In the field of industrial valves, the ASME B16.34 standard is one of the most authoritative and widely recognized design and manufacturing specifications globally. This standard covers valves with flange, threaded, and welded end connections, providing comprehensive guidance for the design, manufacture, testing, and application of valves. For the
gate valve, a widely used valve type, the ASME B16.34 standard has strict regulations in many aspects such as material selection, structural design, and performance testing to ensure the reliability and safety of gate valves under various complex working conditions.
(I) Ensure material reliability
By strictly stipulating the classification and performance requirements of materials, the ASME B16.34 standard ensures the reliability and durability of gate valves under different working conditions. Selecting materials that meet the standards can effectively prevent leakage or damage of valves due to material defects.
The standard puts forward detailed requirements for the design and manufacture of gate valves, strictly regulating from structural strength to sealing performance. These requirements enable gate valves to operate safely in high-pressure, high-temperature and corrosive environments, reducing accident risks.
(III) Standardize production processes
The ASME B16.34 standard provides unified production specifications for valve manufacturers, ensuring the standardization and consistency of the production process. This not only improves product quality but also reduces production costs.
Gate valves that comply with the ASME B16.34 standard have higher recognition and trust in the market. When users choose valves that meet this standard, they can apply them to key working conditions with more confidence.
