Due to its unique one-piece body structure, the HABONIM Series 50 Top Entry Valve is the ultimate answer for pipeline integrity on the one hand and inline serviceability on the other.
The 50 Series of HABONIM bidirectional top entry cryogenic ball valves are a modern adaption of a trunnion ball valve with top entry construction and patent-pending new design elements.
The main challenge for an assembly or maintenance team with a standard top entry valve is usually the complexity of assembly and disassembly of the valve inner parts, the time-consuming operation, and the requirement for special equipment and jigs.
All of these problems are addressed and solved by HABONIM's Series 50 top entry valve design.
Upon removing the valve bonnet screws, the crew has immediate access to the valve's interior parts, allowing for thorough maintenance and replacement of all inner components and sealing. This one-of-a-kind design provides for complete valve renovation inline without the need to remove any insulation pieces.
One Double Piston Effect (DPE) dynamic seat is used in the patent-pending design, allowing bidirectional sealing under the full differential and a relatively simple design with few parts and no closed cavities. These qualities provide all of the advantages of a ball valve's high flow (Cv) with no restriction on flow direction or sealing, as well as a safer cryogenic construction.
When installed, a patent-pending supplementary optional body extender raises the valve's bonnet above piping insulation, allowing the valve to be maintained without removing the insulation or without special valve insulation boxes.
The valve's revolutionary design allows for quick inline serviceability with minimal effort and inexpensive equipment for valve dismantling, replacement, and reassembly.
