Valves for Nuclear Power Plants — Darwin

Darwin is the onshore processing hub for two major LNG projects on Australia's northern coast: Darwin LNG (ConocoPhillips / Santos, Bayu-Undan field, Wickham Point terminal — 3.7 MTPA liquefaction) and the INPEX-operated Ichthys LNG project (8.9 MTPA — the largest LNG project ever built in Australia, processing Ichthys field gas and condensate from the Browse Basin at the Middle Arm industrial precinct); both require cryogenic-rated A352 LCC ball valves, API 6D subsea-rated ESD valves, ASME B16.34 Class 600–1500 gate and globe valves, safety relief valves (API 526), and alloy check valves to AS 4041 and API standards; Darwin's Middle Arm Sustainable Development Precinct is being developed as a future hydrogen export, ammonia, and battery minerals processing hub; Vajra Industrial Solutions supplies Darwin-based INPEX, ConocoPhillips, and EPC contractor procurement teams with AS 4041, API 6D, and ISO 9001 compliant cryogenic and process valve packages.

Critical Valve Requirements

ASME Section III Class 2/3 design: complete material traceability (Certified Material Test Reports — CMTRs) for all pressure-boundary components
N-stamp or NA-stamp: third-party ASME Nuclear Inspector oversight for Class 2 and above
Seismic qualification per IEEE 344 — valves on safety-related systems must withstand Operating Basis Earthquake (OBE) and Safe Shutdown Earthquake (SSE)
Motor-operated valves (MOVs) qualified per IEEE 382 — torque, voltage variation, and harsh-environment performance testing
QA programme per 10 CFR 50 Appendix B (USA) or AERB Safety Guide (India) — design control, procurement document control, inspection, and test records
No substitution of materials without NCR (Non-Conformance Report) and AERB/NRC approval — traceability is mandatory

Express dispatch available for urgent site requirements. Contact us at +91-9979774557 or sales@vajravyuh.com with your specification and required delivery date.
What is ASME Section III and why does nuclear require it?
ASME Section III is the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code for Nuclear Facility Components. Unlike ASME B16.34 (industrial valves), Section III imposes full design analysis, material traceability to mill certificates (CMTRs), N-stamp third-party oversight during manufacturing, and complete quality records. Class 1 covers the primary pressure boundary (reactor coolant), Class 2 covers safety-related secondary systems (ECCS, spent fuel cooling), and Class 3 covers other safety-related systems (service water). Vajra supplies Class 2 and 3 components for balance-of-plant applications.
What is the difference between nuclear Class 2 and Class 3 valves?
ASME Section III Class 2 applies to systems that could affect the safety function of the reactor coolant boundary — e.g., emergency core cooling, spent fuel pool cooling. Class 3 applies to systems important to safety but with a lower direct interface — service water, fire protection, component cooling water. Class 2 requires more rigorous design documentation, full material traceability, and N-stamp inspection. Class 3 has slightly relaxed requirements but still demands CMTRs and a documented QA programme.
