Frequently Asked Questions

Common technical inquiries regarding our trunnion mounted ball valves.

What is the difference between two-piece and three-piece split body designs?
Two-piece designs feature a main body and one end connection, minimizing potential leak paths and offering a more compact footprint. Three-piece designs consist of a central body and two end pieces, which allows the central section to be easily removed for inline maintenance without disturbing the pipe connections. Both meet API 6D standards.
Are these valves suitable for cryogenic or ultra-high temperature applications?
The standard side-entry soft-seated trunnion series is rated for -46℃ to 121℃ (up to 200℃ depending on specific soft seat materials). For applications outside this range, FZV manufactures specialized metal-seated and cryogenic valve series designed specifically for extreme thermal conditions.
What does API 607 / API 6FA Fire Safe certification entail?
Fire safe certification means the valve has been physically tested by being exposed to flames at temperatures up to 1000°C for a sustained period while under pressure. It ensures that in the event of a plant fire, the valve will maintain its structural integrity and internal/external leakage will remain within strictly defined safety limits, preventing the feed of combustible fluids to the fire.
