Gate Valves Β· Wedge Gate Valves
Cryogenic Gate Valves
A cryogenic gate execution in austenitic stainless steel with PTFE soft seating: DN15 to DN50, PN16 to PN64 and Class 150 to 800, rated -80 C to +80 C for O2, N2, Ar and LNG service. It is the small-bore cold-box and industrial-gas isolation valve - full-bore wedge shutoff where a globe or ball execution is not the specified route.

Application & selection guidance
This is a small-diameter (DN15-DN50) cryogenic isolation execution; larger cryogenic lines need the wider gate family or dedicated cryogenic executions. Match the class rating (up to Class 800) to the system design pressure and verify that the -80 to +80 C window covers the actual gas and ambient duty, including warm-up transients.
Frequently asked questions
Which media is this execution rated for?
The page states O2, N2, Ar and LNG as applicable media between -80 and +80 C, with wetted parts in SS304/SS316/SS304L/SS316L, PTFE packing and a PTFE disc face ring.
What sizes and ratings are covered?
DN15 to DN50 at PN16/PN25/PN40/PN64 and Class 150/300/600/800, with a full NPS 1/2 to 2 dimension and weight table on the page.
Why a gate valve for cryogenic service?
Full-bore wedge shutoff avoids the tortuous flow path of globe executions and keeps pressure drop low on gas distribution; austenitic stainless bodies retain toughness at cryogenic temperature where carbon steel would embrittle.

Ordering & documentation
Documents
Ask for the documentation set you need with the inquiry β typical items for this execution (material certificates, test reports to the listed inspection standard, dimensional drawings) are confirmed and supplied with the quotation.
Quotation
A quotation-ready inquiry states: nominal size and pressure rating, body and seat material preference, end connection, operation, and the service medium with temperature. Typical values on this page are benchmark reference ranges; the binding values are confirmed at quotation.
Sample & supply
Supply terms, order quantities and lead time are agreed per order β state the destination country and required schedule with the inquiry.
Storage & shipping
Store valves with seats and seals protected from UV, ozone and deformation, keep end-face protectors on until installation, and for elastomer- or PTFE-seated executions avoid prolonged outdoor storage β seat compounds age fastest in direct sunlight and freezing conditions.
