KSB SICCA Globe Valves — Overview

KSB manufactures three series of SICCA globe valves designed for both throttling and shut-off applications. Unlike gate valves which provide only on/off isolation, globe valves offer precise flow regulation thanks to their disc-and-seat geometry — making them the valve of choice for steam headers, feedwater systems, and process lines where flow control is critical.

As an authorized KSB dealer serving Pune, Ahmednagar and Beed, Johar Engineering supplies all three SICCA globe valve series — including the high-performance Y-pattern pressure seal design for power plant applications.

✓ Indian Boiler Regulations 1950 ✓ PED 2014/68/EU (Groups 1 & 2) ✓ Tested to API 598

KSB Globe Valve FAQs

What KSB globe valve models does Johar Engineering supply?

We supply three KSB SICCA globe valve series: SICCA 150-600 GLC (cast steel, bolted bonnet, BS 1873, Class 150–600, NPS 2–10"), SICCA 900-2500 GLC (cast steel, pressure seal Y-pattern, ASME B16.34, Class 900–2500, NPS 2–8"), and SICCA 800-4500 GLF (forged steel, API 602/ASME B16.34, Class 800–4500, NPS ¼–2").

What is a Y-pattern globe valve and when should I use it?

A Y-pattern globe valve (SICCA 900-2500 GLC) has the stem angled at approximately 45° to the body, creating a more streamlined flow path than a straight-pattern design. This reduces pressure drop and turbulence, making Y-pattern valves ideal for high-pressure, high-temperature applications like main steam, feedwater, and extraction steam in power plants. The design also provides lower actuating torque.

What is the maximum pressure and temperature for KSB globe valves?

The forged SICCA 800-4500 GLF reaches up to Class 4500 (776 bar / 11,250 psi) and 816°C in stainless steel. The pressure seal GLC covers Class 900–2500 up to 650°C in C12A material. Carbon steel WCB operates up to 425°C, alloy steel WC6/WC9 up to 593°C.

Can KSB globe valves be used for throttling?

Yes. Globe valves are inherently suited for throttling and flow regulation. The SICCA 150-600 GLC is available with tapered disc or throttling plug variants. The pressure seal 900-2500 GLC features a rotating, self-aligning disc for reliable throttling. Globe valves are the preferred choice wherever precise flow control is needed.

Do KSB globe valves comply with Indian Boiler Regulations?

Yes. Both the SICCA 150-600 GLC and SICCA 900-2500 GLC (Standard Class) meet the Indian Boiler Regulations 1950. All three series comply with PED 2014/68/EU.

Can I download KSB globe valve datasheets?

Yes. We provide downloadable type series booklets for all three SICCA globe valve series with complete P/T ratings, materials, dimensions, and weights. Scroll up to the datasheets section.
