Product Spotlights
As a professional manufacturer with ISO9001 certification, Shanghai Zhibang Valve Manufacture Co., Ltd. specializes in providing reliable fluid control solutions for the global maritime and industrial sectors. Established in 2016 and exporting to key markets worldwide, we understand the critical demands of marine applications. Our Three-Piece CB/T3191 Marine Ball Valve is engineered specifically for fuel oil service, offering robust performance, enhanced safety with its blow-proof stem and anti-static device, and exceptional durability for DN15 to DN150 pipelines.
This valve is designed to meet the stringent requirements of shipboard fuel systems, where reliability and safety are non-negotiable. The three-piece design allows for easy maintenance and inspection without removing the valve body from the pipeline, significantly reducing downtime and operational costs.
Core Product Features & Technical Advantages:
- Superior Safety Design: Incorporates a blow-proof stem to prevent stem ejection under high pressure and an anti-static device to safely dissipate static electricity generated by fluid flow, mitigating fire and explosion risks in fuel oil handling.
- Robust Construction & Materials: Manufactured from high-grade materials suitable for marine environments, ensuring excellent resistance to corrosion, erosion, and the specific chemical properties of marine fuels.
- Excellent Sealing Performance: Utilizes advanced seat materials (like PTFE or metal) that provide a bubble-tight seal, ensuring zero leakage and reliable shut-off even after prolonged use.
- Easy Operation & Maintenance: The three-piece body structure facilitates quick disassembly for seat replacement, cleaning, or maintenance without disturbing the pipeline connections, ideal for space-constrained engine rooms.
- Versatile Configuration: Available in a wide size range from DN15 to DN150, with options for threaded or flanged ends, and can be fitted with manual levers, gear operators, or automated actuators (pneumatic/hydraulic) based on operational needs.
- Compliance with Marine Standards: Designed and manufactured in accordance with the CB/T3191 standard, ensuring compatibility and reliability for Chinese shipbuilding and international marine applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the primary advantage of the three-piece design over one-piece or two-piece ball valves?
A: The three-piece design allows the valve body to be separated from the end connections without removing the entire valve from the pipeline. This enables much easier internal inspection, seat replacement, and cleaning, drastically reducing maintenance time and cost. -
Q: How does the anti-static device function, and why is it important for fuel oil service?
A: The device provides a conductive path between the ball/stem and the valve body, safely grounding any static electricity generated by high-velocity fuel flow. This prevents sparking, which is a critical safety measure to avoid igniting flammable vapors. -
Q: Can this valve be used with media other than fuel oil?
A: While specifically optimized for fuel oil, it can be suitable for other non-aggressive liquids, gases, or vapors within its specified pressure and temperature ratings. The seat and seal material selection should be verified for chemical compatibility with the specific medium. -
Q: What does "blow-proof stem" mean, and what problem does it solve?
A: A blow-proof stem design incorporates mechanical features (like a shoulder or enlarged diameter section) that prevent the stem from being forcibly ejected from the valve body if the internal packing or seals fail under high line pressure. This is a vital safety feature to contain pressure and protect personnel. -
Q: Are these valves available with actuators for remote operation?
A: Yes. We offer options for fitting pneumatic (air), hydraulic, or electric actuators. The valve design includes a standardized mounting pad compatible with major actuator brands, allowing for automated control integration. -
Q: Do you provide fire-safe certified versions of this valve?
A: Fire-safe design is an available option. These versions utilize metal secondary seals and are constructed to maintain sealing integrity for a specified duration under fire conditions, typically tested to standards like API 607 or API 6FA. -
Q: What is the typical lead time for orders, and what are the packaging details?
A: Lead times vary based on order quantity and specification complexity. Standard configurations are often available from stock or have shorter production cycles. Valves are packaged in individual cartons or wooden cases, with protective coatings and sealing to prevent corrosion during sea shipment. -
Q: How does the CB/T3191 standard relate to other international standards like ANSI/API or DIN?
A: CB/T3191 is a Chinese national standard for marine valves. It specifies requirements for design, materials, testing, and marking. While it is a distinct standard, its performance requirements for dimensions, pressure ratings, and testing often align with or are comparable to international norms, ensuring global applicability.
