Ductile Iron Marine Gate Valve CB/T3591 Compliant, Flanged Connection, PN10/PN16 Pressure Rating
Product Spotlights
As a leading valve manufacturer, Shanghai Zhibang Valve Manufacture Co., Ltd. specializes in providing robust and reliable fluid control solutions for demanding marine applications. Our Ductile Iron Marine Gate Valve, engineered in strict compliance with the CB/T3591 standard, is designed to deliver exceptional performance, durability, and safety in shipbuilding and offshore systems. With a flanged connection for secure installation and pressure ratings of PN10/PN16, this valve is a trusted component for critical seawater, ballast, fuel, and general service lines.
Core Product Features & Technical Advantages:
- Superior Material Construction: The valve body and bonnet are crafted from high-grade ductile iron, offering an excellent balance of strength, toughness, and corrosion resistance, significantly outperforming standard cast iron in impact and pressure resistance.
- Standard-Compliant Design: Manufactured to meet the CB/T3591 standard for marine valves, ensuring compatibility with marine system specifications and enhancing acceptance in shipbuilding projects.
- Reliable Sealing System: Features a precision-machined wedge gate and seat (available in bronze or stainless steel) for bubble-tight shut-off. The stem packing, typically graphite or PTFE, ensures minimal fugitive emissions and long service life.
- Robust Flanged Connection: The flanged ends conform to common standards like GB, ANSI, or JIS (specify upon request), facilitating easy, bolt-on installation and creating a rigid, leak-free connection to the pipeline.
- Versatile Pressure Handling: Rated for PN10 (10 bar) and PN16 (16 bar) working pressures, making it suitable for a wide range of low to medium-pressure marine services.
- Multiple Operation Options: Standard handwheel operation provides direct and easy control. For larger valve sizes or higher torque requirements, a gear operation box is available as an optional upgrade.
Detailed Specifications & Benefits:
The following table outlines key parameters that underscore the valve's capability and design integrity:

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
-
Q: What is the main advantage of ductile iron over cast iron for this marine valve?
A: Ductile iron offers superior tensile strength and impact resistance compared to cast iron. It is less brittle, making it more suitable for the dynamic and sometimes harsh environments encountered in marine applications, thereby extending the valve's service life. -
Q: Can this valve be used for seawater service?
A: Yes, when configured with appropriate seat materials like stainless steel, this valve is well-suited for seawater, ballast, and other corrosive marine media. The ductile iron body also provides good corrosion resistance. -
Q: Are the flanges drilled according to a specific standard?
A: Yes. The flanges are typically drilled to common standards such as GB, ANSI, or JIS. It is crucial to specify your required flange standard and facing (RF, FF) when placing an order to ensure compatibility with your existing piping. -
Q: What is the temperature range for this PN10/PN16 valve?
A: The standard temperature range is typically from -20°C to 120°C for the specified pressure ratings. For applications outside this range, please consult our technical team for material and design validation. -
Q: Is the gear operation unit included, or is it an extra?
A: The gear operation box is an optional feature, usually recommended for valves with larger diameters (e.g., DN300 and above) or for applications requiring easier operation. It is available upon request at an additional cost. -
Q: Do you provide certification for the CB/T3591 compliance?
A: As a manufacturer, we design and produce the valve to meet the CB/T3591 standard. Relevant test reports or manufacturer's declarations can be provided to support compliance claims for your project documentation. -
Q: What is your typical lead time for this product?
A: Lead times vary based on order quantity, size, and configuration. Standard sizes are often available from stock or have shorter production cycles. We provide specific lead time quotes upon receipt of your detailed inquiry. -
Q: How do you ensure quality control?
A: Our ISO9001 certification underpins a systematic quality control process. This includes material inspection, in-process checks during machining and assembly, and final performance tests (such as shell and seat pressure tests) before shipment.
