Description
TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
Close Die Forged Globe Valve
DN25, PN63, A105N Body, Stellite Seated, Bolted Bonnet, OS&Y
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This DN25 (1″) PN63 globe valve features a fully close-die forged body and bolted bonnet in ASTM A105N carbon steel. The valve is designed for high-pressure, non-corrosive services such as steam, feedwater, gas, and oil. The outside screw and yoke (OS&Y) configuration provides visual position indication and keeps the stem threads outside the fluid stream. All seating surfaces are hardfaced with Stellite Grade 6 for excellent resistance to wear, galling, and high-temperature erosion. The valve offers reliable metal-to-metal shutoff and is suitable for throttling, isolation, and frequent operation.
2. DESIGN FEATURES
-
Close Die Forging: Body and bonnet are forged for superior structural integrity, eliminating cast defects and providing uniform grain structure.
-
Bolted Bonnet: Secure body-bonnet joint with a fully confined graphite/stainless steel gasket for easy maintenance.
-
OS&Y Rising Stem: External Acme threads, handwheel indication, and backseat for repacking under pressure.
-
Metal Seated (Stellite Hardfaced): Integral body seat and disc face overlay of Stellite Gr.6 ensuring durability at high temperatures and pressures.
-
Rotating Disc: The disc swivels on the stem tip for even wear and perfect alignment with the seat.
-
Graphite Packing: Die-formed graphite rings with braided anti-extrusion ends for leak-free stem sealing across the full temperature range.

8. TESTING & INSPECTION (per EN 12266-1)
-
Shell Hydrostatic Test: 94.5 bar for minimum 60 seconds. No visible leakage allowed.
-
Seat Leakage Test: 69.3 bar water. Leakage rate shall not exceed EN 12266-1 Rate C limits for metal seated globe valves.
-
Backseat Test: Shell test pressure with packing loose, zero leakage from gland.
-
Optional: Pneumatic test (6 bar air), liquid penetrant (PT) or magnetic particle (MT) inspection on forgings, positive material identification (PMI).
9. COATING & PROTECTION
-
Exterior: High-build two-component epoxy paint, RAL 9005 (Jet Black), min. DFT 150 μm. Other colours available.
-
Stem: Polished working surface; exposed threads greased and covered with a stem protector.
-
Flanges: Raised face with protective coating and end caps during transit.
10. ACCESSORIES & OPTIONS
-
End Connection: Butt-Weld ends (BW), Socket Weld (SW), or Threaded (NPT) available on request.
-
Gearbox: Not required for DN25; available for larger sizes.
-
Locking Device: Padlockable handwheel in open or closed position.
-
Limit Switches / Positioner: Mechanical or proximity switches for remote indication.
-
Electric or Pneumatic Actuator: Mounting bracket according to ISO 5211 (flange size F05 or F07).
-
Material Upgrade: Full stainless steel body (A182 F316) for corrosive fluids.
-
Cryogenic Extension Bonnet: For low temperature services (down to -196°C).
11. NOTES
-
The valve is metal seated. A small leakage is permissible per EN 12266-1 Rate C. For zero-leakage (bubble-tight) shutoff, a soft-seated valve (e.g., PTFE or PEEK) must be specified, which will be limited to lower temperatures.
-
Install with flow direction as indicated by the arrow on the body—fluid must enter under the disc to ensure stable throttling and smooth operation.
-
For dead-end service, the maximum differential pressure must not exceed the rated seat test pressure.
-
During installation, ensure proper alignment and support to avoid induced stress on the valve body. Do not use the handwheel as a lifting point.
-
Regular inspection of packing and handwheel torque is recommended for steam and high-cycle applications.
