Revitalizing Critical Infrastructure: A Seamless Upgrade for Krakatau Chandra Energi

We are proud to announce the successful delivery and commissioning of a critical valve replacement project for PT. Krakatau Chandra Energi's Cooling Water System.

The Challenge: The existing system (utilizing aging KSB valves) was facing performance degradation due to long-term exposure to harsh operating conditions. The client required a solution that not only replaced the hardware but upgraded the system's reliability, safety, and longevity.

The Solution: XIAMEN GUTE VALVE MANUFACTURING COMPANY(www.gutevalve.com) engineered a bespoke solution that strictly adhered to the client's Technical Particular and Guarantee (TPG) requirements while offering improved lead times and build quality.

We delivered three high-performance units designed specifically for Sea Water applications:

- 1x DN1300 PN10 Hydraulic Control Butterfly Valve

Features: Equipped with a Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) and Counterweight.

Performance: Customized closing speeds (Fast: 4-8s / Slow: 15-35s) for pump protection and water hammer prevention.

Safety: Fail-safe functionality with accumulator backup.

- 1x DN1200 PN10 Tilting Disc/Butterfly Valve

Features: Fitted with a Counterweight & Hydraulic Dashpot (Damper).

Benefit: Smooth closing profile to minimize system shock.

- 1x DN700 PN10 Electric Butterfly Valve

Automation: Integrated with a high-performance AUMA electric actuator for precise DCS remote control.

Why Gute Valve? 

Material Excellence: - All wetted parts (Disc/Shaft) utilize Duplex Stainless Steel for superior corrosion resistance against sea water. - Precision Engineering: 100% compliance with EN-593 & EN-558 standards, ensuring a perfect drop-in fit for the existing pipeline. - Speed & Quality: We surpassed the original lead time expectations without compromising our rigorous testing standards.

A big thank you to our engineering team and partners for making this seamless transition possible!
