Smart Control Ball Valve: Combination of High Corrosion Resistance and Precision Flow Control

RAYS has recently completed a significant delivery of specially designed control ball valves and ultra-high temperature ball valves. These products are destined for critical applications in the chemical, oil, and natural gas industries.The high-temperature hard-sealed control ball valve utilizes advanced principles of fluid dynamics and material science to ensure superior performance under varying temperatures and pressures. Our designs include: Control Hole Valve Seats: These seats segment the fluid flow into smaller units, smoothing the flow and reducing both turbulence and mechanical impact on the seat. Orifice Plate Valve Bodies: This design distributes the fluid dynamics more evenly, reducing erosion and extending the valve’s service life. V-Type Valve Seats: Ideal for media containing solid particles, the V-notch shears particles away, minimizing clogging and providing precise flow control. Each valve incorporates sensors and intelligent control systems for remote monitoring and automated operation. The system adjusts valve settings in real-time, optimizing efficiency and reducing energy consumption.Our ultra-high temperature ball valves are crafted from materials that withstand extreme conditions, maintaining mechanical strength and corrosion resistance from -75C to +515C. These valves feature innovative graphite seal designs that adjust based on pipeline pressure.Throughout the manufacturing process, the RAYS team closely engaged with our customers to customize solutions to their specific needs. Rigorous testing, including low-temperature impact and intergranular corrosion tests, ensures that our products meet stringent international standards.Looking ahead, RAYS is committed to advancing valve technology through continuous research and development, deepening our understanding of customer needs, and delivering efficient, reliable solutions for demanding industrial applications.ProductControl Ball ValveMaterialA350 LF2, A182 F316, F11Nominal SizeNPS 12″~40“Pressure RateCL 150~900Temperature Range-52C~+400COperatorManual, PneumaticApplication RangeVarious industrial applications including chemical, oil and gas.ProductHigh Temperature Ball ValveMaterialA182 F304Nominal SizeNPS 2″Pressure RateCL 300Temperature Range-75C~+515COperatorManual, PneumaticApplication RangeVarious industrial applications including chemical, oil and gas.…

Extra-large Slab Gate Valves — Size and Performance in Parallel

RAYS has recently delivered a batch of extra-large slab gate valves to overseas clients. These valves incorporate a parallel single gate and floating seat design, enabling bidirectional operation. They are designed to ensure reliable sealing, flexible operation, and ease of use in opening and closing.The gate valves support nominal diameters up to DN1200 and include specially designed flow holes to optimize fluid dynamic characteristics. When fully opened, the pipeline’s alignment with the gate’s flow holes mimics a straight pipe, thus minimizing flow resistance. This design significantly reduces overall pressure loss within the system, decreases energy consumption, and enhances system efficiency and performance.The slab gate valves feature a precision-closing mechanism where the gate vertically moves through a precise guide system. This mechanism drastically reduces the friction coefficient and wear during operation. The sealing surfaces of the seats offer options between dual soft seals or a combination of soft and hard seals, facilitating a dual-seal effect on each seat surface. The floating seat design enables the inlet side seat to move toward the gate under medium pressure when the valve is closed, creating a substantial sealing pressure ratio and establishing the primary seal. Concurrently, the gate presses against the outlet side seat to form a robust double seal. The valve’s stem uses composite packing for enhanced sealing, ensuring reliability and minimal friction. The innovative double-seal structure also facilitates the replacement of wearable parts without impacting the pipeline operation, distinguishing our products from similar offerings domestically and internationally.As the global demand for high-performance, reliable industrial valves grows within the energy and chemical sectors; RAYS is committed to continuously enhancing product designs and expanding production capacity to meet market needs. RAYS is dedicated to advancing technology and expanding its domestic and international market presence.ProductSlab Gate ValveMaterial20GLNominal SizeDN 1200Pressure RatePN 16Temperature Range-45C~+80COperatorBare StemApplication RangeVarious industrial applications including chemical, oil and gas…

Export to Poland—Lift Plug Valves’ Innovative Design

RAYS recently successfully signed a valve order for export to Poland, including lift plug valves and three-way lift plug valves.This batch of plug valves is suitable for various industrial applications, including chemical, oil, and natural gas processing. The lift-type plug valves have optimized fluid dynamics performance, reducing fluid resistance, enhancing fluid transportation efficiency, and reducing energy consumption and wear during operation. Moreover, their unique lift structure allows the plug to disengage from the seat during the opening and closing, making the operation very smooth. Additionally, the sealing surfaces are less likely to be scratched during opening or closing, which increases the valve’s lifespan.Furthermore, the order also includes three-way lift plug valves. This type of three-way valve design can distribute fluid or mix within the same device, greatly enhancing the system’s flexibility and efficiency. The modular design of the three-way plug valves makes maintenance and replacement more convenient. At the same time, high-level sealing performance effectively prevents potential leaks, ensuring the safe operation of industrial systems.In the future, RAYS will continue to deepen its expertise in the petrochemical industry, rapidly respond to customer needs, and provide customers with the fastest delivery, most stable industry performance, and most reliable quality products!ProductPlug ValveMaterial1.4408Nominal SizeDN 80~100Pressure RatePN 16Temperature Range-46C~+180COperatorHandwheelApplication RangeVarious industrial applications including chemical, oil and gas…
