Hydrotest for the Nuclear Classified ASME Section III, Subsection NB valve at Babcock Valves

In a dedicated demonstration of precision and compliance, Babcock Valves are currently conducting the hydrotest for the Nuclear Classified ASME Section III, Subsection NB valve—an earlier highlight in their entries. This DN50 (2″) valve, conforming to ANSI Class 1500#, belongs to the Bellows Seal Y-Pattern Globe Valve category. Primed for integration with the SMB-00 Limitorque actuator, the inspection is conducted under the keen observation of technical staff from Cofrentes Nuclear Power Plant.

At Babcock Valves, the manufacturing prowess extends to gate and globe bellows seal valves, available in sizes ranging from 1/2″ to 24″ and ASME Class 150 to 2500. Distinguished by a bellows design that eliminates the risk of atmospheric leakage during compression or expansion, these valves find their niche in toxic or flammable piping systems, especially in chemical plants and safety-critical applications within nuclear plants.
