KITZ Unveils Hightemp Carbonsealed Valves for Harsh Industrial Use

In the demanding world of industrial operations—from steel furnaces to chemical reactors and any setting requiring extreme temperature control—a reliable, high-performance valve is essential. The KITZ High-Temperature Carbon-Sealed Ball Valve is engineered to meet these challenges head-on. More than just a valve, it is a critical safeguard for safe and efficient operations under high-temperature conditions.

KITZ's carbon-sealed ball valve features a unique design with specialized carbon materials as the sealing component, enabling exceptional heat resistance. With a maximum operating temperature of 500°C (450°C in oxidative fluid environments), this valve maintains superior sealing performance even under extreme heat. Additionally, the self-lubricating properties of carbon materials reduce friction, extending service life and minimizing maintenance costs.

• Bidirectional Flow, Versatile Application: The valve's bidirectional flow design eliminates concerns about media direction, simplifying installation and adapting seamlessly to complex piping systems.
• Full-Bore Design, Minimized Pressure Loss: The full-bore (Full Bore) construction ensures minimal pressure drop as fluids pass through, reducing energy consumption and enhancing system efficiency.
• Side-Entry Structure, Easy Maintenance: The side-entry (Side Entry) design allows for straightforward disassembly, inspection, and servicing, significantly reducing downtime and operational costs.
• Intrinsically Safe Fire Protection: Even in fire emergencies, the carbon sealing components remain intact, preventing media leakage and providing inherently safe fire resistance.
• Zero Leakage, High Reliability: Rigorously tested for zero leakage under hydrostatic pressure, the valve ensures operational safety. It also meets ANSI/FCI 70-2 Class VI leakage standards in pneumatic tests (using air or nitrogen), excelling in high-pressure gas applications.

• Valve Body Structure: Two-piece flanged connection
• Wall Thickness: Complies with ASME B16.34 Class 150 standards
• Face-to-Face Dimensions: Complies with ASME B16.10 Class 150 standards
• Piping Connections: Optional JIS B2220 10K/20K or ASME B16.5 Class 150/300 standards
