EN 12266-1 Stainless Steel Ball Valve
This standard specifies methods for pressure testing of valves, including airtightness and pressure resistance testing of stainless steel ball valves. Ball valves complying with this standard are able to operate under extreme conditions, providing good sealing and pressure resistance.
Chinese Standard (GB/T Standard)
GB/T 12237 Stainless Steel Ball Valve
Chinese standard GB/T 12237 covers the design, manufacturing and testing requirements for ball valves, especially in terms of valve size, connection methods and sealing performance. Most of the stainless steel ball valves on the Chinese market need to follow this standard.
GB/T 13927 Stainless Steel Ball Valve
This standard for pressure testing of valves also covers ball valves. It includes pressure test, air tightness test, etc. It ensures that ball valves can withstand pressure changes in the working environment to avoid leakage and failure.
GB/T 9113 Stainless Steel Ball Valve
This standard for flange connection valves, ball valves as a common flange connection valves, must comply with the requirements of the standard to ensure the stability of the connection and sealing.
