INOX BALL VALVE

Ball Valve:

This type of valves consists of a round cavity, it provides a full close position and usually used in petrochemicals industries.

The stainless steel flanged ball valve can be closed tightly with only a 90-degree rotation operation and a small torque. The completely equal valve body cavity provides a low resistance, straight-through flow path for the medium.
It is generally believed that ball valves are most suitable for direct opening and closing, but recent developments have designed ball valves so that they can be used for throttling and flow control.

The main feature of stainless steel flanged ball valve is its compact structure, easy operation and maintenance, suitable for general working medium such as water, solvent, acid and natural gas, but also suitable for medium with harsh working conditions, such as oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, methane and ethylene Wait. The ball valve body can be integral or combined. This type of valve should be installed in the horizontal direction of the pipeline.

WORKING THEORY
The working principle of the ball valve is to make the valve unblocked or blocked by rotating the valve. The ball valve switch is light, small in size, can be made into a large diameter, reliable sealing, simple structure, convenient maintenance, the sealing surface and the spherical surface are often closed, and are not easily eroded by the medium, and are widely used in various industries.

Stainless steel ball valve and plug valve are the same type of valve, only its closing part is a sphere, and the sphere rotates around the center line of the valve body to achieve opening and closing.

The ball valve is mainly used to cut off, distribute and change the flow direction of the medium in the pipeline. Ball valve is a new type of valve that has been widely used in recent years.

ADVANTAGES:
  1. The fluid resistance is small, and its resistance coefficient is equal to that of the pipe section of the same length.​​

  2. Simple structure, small size and light weight.​​

3. It is tight and reliable. At present, the sealing surface material of ball valve is widely used plastic, which has good sealing performance, and has also been widely used in vacuum system.​​

4. Easy to operate, quick to open and close, only need to rotate 90° from fully open to fully closed, which is convenient for long-distance control.​​

5. The maintenance is convenient, the ball valve has a simple structure, the sealing ring is generally movable, and it is more convenient to disassemble and replace.​​

6. When fully open or fully closed, the sealing surfaces of the ball and the valve seat are isolated from the medium, and when the medium passes through, the valve sealing surface will not be eroded.​​

7. It has a wide range of applications, with diameters ranging from small to several millimeters to several meters, and can be applied from high vacuum to high pressure.
