🛡️ Manufacturing and Inspection
Strict manufacturing technology and special equipment are used for low-temperature valves, with precise quality control for parts. After special low-temperature treatment, rough machined parts are placed in the cooling medium for 2-6 hours to release stress. This ensures material performance and finishing size, preventing deformation and leakage due to extreme temperature changes. Parts undergo strict cleaning to remove oil before assembly to ensure high performance.
🚀 Industrial Applications
Applications: Gas liquefaction equipment, air separation equipment, LNG storage and transportation, liquid oxygen/nitrogen/hydrogen storage tanks, and PSA oxygen/nitrogen production equipment.
Used across energy, petrochemical, metallurgy, aerospace, nuclear industry, railway, chemical fertilizer, electric power, environmental protection, and pharmaceutical industries for cryogenic occasions.

❓ FAQ
1. What is the minimum temperature these cryogenic valves can withstand?
Our cryogenic valves are designed to operate at extremely low temperatures, reaching as low as -253ºC, suitable for liquid hydrogen and helium applications.
2. What materials are typically used for cryogenic valve construction?
We use high-grade materials such as A182, A350, A351, CF8, CF8M, F304, and F316L, which maintain their structural integrity at sub-zero temperatures.
3. How do you prevent leakage caused by thermal deformation?
Parts undergo a special low-temperature treatment where they are submerged in a cooling medium for 2 to 6 hours. This process releases internal stress and ensures dimensional stability.
4. Which industries commonly utilize these cryogenic valves?
They are widely used in LNG transportation, air separation units, aerospace, petrochemical plants, and medical oxygen production facilities.
5. What information is required for a custom valve quotation?
Please provide the nominal diameter (DN), pressure rating (MPa), working temperature (ºC), connection type, and the specific medium being handled.
6. Are the valves cleaned for oxygen service?
Yes, all cryogenic valve parts undergo strict cleaning processes to remove any traces of oil or grease, which is essential for safe operation in liquid oxygen service.
