Valve Performance Testing has been carried out on a Twinsafe trunnion Mount ball valve.

A number of end users required the valve to complete a Shell hot

oil test, but also complete an additional 200 cycles..

FIRESAFE TESTING

THEFUTURE

THEPAST

THEFUTURE

THEPAST Oliver Twinsafe valves can provide ‘Fire-Safe’ valves. We maintain an in house fire

test facility, which enables us to provide an independent certified fire test for ourcustomers if required.

The Fire Test Rig consists of 16 Gas burns, which encapsulate the whole valve in atemperature-controlled flame as required by the usual fire test specifications.

Fire tests can be carried out and certified to all the main fire test specifications such

as API 6FA & API 607 Rev 4. Additional fire testsaccording to unique customer specificationscan also be carried out upon request.

All fire-tested valves come complete with a fire testcertificate, which has been certified by an independentbody such as Lloyds or DNV etc.

Firesafe (FS)Fire tested to API 607 REV4, API 6FA, BS 6755 PT 2

DesignProducts comply with the relevant code requirements of API 6D, ASME Vllland ANSI B16.34.

Geared Handwheel OperationGenerally valves above 2" 1500 class are supplied with gear box operator.Double Block & Bleed valves fitted with two gear box operators aresupplied with one removable handwheel as standard. This allowsoperation of one isolate at a time, for safety. Please consult factory.

Valve MarkingMarking of ball valves to MSS-SP-25 and EN19 standards.

NACE (NA)As standard, the full range of Oliver Twinsafe Valves are compliant to NACEspecification MR-01-75 (latest revision) ‘Sulphide stress cracking resistantmetallic materials for oilfield equipment’.

TestingEach valve product is individually tested both hydrostatically andpneumatically as follows: Hydrostatic shell test to 1.5 x full rated pressure,and hydrostatic seat test to 1.1 full rated pressure, and a low pressure,pneumatic seat test to 80psig.

Certification and TraceabilityAll valves exhibit unique identification coding and material test certificatesto BS EN102043.1.B as well as lifetime factory history being available.

DevelopmentContinual development maintains the highest levels ofperformance and integrity for our Double Block Twinsafe valves.Oliver Twinsafe Valves maintains in-house performance and firetest facilities.

PaintingCarbon steel valves can be supplied with a range of externalcoatings for environmental protection. Please consult factory

TemperatureStandard temperature range is -30°C to 150°C in accordance withAPI6D and higher temperatures with metal seated valves, consultfactory for higher temperatures.

Explosive DecompressionExplosive decompression occurs when gas at high pressurepermeates into seal materials. When the gas pressure is reducedthe absorbed gas expands, which can cause the seals to swell andblister. Oliver Twinsafe Valves only use seal material within their‘twinsafe valve’ range that are resistant to explosivedecompression.

Pressure Equipment DirectiveValves conform to the European pressure equipment directive97/23/EC

Seat InjectionThis is an option, please specify full details to factory.

Spindle InjectionThis is available on 2" trunnion mount and above, please specify full details tofactory.

PaintingAny painting specifications or indeed plating specifications can be reviewed atthe time of enquiry.

Cavity ReliefAny undesirable build up of pressure in the ball cavity is relieved automaticallypast the ‘sprung’ seat design on trunnion mount ballsFor cavity relief of the vent cavity a PSV (Pressure Safety Valve) or external reliefvalve can be located either directly opposed to the vent port, or as part of the ventvalve (PSV is supplied by third party).

Vent ValveA vent connection in conjunction with a vent valve of either a ball type or needle valve type are available with various bore sizes of each, the vent connection may be flanged or threaded.
