Where the metal valves are susceptible to severe corrosion, PFA lined ball valves are applied to resist the harsh corrosive environments. PFA lined ball valves are cheaper than most of high alloy valves.
Size range
NPS 1/2“ / DN15 through NPS 6“ / DN150
Other sizes available up to NPS 12“ / DN300
Valve pressure classes
EN PN16 and
ASME Class 150
Temperature range
ASME: -20°F (-29°C) to
400°F (204°C)
All wetted components
are fully lined with permeation resistant PFA Teflon® material as a barrier to corrosion.
Compact design
allows installation in space restricted areas in parallel piping systems.
Anti blow-out integral ball and stem
retains positive control and eliminates the danger of stem/ball failures due to liner damage at wear points.
Metal to metal contact
at the body joint ensures that no parts of the lining can be crushed or deformed because of forces within the piping system.
Locked in fluoroplastic liner
resists shrinkage, collapse and permits vacuum applications.
Chemically modified PTFE (CMP) seats
Provide greater pressure stability at higher temperatures than conventional PTFE.
Stainless steel lever
latching device minimizes possibility of accidental operation. Locking capability as standard. Made of stainless steel material ideal for corrosive environments.
When valves are closed under pressure, the ball is able to float with line pressure and pressurize the downstream seat to further enhance the in-line seal. However, the stem will tend to tilt and can side load conventional packing, leading to potential wear and eventual leakage to atmosphere. The SX seal in the XLB valve moves in conjunction with the spherical portion of the stem, maintaining a
constant seal to atmosphere.
Actuator mounting
fully compliant with ISO 5211 allowing use of standardized mounting kits
Lower torque smaller actuators, reduced costs, space and weight saving
