Introduction
The continued development of the global energy market, especially in the oil, gas and chemical industries, has placed higher requirements on the quality, durability and reliability of valve products. As one of the core equipment, valves play a vital role in pipeline transportation, pressure regulation and fluid control. In order to ensure the safety and reliability of valves under extreme working conditions, the international market generally adopts the American Petroleum Institute (API) valve quality standards as the industry's technical specifications. API standards cover the design, manufacturing, testing and inspection requirements of valves and are an important standard for measuring valve quality.
CHNLGVF, a leading enterprise in China's valve industry, has long been committed to the R&D and manufacturing of various valve products. In the context of increasingly fierce competition in the global market, the company has continued to improve its manufacturing processes through in-depth research on API standards, and has successfully developed high-quality valve products that meet API standards. These products have not only achieved excellent results in the Chinese domestic market, but have also won high recognition in the European and American markets. This article will analyze the key contents of the API standard in detail and discuss how CHNLGVF improves product quality through technological innovation and process optimization, and ensures the competitive advantage of its products in the international market.
Key requirements of API valve quality standards
Overview of API standards
American Petroleum Institute (API)标准是全球公认的石油和天然气行业的技术规范,重点关注石化行业中的设备、阀门和管道系统。建立API标准的目的是确保阀门产品在高压、高温、腐蚀等恶劣工作条件下的安全性和稳定性。API标准涵盖了从材料选择、设计、制造到测试的整个过程,确保阀门产品在各种恶劣工作条件下表现出高性能和可靠性。
2.2 API标准阀门设计和制造要求
API standards impose strict requirements on all aspects of valves, including:
Material requirements: API standards put forward requirements for high strength, corrosion resistance and wear resistance for valve materials. Material selection is critical to the overall life and reliability of the valve, especially in the oil and gas industry where valves need to deal with corrosive media and extreme temperatures.
The design of the valve must ensure sealing and operating performance under high pressure and high temperature conditions. API standards stipulate the design specifications of valves, especially in terms of pressure levels, dimensional tolerances and fluid control, to ensure that the valves can work properly under various operating conditions.
Manufacturing process: API standards put forward detailed requirements for process control during the valve manufacturing process, especially during welding, processing and assembly. Precision and consistency must be ensured to avoid sealing failure or structural damage during use.
Testing and Inspection: API standards require comprehensive pressure testing and seal testing of valves to ensure product stability under extreme conditions. In addition, fire protection valves are also required to undergo fire testing to ensure their safety and reliability in fire environments.
2.3 Specific requirements for valve products according to API 600, API 598 and other standards: - Valve design and construction shall comply with API 600 specifications. - Valve testing and inspection shall adhere to API 598 standards. - Additional requirements from other relevant standards shall also be met.
API标准包含多个子标准,针对不同类型的阀门。以下是一些常见的API标准及其具体要求: API standards contain multiple sub-standards for different types of valves. The following are some common API standards and their specific requirements:
API 600: Mainly for steel gate valves, stipulating their design, manufacturing and testing requirements. API 600 valves are commonly used in high-pressure pipeline systems in the oil, gas, chemical and power industries, which require high strength and corrosion resistance.
The API 598 standard covers the testing and inspection requirements for all types of valves, especially pressure testing and sealing performance testing, to ensure that the valves meet high quality requirements during the production process.
API 6D: For ball valves, gate valves and check valves in transmission pipelines, API 6D pays special attention to the corrosion resistance and pressure resistance of the products, and is widely used in oil and natural gas transmission systems.

The R&D and manufacturing practices of CHNLGVF | China Daqian Valve
Improvements in material selection
Material selection is key to manufacturing high-quality valves. CHNLGVF introduces advanced material research technology and uses high-strength, corrosion-resistant alloy materials, especially special steel materials that perform well under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. These materials not only improve the durability of the valve, but also greatly reduce wear and corrosion in harsh environments, ensuring long-term stable operation of valve products.
Optimization of manufacturing process
The manufacturing process directly affects the sealing performance and service life of the valve. In order to meet the requirements of API standards, CHNLGVF丨中國大乾閥門 uses precision CNC equipment to process valves, and improves welding quality through automated welding technology to avoid inconsistencies in manual operations. The company has also improved the mechanical properties of valve parts by introducing advanced heat treatment processes, enabling it to maintain excellent sealing performance under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions.
Quality control and testing
CHNLGVF丨China Daqian Valve has established a complete quality control system, covering every link from raw material procurement to finished product delivery. All valve products must pass the pressure test and sealing performance test specified in API 598 before leaving the factory to ensure that each product meets the requirements of API standards. In addition, for specific application scenarios, the company also uses non-destructive testing technology (such as ultrasonic testing and X-ray testing) to ensure the integrity of the valve's internal structure.
