Industrial Ball Valve

Industrial Ball Valves are excellent in chemical applications, including the most challenging services (e.g. dry chlorine, hydrofluoric acid, oxygen). They are readily available in a wide variety of configurations, 3-piece, end entry and top entry, these valves range from commodity type valves to high performance valves. They are easy to operate, have standard face-to-face dimensions, high flow capacity, high pressure/temperature capabilities and ability to handle severe service chemicals. Advanced Features : The quarter turn operation is desirable to most operators and fairly easy to automate. The face-to-face dimensions comply with ASME, making the ball valve easy to retrofit and replace in line with most other ball valves and plug valves. They are designed in conformation to ASME with flange rating 150, 300, 600, 900 # or occasionally higher classes, enabling high performance ball valves to withstand up to 2250 PSI. The ball valve temperature which is primarily dependent on seats and seals may be rated as high as 550° F. Higher temperatures are permitted when using metal seats. Other Specifications : Ball valves, available in reduced port and full port designs are considered high recovery valves, meaning a low pressure drop and relatively high CV, [coefficient of flow (GPM per 1 PSI pressure drop). The benefits of these desirable flow parameters are reduced pump size and less system wear due to lower velocity. The ability to provide fire safe protection and handle severe service chemicals are two of the significant advantages of the ball valve. Sizes Available : 15mm RB to 600mm FB Range : The valves pressure rating ranges from 150# to 2500# with Screwed end, Flanged end or Butt weld end. They are also available with Lever operation, Gear operator, electrical actuator and Pneumatic actuator. Material used : Cast Iron, Carbon Steel, Stainless Steel, Duplex, Super Duplex, Monel, Hast alloy, etc
