 CRYOGENIC BALL VALVES

Introduction
Cryogenic ball valve is one of the most important equipment used for transportation of the gas in pipe line system. This cryogenic valve is
usually used in the places where is necessary quick opening and closing of the valve, full bore or low pressure drop. This type of cryogenic ball
valves is considered as shut off valve without possibility of usage as throttling or regulating valves.

Cryogenic ball valves are used to the transportation of the wide range of industrial gases such as oxygen, LNG, krypton, argon and nitrogen.
We can find their application in separation of air, storage, distribution or transportation of LNG, in aviation industry, in petrochemical industry
and medicine.
