What is a GROVE B5 Ball Valve?

Cameron GROVE side-entry ball valves are manufactured in a wide range of diameters and pressure classes. The valves are specified for transmission pipelines, pumping, compression, and reinjection units, offshore platforms, onshore terminals, pig traps, measuring stations, and surge-relief skids. Split-body construction allows the use of forged materials in various grades of carbon steel, stainless steel, and high alloys, thus complying with the most severe service conditions.

The B5 valve is constructed of forged components bolted together in a side-entry design. The standard designs are ideal for transmission and standard production operations. This design also allows for specialty configurations required in applications such as subsea installation and LNG plants.
