Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve

Overview of Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve

The Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve is a type of ball valve, where the ball is mounted in position using trunnion bearings on both ends. This prevents the ball from shifting under line pressure, allowing the seats to effectively seal and reduce operating torque.

As one of the leading Trunnion Ball Valve Manufacturer India, we offer valves that meet international standards and can be used for liquid, gas, hydrocarbons, steam, and many more media in industrial processing applications. These valves find wide application in pipelines and isolation systems where high performance is needed.

Features of Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve

Our Trunnion Ball Valves have state-of-the-art designs with various additional features that ensure safer and reliable operations.

Double Block and Bleed

Many of our Trunnion Mounted Ball Valves are engineered with double block and bleed feature to seal the valve from both upstream and downstream directions and safely discharge the valve cavity during maintenance and inspection.

Lower Operation Torque

Due to trunnion supported ball, there is no friction between ball and seats of the valve. Therefore, our trunnion mounted ball valves have much lower operation torque than floating ball valves.

Capability to Withstand High Pressure

Being one of the top High Pressure Ball Valve Manufacturers, our products have the capability to withstand difficult pressure conditions while maintaining a good sealing capability and strength.

Fire-Safe Construction

Fire-safe construction is helpful in retaining the performance of the valve in situations where high temperatures are encountered. This is because of the use of secondary metal-to-metal seal mechanisms that prevent leaks.

Non-Blowout Stem

Internally locked stem mechanism prevents any possible blow out of the stem under pressure.

Long Service Life

Our high quality materials and construction ensures that there will be no wear of seals which increases its longevity in industrial environment.

Advantages of Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve

Suitable for High-Pressure Applications

These types of ball valves with trunnion support for the ball can handle load efficiently hence they are suitable for high pressure applications.

Guaranteed Shut-Off

Precise design of sealing elements ensures perfect tight shut-off of liquids and gases. It lowers the risks of losing the product and increases process safety.

Less Wear and Lower Maintenance Requirements

The design of supported ball decreases the wear of seals. It results in lower maintenance needs and higher components’ life span.

Ideal for Pipeline Systems

Heavy Duty Ball Valve solutions are widely used in large pipeline systems where high flow capacity, strong structure, and reliable seal are needed.

Higher Level of Operational Safety

Fire safety, advanced sealing technologies, anti-static protection, and blowout-proof stems increase safety of working processes in hazardous areas.

Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve Applications

Trunnion Ball Valves solutions designed according to API 6D standard are well-suited for various industrial applications.

Oil & Gas Industry

Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve is widely used in the upstream, midstream, and downstream sectors in Oil and Gas Industry, which include production, transmission, and distribution facilities.

Pipeline Systems

High-pressure transmission pipelines make use of trunnion mounted ball valves for the safe flow isolation, emergency shut off, and other maintenance tasks.

Refineries

The petroleum refinery uses ball valves for controlling the flow of crude oil, processed product, hydrocarbons, and other process fluids safely.

Storage Terminals

Storage terminals involved in storing fuels, chemicals, and liquefied gases need efficient shut-off valves that operate efficiently at different pressures.

Chemical Industry

The chemical industry makes use of these valves for handling corrosive chemicals, solvents, and aggressive process fluids efficiently.

Power Industry

Power plants make use of these valves for their steam systems, cooling, and various process applications where there is a need for high-pressure operation.

Petrochemical Industry

Petrochemical facilities need high performance ball valves for the processing of hydrocarbons, gases, and specialty chemicals.

Mining and Heavy Industries

Valve systems employed in mining processes and heavy industries need to be robust and strong enough to handle harsh media conditions including abrasive media, slurry systems, and high pressure liquid flow systems.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1. What is a Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve?

A Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve is a quarter-turn valve wherein the ball is held in place by means of an upper and lower trunnion. This type of ball valve reduces operating torque and has a good seal in high-pressure and large diameter applications.

Q2. What is the difference between a Floating and Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve?

In a floating ball valve, the ball moves slightly and is sealed against the downstream seat. In a trunnion mounted valve, the ball is held by trunnions which reduces seating force and operating torque and also works well in high-pressure applications.

Q3. What are the applications of trunnion ball valves?

Trunnion Ball Valves are found in oil and gas pipelines, refineries, petrochemical plants, power plants, chemical processing plants, storage terminals, and other heavy industrial plants that require efficient flow control under high pressure conditions.

Q4. Are trunnion ball valves capable of automation?

Yes. The trunnion mounted ball valves can be installed with pneumatic, electric or hydraulic actuators.
