About NAF – Duball DL Ball Valve
High-Performance Full-Bore Isolation and Control
The NAF-Duball DL is a full-bore, metal or soft-seated ball valve engineered for isolation, on/off and modulating control in demanding industrial services. Its split-body construction, spring-loaded stem packing, and bidirectional sealing deliver reliable shut-off and stable operation, even with difficult media and high differential pressures. A blowout-proof stem, rigid seat designs, and a robust torque path ensure consistent performance, while the off-centre body joint enables fast seat and ball replacement without removing the actuator. With direct mounting of the NAF-Turnex actuator and full integration with the NAF-D30 intelligent positioner, the Duball DL provides a compact, vibration-resistant valve package suitable for severe service across chemical, pulp & paper, mining, petrochemical and power applications.
For technicians, engineers and production managers, this means:
- Reliable long-term sealing – Spring-loaded stem packing provides stable, maintenance-free operation in automated and control services.
- Consistent shut-off under demanding process conditions – Floating ball design delivers bidirectional tightness, even with challenging media.
- Reduced downtime during shutdowns – The off-centre body joint allows seat and ball replacement without removing the actuator, simplifying maintenance.
- Stable torque transmission – Blowout-proof stem with long foot minimises backlash, ensuring predictable operation and accurate control.
- Flexible trim and material options – Reinforced PTFE seats, Alloy 6 metal seats, sealed or scraper designs, and high-temperature variants address a wide range of duties.
- Optimised for automation and control loops – Direct mounting of NAF-Turnex actuators and optional NAF-D30 positioners creates a compact, vibration-resistant valve package.
- Improved process stability in high-energy applications – Optional Z-trim reduces cavitation and noise, protecting downstream equipment.
