You can use ASTM A515 Gr 80 for valve body ; which is carbon steel boiler quality plate for high temperature services. Same shall have water cooled jacket.
For trims use Inconel which is suited for such high temperature services

Subject: [PipingDesign] High temperature butterfly valve

Which is be best material to built a 2000 mm diameter, butterfly valve?. The working conditions are:

Fluid:            Electric arc furnace combustion gas
Pressure:             -15" H20
Temperature:      Average 650 Centigrades, peak 900 Centigrades
Gas velocity      40 m/sec

Application:      Melt shop fume dedusting ductwork. The valve is used to
control the internal pressure in our Electric
                   arc furnace

We tried a valve made in A 316 but it failed (severe deformation in the body and melting in the seals of the electronic positioner after working only 4 weeks. Would you advice to use a water cooled valve built in ASTM A 106 schedule 160 pipe?

Any commet is welcome
