In industrial applications, the performance of the check valve directly affects the safety and efficiency of the system. Therefore, when selecting the valve body material, it is crucial to conduct an in-depth analysis of the characteristics of the fluid medium. Factors such as the corrosiveness, temperature, pressure, flow rate, and the presence of solid particles of the fluid are all key factors affecting the material selection.
Corrosiveness analysis For corrosive fluids such as acids, alkalis, and salt solutions, it is crucial to select materials with outstanding corrosion resistance. Ningbo Baodi's check valve products use PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) materials, which perform well in a variety of corrosive media, can effectively prevent corrosion, and ensure the long-term stable operation of the valve.
Temperature factors
The temperature of the fluid is also a key factor to consider when selecting the valve body material. High-temperature fluids may cause the material to soften, deform, or even fail, while low-temperature fluids may make the material brittle. Ningbo Baodi's check valves use CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride) materials, which can maintain excellent physical and chemical properties in high-temperature environments; while UPVC (rigid polyvinyl chloride) materials show good toughness and impact resistance under low-temperature conditions.
Pressure influence
The pressure of the fluid medium is directly related to the strength and sealing performance of the valve body. Under high pressure environment, materials with high strength and high rigidity must be selected. Ningbo Baodi optimizes the valve body structure design and combines the characteristics of high-performance plastic materials to ensure that its check valve can withstand high fluid pressure, thereby achieving a reliable sealing effect.
Flow rate and solid particles
The medium with a high flow rate will exert a large scouring force on the valve body, while the fluid containing solid particles may cause wear on the surface of the valve body. Ningbo Baodi's check valve uses FRPP (reinforced polypropylene) material, which has excellent wear resistance and can effectively resist scouring and wear, thereby extending the service life of the valve.
Material performance evaluation and selection
After a comprehensive analysis of the fluid medium characteristics, the next step is to conduct a systematic performance evaluation of the candidate materials. This includes corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, low temperature resistance, strength, rigidity, wear resistance, sealing and processing performance.
Corrosion resistance
Selecting materials that can resist corrosion from fluid media is the basis for ensuring long-term and stable operation of valves. Ningbo Baodi's check valve products use high-performance plastic materials such as PVDF and CPVC, and are widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, food and other fields with high corrosion requirements.
High temperature resistance and low temperature resistance
Depending on the temperature range of the fluid medium, it is important to select materials that can maintain stable physical and chemical properties within this range. Ningbo Baodi's check valves use PVDF materials, which can maintain excellent performance in high temperature environments; UPVC materials show good toughness and impact resistance under low temperature conditions.
Strength and rigidity
Choosing high-strength and high-rigidity materials to ensure that the valve can withstand fluid pressure, scouring force and wear of solid particles is a core requirement of the design. By comprehensively considering the characteristics of various materials, Ningbo Baodi is committed to providing high-performance check valves to meet the needs of different industrial applications.
