, heavier flanges, and higher pressure/temperature ratings than Class 1500LB. Class 1500LB is available in sizes 2″ to 24″, while Class 2500LB is typically available in 2″ to 12″. Both use pressure seal bonnet construction for extreme pressure service.
Q3: What is a pressure seal bonnet (PSB)?
A: Pressure seal bonnet uses internal line pressure to tighten the seal between the bonnet and body. As pressure increases, the sealing force increases, making it more reliable than bolted bonnet at very high pressure and temperature. PSB is the standard choice for Class 1500LB and above in critical service.
Q4: What materials are available?
A: Common body materials include WCB, LCB, CF8, CF8M, CF3, CF3M, WC6, WC9, C5, C12, 4A, and 5A. Trim materials include 13Cr, full Stellite, SS304, SS316, and F6a. NACE MR 0175 / ISO 15156 is available for sour service.
Q5: What actuation options and special designs are available?
A: Actuation options include manual handwheel, bevel gear, electric actuator, and bare stem. Special designs include NACE MR 0175 / ISO 15156 compliance and bypass valve design. Other options are available on request.
Q6: What is the difference between RF and RTJ flange facing?
A: RF (Raised Face) is a standard flange facing suitable for general service. RTJ (Ring Type Joint) uses a metal ring gasket in a grooved flange facing, providing superior sealing integrity for ultra-high-pressure and high-temperature service. RTJ is recommended for Class 1500LB and above.
