TRUNNION BALL VALVE FOR HIGH PRESSURE, AND HYDROGEN STATION

摘要

A trunnion ball valve for high pressure and a hydrogen station are provided, which achieves low torque during operation, and whose durability is improved to maintain sealing ability for a long period of time. In a trunnion ball valve including a ball provided inside a body main unit in a freely rotatable manner; and a seal mechanism provided on positions on both sides of the ball so as to be in seal contact with the ball, the seal mechanism including: a seat retainer having a sealing surface that is to be in seal contact with a ball surface of the ball; a spring member provided for applying elastic force on the sealing surface side; and a sealing member provided on an outer surface of the seat retainer, at least both of the sealing surface and the ball surface has a coating layer of diamond-like carbon provided thereon, so as to exhibit sliding ability and sealing performance.
