Gas systems without compromise: Overview of FADO ball valves

Safety in gas supply systems is an area where the quality of equipment is crucial. Each assembly must work flawlessly for decades, ensuring complete tightness and stability. Ball valves for gas from FADO are designed as a reliable solution for shutting off natural gas flow that combines engineering precision and durability.

This is a full bore valve that is not subject to repair according to safety standards, which minimizes the risk of incorrect interference with the system and provides the maximum level of protection.

Technical excellence and resource

FADO products are subject to strict quality control, which allows us to achieve high performance indicators that far exceed standard requirements:

• Shutter tightness class «A»: Guarantees complete absence of leaks in the closed state.

• The standard service life is 30 years: An investment in the reliability of utility networks for decades.

• High wear resistance: The minimum resource is 12,000 cycles, and the time between failures reaches 15,000 cycles.

• Resistance to pressure: The conditional pressure is up to 16 bar (at temperatures up to +40 °C).

• Temperature range: Uninterrupted operation in the range of -20 °C to +60 °C.

Design features for professionals

The reliability of FADO cranes is ensured by a well-thought-out choice of materials and design solutions:

1. Case materials: High-quality nickel-plated brass is used to protect the product from corrosion and external influences.

2. Sealing: The stuffing box seal is made of FPM (fluorocarbon rubber), which is particularly resistant to hydrocarbons and retains its elasticity throughout its service life.

3. Ergonomics and safety: The aluminum butterfly handle is equipped with special lugs. This makes it easy to carry out sealing, which is a mandatory requirement for many gas supply systems.

4. Installation: The male/female threaded connection and the available diameter range (1/2″ to 1″) allow the faucet to be integrated into most standard systems.
