CRYOGENIC VALVES

Cryogenic Valves Engineered to Your Specification

Down to −196 °C for LNG and air separation.

Product Range

Each family is available as a made-to-order valve sized for your operating parameters — no standard catalogue SKUs, engineering-led specification. Compare the cryogenic gate valve specifications and the cryogenic valve size and pressure range.

Cryogenic Butterfly Valve — Triple-Offset with Maintenance Port

Triple-offset metal-seated cryogenic butterfly valve with a maintenance port, so the seat can be serviced without cutting the line. The extended bonnet keeps the stem packing above 0 °C in service down to −196 °C.

DN200–1600 | Class 150–1500

Trunnion-mounted cryogenic ball valve with gearbox operatorCryogenic Ball Valve — Floating & Trunnion-Mounted — detail view

Cryogenic Ball Valve — Floating & Trunnion-Mounted

Floating and trunnion-mounted cryogenic ball valve with a full bore, so pressure drop stays minimal. A drip pan and extended bonnet keep the packing above 0 °C, and excess cavity pressure relieves automatically.

DN15–1050 | Class 150–2500

Flexible wedge cryogenic gate valve with extended bonnetCryogenic Gate Valve — Flexible Wedge with Stellite-Overlaid Seats — detail view

Cryogenic Gate Valve — Flexible Wedge with Stellite-Overlaid Seats

Flexible-wedge cryogenic gate valve with double-stellite seats that hold tight as the body contracts. A relief hole in the disc balances abnormal cavity pressure, and the extended bonnet keeps the packing above 0 °C.

DN15–800 | Class 150–2500

Cryogenic globe valve with conical metal-to-metal seatCryogenic Globe Valve — Conical Metal-to-Metal Seat — detail view

Cryogenic Globe Valve — Conical Metal-to-Metal Seat

Conical metal-to-metal seat for repeatable shut-off and throttling duty. Short travel and low torque suit frequent cycling, and the extended bonnet keeps the packing above 0 °C.

DN15–800 | Class 150–2500

Cryogenic check valve — axial-flow pattern, one-piece bodyCryogenic check valve — bolted-bonnet body with flow arrow, 12 inch Class 600

Cryogenic Check Valve — Lift, Swing & Axial-Flow Patterns

Lift, swing and axial-flow patterns, so the body can match the piping layout. The seats are stellite-overlaid for erosion resistance, and the swing pattern has no external leakage path.

Size Range

From DN15 to DN400+ — one production line.

Cryogenic valves are engineered to order in every size class: compact needle and ball valves for small-bore lines, volume batches of extended-bonnet gate valves, and large-bore butterfly and fully-welded ball valves supplied with lifting lugs for engineered projects.

Manufacturing & Testing Capabilities

  • Cryogenic treatment of pressure-retaining parts for dimensional stability
  • Extended-bonnet design keeps stem packing above 0 °C during cryogenic service
  • Liquid-nitrogen functional testing at −196 °C
  • Fire-safe and low-emission (ISO 15848-1) certified designs
  • Design life 30+ years (per manufacturer's datasheet)

Liquid-nitrogen functional testing at −196 °C — a valve submerged in the LN₂ bath, surface frosted and the cryogen boiling off during the test cycle.
