Goggle Valve Industries & Applications

Goggle valves are frequently found in the Petrochemical, Steel, Pulp and Paper, Maritime and Oil & Refinery industries.

Applications

Positive pipeline close/off is vital in many piping systems to assure safety of personnel working on downstream equipment, particularly when flammable, toxic liquids or gases could seep past a closure. A Goggle valve is mandatory to comply with certain plant safety regulations when visible proof of shut/off is necessary.

The valve will render an absolute tight shut-off in blast furnace, basic oxygen, open hearth or other gas mains applications. It is designed for vertical operation in a horizontal main – or with roller support and other adaptations for horizontal operation in a vertical main.
