1.1 This standard specifies the requirements for metal ball valves suitable for petroleum, petrochemical, and industrial applications\u2014 corresponding to the nominal pipe sizes in ASME B36.10M\u2014that have: <\/p>\n

\u2014 flanged ends in sizes DN 15 through DN 600 (NPS 1\/2 through NPS 24); <\/p>\n

\u2014 butt-welding ends in sizes DN 15 through DN 600 (NPS 1\/2 through NPS 24); <\/p>\n

\u2014 socket-welding ends in sizes DN 8 through DN 50 (NPS 1\/4 through NPS 2); and <\/p>\n

\u2014 threaded ends in sizes DN 8 through DN 50 (NPS 1\/4 through NPS 2) 1.2 This standard applies to metal ball valves with pressure classes as follows: <\/p>\n

\u2014 flanged ends in Classes 150, 300, and 600; <\/p>\n

\u2014 butt-welding ends in Classes 150, 300, 600, and 800; <\/p>\n

\u2014 socket-welding ends in Classes 150, 300, 600, and 800; <\/p>\n

\u2014 threaded ends in Classes 150, 300, 600, and 800.<\/p>\n

1.3 This standard establishes requirements for bore sizes described as: <\/p>\n

\u2014 full bore; <\/p>\n

\u2014 single reduced bore; <\/p>\n

\u2014 double reduced bore. <\/p>\n

1.4 This standard applies to floating (seat-supported) ball (Figure C.1) and trunnion ball valve designs (Figure C.2). These figures are to be used only for the purpose of establishing standard nomenclature for valve components\u2014other floating and trunnion designs also exist. <\/p>\n

1.5 This standard establishes additional requirements for ball valves that are otherwise in full conformance to the requirements of ASME B16.34, Standard Class. <\/p>\n

1.6 If product is supplied bearing the API Monogram and is manufactured at a facility licensed by API, the requirements of Annex A shall apply. <\/p>\n

1.7 Trunnion ball valves equipped with double piston effect seats are outside of the scope of this standard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
