Velan was a Major Valve Supplier to Barh

The Velan order for Barh, was worth more than $20 million —it included high-pressure gate, globe, and check valves as well as steam traps and other equipment totaling approximately 4,700 items, plus spares. Six of the 20˝ forged high-pressure gate valves are motor-operated, and they’re in special F91 material for 2900 class service. The plant installed the Velan patented Ultraflex™ wedge valves, an enhanced gate valve with a flexible wedge that is particularly suitable for high-temperature, high-pressure, and severe temperature-pressure cyclic service conditions. This wedge features a novel folded topology that makes it far more flexible than earlier flexible wedge designs of similar proportions, without weakening the wedge blades and detracting from its pressure-retaining function. Velan has supplied the valves to the Russian boiler manufacturer for use in the three 660 megawatt units at Barh.

HVOF Coating Case Study for Power Plant Process Control Ball Valve Applications

This is a case study of the failure of the coating on an on-off metal-seated ball valve (MSBV) used in supercritical steam lines in a power plant. The valves are exposed to rapid high-pressure and -temperature variations resulting in cracking and cohesive failure of the high velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) 80/20 Cr3C2-NiCr coating. It was found that carbide precipitation is a major factor causing embrittlement of the coating.
