KAT – Ceramic Lined Floating Ball Valve (Low Pressure Applications)

The CeraValve type KAT is a ceramic-lined ball valve suitable for corrosive media with abrasive solids content. The high quality ceramic internal parts provide excellent wear resistance. The valve can operate as an On/Off Valve as well as a Throttling Control Valve.

The CeraValve type KAT has a spring-loaded upstream seat. The ball has no clearance between the seats and always seals. This design is particularly useful in applications with low differential pressure or slow pressure build-up. The valve housing and flanges are made of 304 Stainless Steel with the option for several other materials of construction. Other ceramic materials are also available for selection other than the standard Zirconia ball and Alumina seats.

The valve can be equipped with a hand lever or with SAMSON GROUP actuators and valve accessories such as positioners, limit switches, and solenoid valves.

Size: 1/2″ to 12″

ANSI Class: 150 to 600

Std. Materials: Ceramic Lined Stainless Steel

Temperature Range: -22 to 590oF (-30 to 310oC)

KGT – Ceramic Lined Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve

The CeraValve type KGT is a ceramic-lined ball valve suitable for corrosive media with abrasive solids content. The high quality ceramic internal parts provide excellent wear resistance. The valve can operate as an On/Off Valve as well as a Throttling Control Valve.

The CeraValve type KGT has a trunnion mounted ball design behind a spring-loaded upstream seat. There is a cone sleeve downstream of the ball rather than a seat ring. The valve housing and flanges are made of 304 Stainless Steel with the option for several other materials of construction. Other ceramic materials are also available for selection other than the standard Zirconia ball and Alumina seats.

The valve can be equipped with a hand lever or with SAMSON GROUP actuators and valve accessories such as positioners, limit switches, and solenoid valves.

KST – Ceramic Lined Floating Ball Valve

The CeraValve type KST is a ceramic-lined ball valve suitable for corrosive media with abrasive solids content. The high quality ceramic internal parts provide excellent wear resistance. The valve can operate as an On/Off Valve as well as a Throttling Control Valve.

The CeraValve type KST has a floating ball design. There is a defined clearance between the ball and the fixed upstream and downstream seats. The ball is seated against the downstream seat by the differential pressure of the fluid through the valve. The valve housing and flanges are made of 304 Stainless Steel with the option for several other materials of construction. Other ceramic materials are also available for selection other than the standard Zirconia ball and Alumina seats. The CeraValve type KST-HT is also available for high temperature applications.

These valves can be equipped with a hand lever or with SAMSON GROUP actuators and valve accessories such as positioners, limit switches, and solenoid valves.

Size: 1/2″ to 12″

ANSI Class: 150 to 600

Std. Materials: Ceramic Lined Stainless Steel

Temperature Range: -22 to 590oF (-30 to 310oC)

KSV – Ceramic Lined Floating Ball Valve (Corrosive Applications)

The CeraValve type KSV is a ceramic-lined ball valve suitable for corrosive media with abrasive solids content. The high quality ceramic internal parts provide excellent wear resistance. The valve can operate as an On/Off Valve as well as a Throttling Control Valve.

The CeraValve type KSV has a floating ball design. There is a defined clearance between the ball and the fixed upstream and downstream seats. The ball is seated against the downstream seat by the differential pressure of the fluid through the valve. The valve housing is made of 304 Stainless Steel and the flanges are made of Halar-coated Carbon Steel. Other ceramic materials are available for selection other than the standard Zirconia ball and Alumina seats.

The valve can be equipped with a hand lever or with SAMSON GROUP actuators and valve accessories such as positioners, limit switches, and solenoid valves.

KZT – Ceramic Lined Trunnion Mounted Ball Valve

The CeraValve type KZT is a ceramic-lined ball valve suitable for corrosive media with abrasive solids content. The high quality ceramic internal parts provide excellent wear resistance. The valve can operate as an On/Off Valve as well as a Throttling Control Valve.

The CeraValve type KZT has a trunnion mounted ball design between two spring-loaded seats. The ball has no clearance between the seats and is primarily sealed at the upstream seat. This design allows the valve to be pressurized in both directions. The valve is capable of operating with low differential pressures. The valve housing and flanges are made of 304 Stainless Steel with the option for several other materials of construction. Other ceramic materials are also available for selection other than the standard Zirconia ball and Alumina seats.

The valve can be equipped with a hand lever or with SAMSON GROUP actuators and valve accessories such as positioners, limit switches, and solenoid valves.
