Duplex Ball Valve

Duplex ball valves and super duplex ball valves are extremely corrosion resistant, particularly resistant to not only chloride stress corrosion but also chloride pitting corrosion.

Corrosion Resistance
Ball valve made of duplex stainless steel are extremely corrosion-resistant. They have high resistance to intergranular corrosion. Even in chloride and sulfide environments, duplex stainless steel ball valve exhibits very high resistance to stress corrosion cracking. The super-duplex ball valves are even more resistant to corrosion.

Duplex Steel and Super Duplex Ball Valve Material:
● Duplex 2205(A890 4A, A182 F51,22Cr-5Ni-Mo-N, DIN 1.4462)
● Super Duplex 2507 (A890 5A, A182 F53,25Cr-7Ni-Mo-N,DIN 1.4410)
● Super Duplex (A890 6A, A182 F55,25Cr-7Ni-Mo-N,DIN 1.4501)
● Super Duplex (A182 F60, UNS S32205)

Application of duplex ball valves
● Desalination:
 - Reverse osmosis (RO)
 - Brackish water reverse osmosis (BWRO)
 - Seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO)
 - Geothermal water
● Offshore oil and gas industry
● Pulp and paper industry
● Chemical industry: 
 - Sulphuric acid
 - Nitric acid
 - Saliferous fluids, hydroxide

The microstructures of duplex steel consist of a mixture of austenite and ferrite phases. As a result, duplex stainless steels display properties characteristic of both austenitic and ferritic stainless steels. This combination of properties can mean some
compromise when compared with pure austenitic and pure ferritic grades.

Suitable Temperature
The high chromium content of Duplex stainless steel, which protects against corrosion, causes embrittlement at temperatures over about 300°C. At low temperatures, duplex stainless steels have better ductility than ferritic and martensitic grades. Duplex grades can readily be used down to at least -50 °C.
