Main functions and purpose of the KOAF interflange valve:
Isolation and flow shutoff:
The KOAF interflange valve is used to shut off flow in pipelines, e.g. when maintenance, repair or replacement of system components is required.
Sealing:
This valve helps create a tight seal between flanges, ensuring that the flow of gas, oil or liquid is completely stopped. This is important to prevent leaks in the pipelines and for the safe operation of the system.
Pressure Control:
The valve regulates the pressure in the piping system, ensuring safety and preventing pressure limits from being exceeded, which can cause damage to equipment.
Safety:
The valve is used to provide safety in emergency situations. In the event of leaks or other emergencies, it can be quickly closed to prevent the accident from spreading further.
Ease of maintenance and installation:
Interflanged valves are convenient to install and maintain because they are mounted between pipeline flanges, making it easy to connect and remove equipment. It also speeds up the process of replacing or repairing system components.
Advantages of using a KOAF interflange valve:
High tightness: Provides reliable isolation and prevents leakage of working fluids or gases.
Ease of installation: Easy installation between flanges allows quick connection or removal of the valve.
Reduces the risk of accidents: Allows for rapid shut-off of flows in case of emergencies, preventing leakage and damage to equipment.
Suitable for heavy duty: The valve is designed to operate under high pressure and temperature conditions, making it effective in heavy duty applications.
Application of KOAF Interflange Valve:
In pipeline systems:
For isolating sections of pipelines, controlling flow and providing safety in the transportation of oil, gas and other liquids.
On oil and gas platforms:
For flow control and isolation of various sections of equipment.
During maintenance and repair:
To isolate specific sections of the system during maintenance or equipment replacements.
In high-pressure systems:
To work with pipelines that pump substances under high pressure.
