RGR Technologies has successfully designed, manufactured and tested a product for the Oil & Gas industry which has been added to its extensive product range. The 250 NB Class 900 trunnion mounted, PL series ball valve is on the way to the customer.
Designed and monogrammed to API 6D, this valve utilises a number of design features needed to meet the customer requirements and ensure compliance to API 6D such as an anti-blow out stem, double-piston effect seat primarily metal seated with a PTFE back-up seal, emergency sealant injection, anti-static device, body drain, and vent to name a few.
The valve was manufactured in South Africa and achieved a 95% local content. The body, end flanges, ball, and seats were manufactured from ASTM A350 LF2 CL1 while the ball and seats were coated with chrome carbide for increased wear resistance due to the nature of the process fluid.
RGR Technologies is an ISO 9001 certified and comply with the requirements of API Q1, which ensures that this valve meets all the quality requirements, traceability and NDE requirements of its customers.
