Welcome to Big Horn Valve

Big Horn Valve's Stemless technology fills a significant industry need for fluid control that does not leak vapors into the environment. In industries where toxic or hazardous fluids are involved our stemless valve technology is vastly superior to traditional valve designs. Unlike traditional valve designs which frequently fail - leading to hazardous, environmentally dangerous and/or toxic emissions - our valve is emission-free and is the Best Available Valve Technology to keep our environment green and clean.

The High-Pressure, High Torque MagBall™ Valve has a body that can withstand 2500 psi. and in the 2 inch size is capable of providing torques up to 5000 inch-lbs. to open and close the valve under the harshest conditions. This torque capability is equal to or greater than any stemmed valve.

Big Horn Valve has been backed by the National Science Foundation, NASA and major aeronautical companies and was recognized for it's cryogenic NO EMISSION VALVE by NASA in SPINOFF Magazine. Big Horn Valve has been awarded a series of Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) contracts offered by NASA to explore and develop a cryogenic valve that with superior performance characteristics to existing technologies. In development for 9 years our stemless valve is poised to revolutionize the valve industry. .

THE WORLD LEADER in "STEMLESS" VALVE TECHNOLOGY:

  • Zero fugitive emissions
  • 100% flow efficient
  • StemLess configuration (No dynamic seal flow path to external environment)
  • Variable Cv flow curve capable
  • Seals: Standard ball valve seals technology
  • Micro turning torque - high or low pressures-operator friendly
  • Ideal for lethal valve service
  • Cost effective emission free valve technology
  • No stems-no stem maintenence-no emission sniffing
  • Magnetically actuated -strong positive- precision throttling capabilities
  • Reduces hazard to operators

Big Horn Valve announces the releases 2" and 3" MagBall™ valves
Big Horn Valve commercial installations are scheduled for the 4th quarter of 2011 and first Qtr. 2012.

emission free - no leak valve

The MagBall™ Stemless Valve features:

  • StemLess design that is 100%  emission free.
  • The MagBall™ is a ball valve with all the user friendly features.  Standard ¼ turn; Standard ball valve seals to your specifications; full ball valve flow
  • The magnetic drive or actuation is easy turning (no valve stem torque to overcome), firm and positive.
  • The MagBall™ eliminates stem packing/mechanical seals and all the associated maintenance

 


PETROCHEMICAL VALVE
Innovation and Safety For the Petrochemical and other Hazardous Industries
Big Horn Valve's Stemless technology Valve provides a StemLess design that is 100%  emission free. Our zero-emission valve technology fills a significant industry need for fluid control that does not leak vapors into the environment. Traditional valve designs are prone to external leakage.


CRYOGENIC VALVE
Cryogenic Applications Demand Precision and Reliability Big Horn Valve Delivers!

  • NASA has recognized the value of Stemless technology with its recent grants to Big Horn Valve.
  • Big Horn Valve's Stemless technology allows for safe, precision controlled fluid control without leaking vapors. This unique multi-composite design extends the life of the seal at extreme temperatures while providing exceptional positive seal closure.
  • This design extends the life of the seal almost indefinitely, providing ease of operation - even at pressures and extreme temperatures - while providing exceptional positive seal closure.
  • These Big Horn Valves are thermally isolated closure valves that can be used to prevent a contained fluid from freezing and bursting tanks or pipes.
  • Most common valves have metal actuation stems that conduct freezing temperatures, a recurrent design flaw in most valves. Imagine the expanded capabilities these freeze-proof industrial valves can add to both our agricultural resources and our industrial output.
  • Industrial Valves That Cannot Freeze are a Major Boon For Tank Storage And Cold Weather Operations.
