Cleaning, Assembly and Testing
All the cryogenic ball valves are assembled and 100% tested in the clean atmosphere, firstly at room temperature according to API 598 and then at -196°C to conform BS6364.

After testing, the valves must be totally cleaned, dried and visually inspected.

Then, the valve ends are sealed by using polythene bag and the valves are well packed for delivery.
