Feature
1. Trunnion Design
The ball is fixed in place by a trunnion (a shaft or pin) at the top and bottom, which reduces the load on the valve seats and ensures stable operation.
2. Low Operating Torque
The trunnion design reduces the friction between the ball and the seats, requiring less force to operate the valve. This is especially beneficial in high-pressure applications.
3. Double Block and Bleed (DBB) Capability
Trunnion mounted ball valves can isolate both upstream and downstream sides of the valve simultaneously, allowing for the bleeding of pressure or fluid from the cavity between the seats.
4. Sealing Performance
The design provides better sealing performance, as the seats are spring-loaded or activated by the line pressure to maintain a tight seal.
5. Safety and Reliability
These valves are known for their high reliability and are often used in critical applications like oil and gas, petrochemical, and power industries.
6. Size and Pressure Handling
Suitable for larger diameters and high-pressure conditions, trunnion mounted ball valves can handle a wide range of pressures and temperatures.
7. Bi-Directional Operation
These valves can control the flow of fluid in both directions, providing flexibility in various piping configurations.
8. Extended Service Life
The reduced wear and tear on the seats due to the trunnion support leads to a longer service life and lower maintenance costs.
9. Emergency Sealant Injection System
Many trunnion mounted ball valves have an emergency sealant injection system that allows for sealing in case of seat damage.
10. Fire-Safe Design
Many trunnion mounted ball valves are designed to be fire-safe, ensuring operation even under fire conditions to prevent leakage and maintain control.
These features make trunnion mounted ball valves a preferred choice for demanding applications where durability, reliability, and performance are critical.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What are the main benefits of a trunnion mounted design?
A1: The trunnion design supports the ball at both the top and bottom, which reduces the load on the valve seats. This ensures stable operation, lower operating torque, and highly reliable sealing performance under high-pressure conditions.
Q2: What standards do these trunnion mounted ball valves conform to?
A2: Our valves are designed according to API6D standard, with face-to-face dimensions conforming to ASME B16.10, flange dimensions conforming to ASME B16.5, and testing conducted in compliance with API598.
Q3: Does this valve support Double Block and Bleed (DBB) operation?
A3: Yes, these valves feature DBB capability. They can isolate both upstream and downstream sides simultaneously, allowing users to bleed the pressure or trapped fluid from the body cavity safely.
Q4: What is the purpose of the emergency sealant injection system?
A4: In the event of seat damage or wear, the emergency sealant injection system allows operators to inject sealant directly to restore the seal, preventing leakage until maintenance can be performed.
Q5: Are these valves suitable for bi-directional flow?
A5: Yes, our trunnion mounted ball valves are designed for bi-directional operation, providing great flexibility in piping configurations and flow management.
