Embrittlement
Materials may lose toughness in cold service.

Critical Service / Cryogenic & Low Temperature
Extended-bonnet and material-controlled solutions for LNG and low-temperature gas.
Engineering focus
Confirm fluid and minimum temperature, then verify material toughness, bonnet extension, cavity relief, cleanliness and cold-test acceptance.
Materials may lose toughness in cold service.
Clearances, torque and seat load can change.
A closed cavity can overpressure as liquid warms.
Valve selection
Starting points for engineering review. Final selection depends on the completed process data and project specification.
Best fit: Full-bore low-temperature isolation.
Engineering focus: Bonnet extension, guidance and cold leakage.
Best fit: Quarter-turn LNG isolation.
Engineering focus: Cavity relief, seats and stem seal.
Best fit: Isolation or controlled flow.
Engineering focus: Plug geometry, direction and thermal stress.
Buyer essentials
Send the same completed datasheet to every supplier and require a clear deviations list.
Composition, minimum design and normal temperature.
Design pressure, cavity case and Δp.
Extension, orientation and insulation boundary.
Seat, emission and external acceptance.
Degreasing, moisture and packaging.
Temperature, medium, soak, cycles and witness.
Service-specific RFQ data
Standards & verification
Confirm edition, test medium, pressure, duration, leakage acceptance, material traceability and witness points in the purchase order.
Buyer FAQ
It keeps packing away from the cold zone.
Provide a verified relief path toward the safe side.
Projects may require cold leakage, torque and operation tests.
Share the completed datasheet, quantity, destination and delivery target for a practical recommendation and factory quotation.
*Portfolio limits depend on valve type, size, material, pressure-temperature rating and completed engineering review.
