Recommending alloys and hardfacings capable of resisting erosion, corrosion, and thermal shock. Critical Refinery Applications Covered by API 553
Fired heaters are among the most expensive assets in a refinery. Proper valve selection prevents localized overheating and tube ruptures. 5. Implementation and Maintenance Best Practices
Guidance on choosing the right valve type (globe, ball, butterfly, etc.) based on the specific process service.
Preferred for slurry and solids-entrained lines due to their self-cleaning wiping action.
