CB/T4480 Marine Bronze Electric Actuated Ball Valve DN50 PN16
Product Spotlights
Shanghai Zhibang Valve Manufacture Co., Ltd, established in 2016 with an annual export value of US$1–1.5 million, is proud to present the CB/T4480 Marine Bronze Electric Actuated Ball Valve DN50 PN16. As a professional manufacturer certified under ISO9001, we combine years of valve engineering expertise with a deep understanding of marine environments. This valve is designed to deliver reliable, corrosion-resistant flow control for demanding seawater, ballast, and cooling water systems on ships and offshore platforms. Its electric actuator ensures precise, remote operation, making it an ideal choice for modern marine automation.
The valve body is crafted from high-strength marine-grade bronze, offering excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion and biofouling. The electric actuator is compatible with standard 24V DC, 220V AC, or 380V AC power supplies, with optional feedback and positioner modules for integration into PLC systems. Each unit undergoes rigorous testing for pressure, leakage, and electrical continuity before shipment, ensuring compliance with CB/T4480 and international marine standards.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the working pressure of this valve?
A: The valve is rated PN16, which corresponds to a maximum working pressure of 16 bar (232 psi) at ambient temperature. For higher temperatures, please consult our technical team for derating factors. -
Q: Can this valve be used for seawater?
A: Yes, the marine bronze body is specifically designed for seawater applications. It offers excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion and is commonly used in ballast, cooling, and fire-fighting systems on ships. -
Q: What voltage options are available for the electric actuator?
A: Standard options include 24V DC, 110V AC, 220V AC, and 380V AC (50/60 Hz). Other voltages are available on request. The actuator can also be configured with a positioner for modulating control. -
Q: Is the valve suitable for outdoor installation on a ship deck?
A: The standard actuator has IP67 protection (dust-tight and temporary immersion), making it suitable for deck installation. For more severe conditions, IP68 protection is available as an option. -
Q: Does this valve comply with international marine standards?
A: The valve is manufactured according to the Chinese marine standard CB/T4480, which is widely accepted in shipbuilding. It also meets the general requirements of ISO 7121 and API 6D for ball valves. We can provide a certificate of compliance upon request. -
Q: What is the lead time for this valve?
A: For standard models (DN50 PN16, bronze, electric actuator), the lead time is typically 15–25 working days, depending on quantity. Customized orders may require additional time. -
Q: Do you offer a warranty?
A: Yes, we provide a 12-month warranty from the date of shipment against defects in materials and workmanship. Extended warranty options are available for an additional cost. -
Q: Can I get a sample or small quantity for testing?
A: Yes, we accept small orders and sample requests. Please contact our sales team to discuss the details and shipping arrangements.
