L&T Valves
 L&T Valves offers a range of Floating Ball Valves in sizes up to 12”

Ball Valves
(300 mm) in a variety of body options, materials and end connections.
Valves with pneumatic, electrical or hydraulic actuators can also be offered.

Designs for L&T ball valves are created in accordance with key international
standards. Reliability of the products is established through a series of
endurance and fire tests. Modern manufacturing and quality assurance
processes are employed to ensure reliable performance and low cost of
ownership.

The valve facility in Coimbatore is equipped for high-volume production

and can manufacture over fifty thousand ball valves in a month.

Features & Benefits

constructions. In these valves, line pressure forces the floating ball against
the downstream seat to effect bubble-tight sealing.

Blowout Proof Stem

The side-entry stem of L&T ball valves has a
shoulder that bears against a matching shoulder
in the body to make it blowout proof - the
higher the line pressure, the better the sealing to
atmosphere.

High Integrity Stem Sealing

Sealing to atmosphere is further enhanced by
stem thrust seals and stem packing rings. To
compensate for wear and thermal expansions,
Belleville springs are used.

Inserts in single-piece ball Mirror-finished Solid Stainless Steel Balls

removal. operating torques, mirror-finished balls are used
as a standard. The solid construction of the balls
guarantees higher structural strength.

Seats with Pressure-relieving Slots

Seats with fine grain structure are used to ensure
better strength and longer life. Pressure-relieving
slots are a unique feature of L&T ball valves. The
slots relieve upstream pressure when the valve is
in closed position and prevent seat damage.

leak-tight seal. In valves of smaller sizes, electrical continuity is
achieved by using Carbon-filled PTFE thrust seal
and graphite stem packings.

Cavity Pressure Relief Mechanism

A slight increase in temperature of fluid
entrapped in ball cavity can cause a rapid
increase of pressure and damage the ball and
seats.

To prevent this, L&T ball valves are equipped

with automatic cavity relief mechanisms. When
the valve is in open position, a hole provided on
the ball connects the body cavity to the ball port
and thereby ensure that cavity pressure does
not build up. In the closed condition, when the
cavity pressure rises above a designated level,
the seat lip deflects to relieve pressure to the
upstream side.
