Key Features

Key features and benefits of Ringo Ball Valves.
1

Key Features

Ringo Ball Valves are offered in both top entry and trunnion-mounted configurations to suit a variety of industrial needs. The top entry design allows for maintenance and inspection of internal components without removing the valve from the pipeline—ideal for critical process lines where downtime must be minimised. The trunnion-mounted option is perfect for high-pressure applications, offering added support to the ball and ensuring consistent sealing by reducing operating torque and preventing seat deformation.

Key Features

Safety is a core principle in Ringo’s valve engineering. These valves are designed to meet API 607 and ISO 10497 fire-safe standards, ensuring that in the event of a fire, the valve maintains its pressure-containing capabilities. Additionally, anti-static features provide a safe path to discharge any static electricity build-up, which is crucial in applications involving flammable fluids or gases. This ensures safe operation in hazardous or explosive atmospheres across oil & gas, chemical, and power sectors.

Key Features

Ringo Ball Valves are available in an extensive selection of materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, duplex, super duplex, and exotic alloys such as Inconel, Monel, and Hastelloy. This versatility enables them to perform reliably in highly corrosive or erosive environments such as offshore platforms, chemical plants, and marine applications. Custom trim and coating options are also available, allowing each valve to be tailored to the specific media, pressure, and temperature requirements of the system.
