12. Condition of application

(a) Valve operation : The valve should be operated and
controlled remotely. Open or close
within seconds and approximately
100 Cycles of On-Off operation in a day.
(b) Material of handling : The valve is used to handle gas with

fly ash at 14 Kg/cm.sq(g) operating
pressure and at 550 to 600 Deg.C operating
tempe rature. The gas contains
12 % CO 2; 16 % CO; 12 % H 2; 2 %
CH 4; 1 % O 2; 57 % N 2 and trace level
H2S. The valve is expected to handle
mainly fly ash of the following
Characteristic.
Page 1 to 4
Size distribution of ash:
+ 300 Micron - 9 to 11 %
+ 150 Micron - 16 to 6 %
+ 75 Micron - 25 to 8 %
- 75 Micron - 50 to 75 %
Bulk density of ash - 1300 Kg/cubic metre

Particle density of ash - 2600 Kg/cubic metre
Co-eff. of friction of ash - 0.6
The ash contains(approx) : 60 % Si0 2; 27 % Al 2 03; 8 % Fe 203;

5 % Oxides of CA & Mg and trace
level Alkalis.
13. Actuator : Suitable pneumatic double acting,

air to open and air to close and
air fail to stay put, remotely
controlled On-Off application. The
instrument air available is only
4 Kg/cm.sq.(g) (56 psi). It is
preferable to have indication of
on or off (open or close) positio n
locally stamped on the body. Higher
torque actuator (Double the torque
actuator) is required since fine ash
and high temperature will offer much
higher resistance during operation
of the valve. The size, the ty pe and
torque values are to be selected by
the valve manufacturer to ensure leak
tightness of the valve. Actuator
mounting as per ISO 5211
14. Limit Switch : Explosion proof, dust and water

proof type having DPDT with contact
rating of 125 V DC, 0.5 Amp. Honey
Well make 21CX 16 model or equivalent.
Junction box provided should also
Confirm to explosion dust and water
proofs.
15. Solenoid Valve : Suitable Asco Make (model AEB 342C3)

or equivalent with 3/8 pneumatic
tubing) flame proof for on -off
application. Solenoid valve rating is
110V plus or minus 10% and 50 HZ.
When the solenoid valve is
energized, the ball valve should open
and when de-energised the ball valve
should close. 100 cycles of on -off
operation per day is envisaged.

16. Certification : EN/DIN 50049 3.1 B material certificates
for body and bonnet. Tight ness Test
Certificates
17. Valve Testing : To be tested for body integrity and

seat tightness. The body test
pressure is to be 1.5 times PN.
The seat test pressure is to be
1.1 times PN. The test medium
will be both air and inhibited water.
18. Seat Test : As per MSS SP 72/ANSI/FCI 70-2 Class V
19. Inspection : By third party/BHEL Engineers
20. The offer should contain the fol lowing:
(a) The valve(s) with its accessories should be guaranteed for

trouble free operation for the period of 24 months from
the date of commissioning the valves at CCDP. The coating
on the ball should also be guaranteed for its wear and
adhesion to its surface with out damage to meet its function.
(b) Relevant test certificates (TCs) have to be enclosed for the

material of construction of valve body, stem, etc., and
pressure test certificate for the valve and explosion proof,
flame proof and dust proof certificates for accessories.
(c) Relevant catalogues viz., quick exhaust valve, actuator

type, limit switch, solenoid valve etc., may be provided for
approving at the time of submit ting the offer.
(d) Atleast 6 sets of O&M instruction manual after approval of

first copy shall be supplied.
(e) Dimensional & cross sectional drawing of the valve to be

submitted. General arrangement drawing of ball valve with
actuator mounting in position to be submitted.
(f) Ball coating, hardness, material selection, process used & coating
thickness to be provided. This is applicable for seat also.
(g) Dimensional clearance between ball & body seat to be provided

upon placement of order.
(h) Starting torque running torque & closing torque rating to be chosen
for the smooth operation of the valve during hot condition and
the value may be indicated for both valve and actuator separately
upon placement of order.
(i) Seller has to furnish their standard quality plan along with offer
(QP subjected to approval by buyer).
(j) Customer reference list highlighting with similar applications

suitable for the requirement specified above shall be furnished
along with offer.

(k) Spares: Cost of one no. of ball, Seat & Seal with Packings to be
Supplied along with the valves as spares. The cost of the above
Spares may be included in the offer separately.
(l) Valve marking symbols, abbreviations etc., shall be in accordance

with MSS-SP-25 or relevant standard. Vendors name, Valve rating,
material designation, nominal size, direction of flow etc., shall be
integral on the body. Each valve shall have a corrosion resistance
tag giving size, valve tag/code no. securely attached on the
valve body.
(m) Vendor to confirm compliance to all points of our specification.

Deviation shall be highlighted separately quoting the point number
of BHEL specification.
