Forged Steel Valve

API 608 Lever Operate Forged Steel F316 Wafer Ball Valve

Summary

Lever Operate Forged Steel F316 Wafer Ball Valve is designed for quarter-turn isolation in oil and gas, chemical and process piping under Forged steel ball valve. Forged construction is selected where compact high-pressure integrity is required. Typical duties include oil & gas, power generation, chemical processing. Confirm end connection, trim, actuation and inspection scope against the approved project data sheet.

Features

Product features

  • Forged-body construction
  • High-pressure service options
  • Project-specific end and trim configuration

Advantages

Selection advantages

  • Select NPS and pressure class inside the published catalogue envelope; freeze the working size on the data sheet before GA release.
  • Design basis and face-to-face follow the standards shown in the technical grid; do not assume a single standard covers every option.

Product FAQ

Engineering answers

What size and pressure range is the Lever Operate Forged Steel F316 Wafer Ball Valve supplied in?

The catalogue series is DN8-DN50 (1/4"-2"), Class 800-1500 / PN133-PN250. A single NPS/class line in the notes is a typical working-size snapshot for drawing discussion, not the series limit. Confirm NPS, class, bore and trim against the approved data sheet.

Which documentation is included in a standard EPC MDR package?

When specified: approved GA drawing, EN 10204 3.1 material certificates, hydrostatic/pneumatic test records to the applicable test standard, NDE reports required by the ITP, coating records if painted, and the ITP release note. CAD/STEP models and bilingual datasheets are issued after size, class and trim are frozen — they are not generic public downloads.

Which design and test standards apply to the Lever Operate Forged Steel F316 Wafer Ball Valve?

Design reference: API 608, ASME B16.34. Face-to-face: ASME B16.10 / ASME B16.11. Pressure test / inspection: API 598 / project ITP. NACE, fire-safe or fugitive-emission clauses are quoted only when the purchase specification requires them.
