LIQUID METALS & MOLTEN SALTS
WHY CHOOSE OUR SERVICES
IN THE FIELD OF LIQUID METALS AND MOLTEN SALTS?
A design designed to withstand high temperatures and thermal shocks
All types of controls available (manual, pneumatic, electric)
A wide range of technologies (gate valves, globe valves, check valves)
Materials that meet the different temperature levels required (316L, Inconel 625, Incolloy 800H)
Specific sealing solutions mastered and proven by helium tests
Reduced pressure drops and optimized flows
Valves optimized for heat tracing and thermal insulation
A mastery of the various sealing solutions at the rod passage
With the tailor-made product we support you in your most complex projects.
Here are some examples of implementation:
Our design office is currently working on projects that completely revisit the design of a classic valve, to provide innovative solutions to the essential problems of valves.
This valve is fitted with a double sealing barrier using metal bellows and a compensation system in the event of a sodium fire. The entire valve and its accessories have been seismically qualified according to customer requirements.
OUR PRODUCTS DEDICATED TO LIQUID METALS
Gate valves with solidified seal
- Double sealing barrier at the rod passage with the formation of a solidified seal around the rod
- Inclined, ball-jointed double disc: bi-axial sealing
- Design guaranteeing the behavior of the solidified joint under thermal shock
- Stellate sealing contact
- Test port for leak detection
GATE VALVES WITH BELLOWS
- Double sealing barrier at the rod passage with metal bellows
- Inclined, ball-jointed double disc: bi-axial sealing
- Bonnet welded to the body: possibility of successive dismantling by machining
- Stellate sealing contact
- Test port for leak detection
VALVE VALVES WITH BELLOWS
- Double sealing barrier at the rod passage with metal bellows
- Specially designed body to improve electrical tracing and thermal shock resistance
- Parabolic valve to work in regulation
- Stellate sealing contact
- Test port for leak detection
GATE VALVES WITH BELLOWS
