Selection notes

Defined around your application.

  • Dedicated LH2 isolation
  • Insulated body and extended bonnet
  • Linear pneumatic operating package
ARD-ES-005 engineering requirements
Engineering dataConfiguration requirement
Shutdown functionSpecify trip logic, fail action, utility loss cases and required closing behaviour.
Assembly qualificationConfirm seat load, bellows design, material schedule and low-temperature leak testing.

Series limits guide enquiry and are not verified availability or approved operating limits for every size, pressure and operator combination. Confirm the selected design and pressure-temperature rating.

Fail-close action, response time, fire-test coverage and SIL qualification require evidence for the complete selected assembly; none follows from the product name alone.

Published ratings do not establish suitability for every listed medium. Oxygen cleaning, material compatibility, trapped-liquid relief and project approvals are specified for the selected assembly. Liquid-hydrogen and helium service require a separate temperature and material review.
