DK55-BVJ Electric Jacketed Ball Valve - Insulated for Molten & High-Viscosity Fluids (Anti-Clogging)
The DK55-BVJ Electric Jacketed Ball Valve is an essential component for processes handling fluids that solidify or become highly viscous at ambient temperatures, such as asphalt, molten sulfur, resins, and polymers. It features an integrated heating jacket that circulates steam, hot oil, or water to maintain the internal process fluid at a consistent temperature, guaranteeing automated, clog-free operation. Coupled with the reliable electric actuator, this valve ensures continuous flow, prevents expensive downtime, and maintains process integrity in critical temperature-dependent pipelines.
Features
An electric jacketed ball valve designed to prevent solidification and clogging of high-viscosity and molten media by maintaining a consistent internal temperature throughout the valve body for continuous automated flow.
✅Integrated Heating Jacket for Temperature Control: An external jacket surrounds the valve body, allowing the circulation of heating media (steam, hot oil, or hot water). This maintains the internal process temperature, effectively preventing the fluid from solidifying or becoming overly viscous.
✅Guaranteed Clog-Free Operation: The constant temperature maintenance ensures the process medium remains in a fluid state, eliminating common issues like clogging and pipe blockage, which are critical for media like liquid sulfur, polymers, and bitumen.
✅Reliable Electric Automation: Equipped with the electric actuator, the valve offers precise, reliable on/off or modulating control. This allows for safe, remote automation of difficult media flows, improving operational safety and efficiency.
✅Full Jacketing Coverage & Durability: The jacket design ensures uniform heat distribution across the entire valve body. Typically constructed from robust materials (e.g., Cast Steel), the valve offers high mechanical strength and long service life in demanding thermal environments.
✅Standard Ball Valve Advantages: Maintains the inherent advantages of a ball valve: quick quarter-turn operation, low fluid resistance, and excellent sealing capabilities when fully closed.
