STAINLESS STEEL BALL VALVE

Product Description

We are the manufacturer of stainless steel ball valve which is a type of quarter-turn valve that uses a rotating ball with a bore to control the flow of fluids through a pipeline. Stainless steel is the material of choice for these valves due to its corrosion resistance, durability, and suitability for applications where hygiene and cleanliness are essential.

Here are key features and characteristics of stainless steel ball valves:

1. Material: Stainless steel provides corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for applications where the valve may come into contact with water, chemicals, or other corrosive fluids.

2. Quarter-Turn Operation: Ball valves operate on a quarter-turn mechanism, allowing for quick and easy control of flow by rotating a perforated or hollow ball within the valve body.

3. On/Off Control: Ball valves are commonly used for on/off applications, providing a tight seal when closed to prevent fluid leakage.

4. Full Bore or Reduced Bore: Ball valves are available in full bore and reduced bore designs. Full bore valves have an opening that is the same size as the pipeline, minimizing flow restriction. Reduced bore valves have a smaller opening, which may reduce flow rates but also reduces the overall size and weight of the valve.

5. Floating or Trunnion-Mounted Ball: Ball valves may have a floating ball or a trunnion-mounted ball. Floating ball valves rely on the pressure of the fluid to push the ball against the seat for a seal, while trunnion-mounted ball valves use a fixed pivot point for additional support.

6. Two-Way and Three-Way Options: Ball valves are available in two-way and three-way configurations. Two-way valves control the flow between two ports, while three-way valves control the flow among three ports.

7. High Pressure and Temperature Applications: Stainless steel ball valves are suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications, depending on the specific design and construction of the valve.

8. Fire-Safe Design: Some stainless steel ball valves are designed to meet fire-safe standards, ensuring reliable operation even in the presence of fire.

9. Actuation Options: Ball valves can be manually operated using a handle or lever, or they can be automated with pneumatic or electric actuators for remote control.

10. Various End Connections: Stainless steel ball valves come with various end connections, including threaded, flanged, and welded options, allowing for flexibility in system integration.

11. Corrosion Resistance and Cleanability: Stainless steel provides excellent resistance to corrosion and is easy to clean, making it suitable for applications in the food and beverage industry, chemical processing, and other industries where cleanliness is crucial.
