JC Valves 316/340 Full Bore Floating DIN Ball Valves

The JC Valves 316/340 series is a full bore floating ball valve designed to comply with DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung) standards, ensuring seamless integration into European piping systems. These valves provide unrestricted flow with minimal pressure loss, making them ideal for demanding applications in oil and gas, chemical processing, power generation, and steam systems. The floating ball mechanism enables slight movement under pressure, ensuring a tight shut-off while reducing operational torque for smooth operation.

Key Features

Key features and benefits.
1

Key Features

The JC Valves 316/340 series features a full bore design, which means the internal diameter of the valve is equal to the pipeline diameter. This construction eliminates flow restrictions, ensuring that fluid can pass through with minimal turbulence and pressure drop.
2

Key Features

Safety is a key consideration in industrial applications, and the JC Valves 316/340 series is API 607 fire-safe and anti-static certified, providing protection in hazardous environments. The fire-safe design ensures that in the event of a fire or extreme heat exposure, the valve maintains its sealing capability, preventing the release of flammable or hazardous substances.
3

Key Features

The floating ball mechanism in these valves allows the ball to move slightly within the valve body under pressure, which helps it to form a secure and leak-proof seal against the valve seat. This feature enhances shut-off reliability and ensures consistent performance even in varying pressure conditions.
