CS Valve in DSS Pipe
CS Valve in DSS Pipe
(OP)
Our client has a 24 inch Carbon Steel Line with a valve of line size. This line comes from a 32 inch header line of Carbon Steel.
Due to flow rate, 24 inch line is experiencing erosion problem. Also the downstream line is DSS so we plan to replace the 24 inch CS line with DSS.
Can we still use 24 inch CS valve in new 24inch line with DSS. Valve doesn't show any problem ?

Isolating it is the right way to go.
My hunch is that the valve metallurgy is different from the piping.
Even though both at CS, the valve may have enough alloying to help minimize erosion damage.

I believe you both support our plan with only thing is to avoid any direct contact of CS and DSS.

Thanks

Maybe a bit higher alloy than the body, but it should be galvanicly similar.
