Fixed ball valves have the following significant characteristics, which make them widely advantageous in industrial applications:
1. Sturdy structure and strong pressure bearing capacity
Spherical fixed design: The spherical body is supported and fixed by upper and lower valve stems, without displacement due to medium pressure, ensuring structural stability under high pressure conditions.
High strength materials: Valve bodies and spheres are usually made of high-strength materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel, which can withstand pressures of hundreds of megapascals (MPa) and are suitable for high-pressure, large-diameter pipeline systems.
2. Excellent sealing performance
Bidirectional sealing: The sealing design of the fixed ball valve can achieve zero leakage in both directions, suitable for occasions with strict sealing requirements.
There are various sealing materials available: depending on the characteristics of the medium, metal hard seals (such as Stellite alloy) or high-performance soft seals (such as PTFE, PEEK) can be selected to ensure reliable sealing in high temperature, high pressure, or corrosive media.
Self compensation function: The floating valve seat can automatically compensate for wear under the action of medium pressure, extending the service life of the valve.
3. Small operating torque, effortless opening and closing
Low friction design: The ball and valve seat come out of contact at the moment of opening, reducing friction and lowering operating torque.
Flexible driving mode: supports multiple driving modes such as manual, electric, pneumatic, hydraulic, etc., suitable for automation control systems.
4. Wide applicability
Strong medium compatibility: capable of handling various fluids such as gases, liquids, vapors, corrosive media, etc., suitable for industries such as petroleum, chemical, natural gas, and power.
Wide temperature range: resistant to high temperatures (up to 500 ℃) and low temperatures (up to -196 ℃), meeting the requirements of extreme workin
