Does the hydraulic Valves Factory introduce what is a ball valve?

1. The ball valve is a valve that uses a ball with a circular channel as the opening and closing part, and the ball rotates with the valve stem to realize the opening and closing action. The opening and closing part of the ball valve is a ball with a hole, which rotates around the axis perpendicular to the channel, so as to achieve the purpose of opening and closing the channel. Ball valves are mainly used to open and close pipelines and equipment media.

2. The ball valve is evolved from the plug valve. It has the same 90-degree rotation lifting action, the difference is that the cock body is a sphere with a circular hole or channel through its axis. The ratio of the spherical surface to the channel opening should be such that when the ball rotates 90 degrees, all spherical surfaces should appear at the inlet and outlet, thereby truncating the flow. The ball valve can be closed tightly with only a 90-degree rotation operation and a small torque. The completely equal valve body cavity provides low resistance and a straight-through flow path for the medium.

3. It is generally considered that the ball valve is most suitable for direct opening and closing, but recent development has designed the ball valve to have the function of throttling and controlling the flow. The main feature of the ball valve is its compact structure, easy operation, and maintenance, suitable for general working media such as water, solvent, acid, and natural gas, and also suitable for media with harsh working conditions, such as oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, methane, and ethylene. The ball valve body can be integral or combined.
