  • What Is a Bellows Type Steel Globe Valve?

    1. Definition
      A Bellows Type Steel Globe Valve is a globe valve designed with a bellows seal structure instead of a conventional packing seal. This design ensures complete leak prevention, especially in systems operating under high pressure, high temperature, or containing hazardous liquids and steam.

    2. Structure of a Bellows Type Globe Valve

    • Body: Made from carbon steel, alloy steel, or stainless steel, capable of withstanding high temperature and pressure.

    • Bonnet: Houses the bellows seal mechanism.

    • Bellows Seal: Made from stainless steel (SS304, SS316L), capable of expanding and contracting to ensure absolute sealing.

    • Stem: Connects the valve disc and controls the opening/closing of the flow.

    • Disc: Regulates the flow of liquid or steam in the system.

    • Handwheel: Used to manually open or close the valve.

    1. Advantages of Bellows Type Globe Valves

    • Absolute Leak Prevention: The bellows seal design completely prevents medium leakage to the outside.

    • Long Service Life: The bellows are designed to withstand thousands of open/close cycles, extending valve life.

    • High Temperature and Pressure Resistance: Suitable for steam, hot oil, compressed air, and chemical systems.

    • Reduced Maintenance Costs: No need for frequent replacement of packing seals like conventional globe valves.

    • Compliance with Safety Standards: Especially important in industries requiring high sealing performance, such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and oil & gas.

    1. Applications of Bellows Type Globe Valves

    • Steam Systems: Power plants, industrial boilers.

    • Oil & Gas and Chemical Industries: Piping systems carrying hazardous and toxic media.

    • Pharmaceutical and Food Industries: Saturated steam systems, purified water systems.

    • Central Heating and HVAC Systems: Controlling the flow of hot water or thermal oil.

    1. Common Standards and Notable Manufacturers

    • Design Standards: API 602, ANSI B16.34, DIN, JIS.

    • Popular Brands: KSB (Germany), ETM (China).
