Cryogenic Valves – ANSI
Cryogenics involves converting substances from a gaseous to a liquid state or separating them at extremely low temperatures. Cryogenic gate and globe valves, available in full or reduced bore designs, are engineered for pipelines carrying liquids at temperatures down to -150 °C. For even more precise flow control, our shut-off valves can be fitted with an optional control plug (throttling cone or regulating disc).
Key Features
Cryogenic valves are specifically designed for use at extremely low temperatures, down to -150 °C. They ensure safe and reliable flow of cryogenic liquids in pipelines and are available as both Gate Valves and globe valves, in full or reduced bore designs. For precise flow control, shut-off valves can be equipped with an optional control plug (throttling cone or regulating disc), ensuring excellent performance in low-temperature applications
Extreme Temperature Resistance
Designed to operate safely at temperatures as low as -150 °C, maintaining reliable performance even under the harshest conditions.
Versatile Designs
Available as gate or globe valves with full or reduced bore, suitable for a wide range of cryogenic applications.
Precise flow control
The integrated control plug (regulation disc) allows for accurate regulation of fluid flow, even under demanding operating conditions.
