Ball Valve

A ball valve is a valve that controls the flow of fluid by rotating the ball. It is widely used in various fluid control systems. The core component of a ball valve is a spherical valve core with a hole on the ball. When the ball rotates, the direction of the hole determines whether the fluid can flow through the valve. The ball valve has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and has good sealing properties. It is suitable for various industrial fields, including petroleum, chemical, electricity, natural gas, water supply and other industries.

※ Basic Structure

Valve body: The main part of the valve, usually made of cast steel, stainless steel, copper or other alloy materials, which withstands fluid pressure and environmental conditions.
Ball: The core component of the ball valve, with a through hole to control the flow of fluid. The ball can be rotated 90° to adjust the flow of fluid by the direction of the hole.
Valve seat: Located between the ball and the valve body, used to ensure the seal between the ball and the valve body to prevent fluid leakage.
Valve stem: The component that connects the actuator (manual, pneumatic, electric) and the ball, used to transmit the action of opening or closing.
Sealing ring: Installed at the contact point between the valve body and the ball to ensure that there is no fluid leakage when the valve is closed.

※ Product Application
Oil and gas: used in oil and gas pipelines and storage systems to control the flow of oil and gas.
Chemical industry: used to control the flow of chemicals, solvents, acids and alkalis in the chemical production process.
Power industry: used to control the flow of fluids in steam pipes, cooling water pipes and other systems to ensure safe and stable operation of power plants.
Water treatment industry: used for fluid switch control in sewage treatment and water supply systems.
Food and pharmaceutical industry: used in fluid transportation, batching, filling and other links to ensure precise control of material flow.
HVAC: used to regulate water flow in air conditioning, heating and cooling water systems.

※ Product Advantage
Good sealing performance
The ball valve adopts metal or soft sealing design, which can provide good sealing performance and prevent fluid leakage.
Quick opening and closing
The ball valve usually only needs to rotate 90° to complete the opening or closing action, and the response is fast.
Small fluid resistance
The inner hole of the ball valve is smooth, and the resistance is small when the fluid passes through, which is suitable for large flow fluid control.
Resistant to high pressure and high temperature
The design of the ball valve can withstand high pressure and temperature, and is suitable for use in harsh environments.
Simple structure and easy operation
The ball valve has a simple structure, intuitive operation process, and relatively easy maintenance and installation.
Wide range of application
Applicable to various fluids, including water, oil, natural gas, chemicals, steam, etc.

※ FAQ

What are the installation requirements for control valves?
The valve should be installed at the appropriate position of the pipeline to ensure that the flow direction is consistent with the direction indicated by the valve body; secondly, check whether the valve and its accessories are intact before installation to ensure that there is no damage; during installation, ensure that the pipeline connection is stable to avoid stress concentration and prevent damage to the valve; in addition, sufficient space should be provided for the valve to facilitate adjustment, inspection and maintenance; finally, the valve should be protected from excessive vibration or temperature, especially under high pressure and high temperature environments.

What are the common applications of temperature and pressure reducers?
Temperature and pressure reducers are widely used in many fields. They are mainly used in steam systems to reduce high-pressure steam to appropriate pressure to ensure safe operation of equipment. They are commonly used in power, fertilizer, food processing and other industries. They are also used in oil and gas pipelines, chemical production, pharmaceutical plants, etc. to ensure stable pipeline pressure and avoid system overpressure or excessive temperature. In addition, reducers are also used in HVAC, metallurgy and other industries to adjust the temperature and pressure of the fluid in the system to ensure the smooth progress of the process.

How to maintain medium and high pressure valves?
When maintaining medium and high pressure valves, first check the wear of key components such as valve body, valve seat, sealing ring and valve stem regularly. Clean the valve to prevent impurities from blocking and affecting operation. Check the operating performance of the valve to ensure flexible opening and closing without sticking. Check the sealing to prevent leakage and replace the seals if necessary. For valves that operate at high pressure for a long time, it is recommended to perform functional tests regularly to ensure their reliability under high pressure environment. In addition, check the connection parts of the valve to avoid looseness or leakage caused by vibration or corrosion.
