Product Description:

Built to survive in the most demanding conditions, our Heavy-Duty One Inch Lighter Gas Valve is engineered for harsh industrial environments such as chemical plants, offshore platforms, and wastewater treatment facilities. This valve features a robust corrosion-resistant finish, such as electroplated zinc or epoxy coating, that protects it from moisture, salt spray, and chemical fumes. It is designed as a highly dependable safety shut-off valve for pilot lines, providing a fail-safe point of isolation. The industrial-grade valve construction includes a reinforced stem and heavy-wall body to withstand physical impact and vibration. It performs flawlessly as a gas distribution valve, reliably directing fuel to critical ignition points. Choosing this valve means investing in a safety shut-off valve that prioritizes asset protection and operational continuity, ensuring your ignition systems remain functional and safe even in the most aggressive industrial settings.

Bullet Points:

• Protected by a superior corrosion-resistant finish for extended life in harsh environments.

• Acts as a critical safety shut-off valve for emergency isolation.

• Built as an industrial-grade valve to endure extreme conditions.

• Serves as a key point of control in the gas distribution network for pilot lights.

• Designed with a robust stem and body for maximum impact resistance.

Specific Application Scenario:
This valve is used on the pilot gas line of an incinerator burner in a wastewater treatment plant, where it is exposed to high humidity and corrosive gases.

Factory Production Floor:
After passing the pressure test, approved valves are sent to the plating department where they undergo a multi-stage cleaning and electroplating process to apply the corrosion-resistant finish before a final quality check.

Packing and Transportation:
Given their use in harsh environments, valves are individually wrapped in VCI (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor) paper and placed in heavy-duty, sealed plastic bags. They are then packed in wooden crates for maximum protection during ocean freight.

FAQ:

1. What type of corrosion-resistant finish does this valve have?

   • It typically features an electroplated zinc coating with a yellow chromate passivation, offering excellent resistance to rust and corrosion.

2. Can this valve be classified as a safety shut-off valve?

   • While it is manually operated, its robust construction and reliable sealing allow it to be designated as a manual safety shut-off valve within a gas train.

3. What defines an industrial-grade valve?

   • An industrial-grade valve like this one uses heavier construction, superior materials, and undergoes more rigorous testing than a standard commercial valve.

4. How does this valve function in gas distribution?

   • It is a key component in the gas distribution network, controlling the supply of fuel specifically to the pilot ignition system.

5. Is the safety shut-off function easy to operate with gloves?

   • Yes, the handle is designed to be large and easy to grip, even while wearing thick industrial gloves, ensuring it can be operated quickly when needed.
