4″ DN100 PN40 Cryogenic Globe Valve | CF8 Stainless Steel, Extended Bonnet

Engineered for extreme sub-zero flow control, this premium DN100 PN40 flanged cryogenic globe valve is precision-cast from CF8 (304) Stainless Steel. Featuring a specialized extended bonnet with a drip plate, it effectively isolates the stem packing from deep-cold media, preventing frost seizure and guaranteeing smooth operation down to -196°C. Designed specifically as a CF8 stainless steel throttling valve, it delivers highly precise flow regulation and absolute zero-leakage shut-off for LNG, liquid oxygen, and cryogenic air separation plants.

🏭 Engineering & Throttling Highlights:

  • Precision Flow Control: Engineered with a specialized plug-type disc for accurate throttling characteristics under PN40 (4.0 MPa) high-pressure conditions.
  • Cryogenic Toughness: CF8 (ASTM A351) casting undergoes deep cryogenic treatment to eliminate structural deformation under extreme cold.
  • Flanged Connection: Standard EN 1092-1 PN40 RF ends for seamless and secure integration into European and global pipeline systems.
  • Testing Standard: Strictly manufactured and leak-tested in accordance with BS 6364 cryogenic valve standards.
Valve Type Extended Bonnet Cryogenic Globe Valve (Plug Disc)
Operating Temp -46°C to -196°C
Design & Flange Standard BS 6364 / EN 1092-1 (PN40 RF)
Body Material CF8 (ASTM A351 304 Stainless Steel)
