Classification characteristics of ball valves
Oct 20, 2023| Ball valves are divided into: floating ball valve, fixed ball valve, track ball valve, V-shaped ball valve, three-way ball valve, stainless steel ball valve, cast steel ball valve, forged steel ball valve, ash unloading ball valve, sulfur resistant ball valve, pneumatic ball valve, electric ball valve, sleeve ball valve, and welding ball valve.
According to the classification of shell/main material, ball valves can be divided into:
1. Metal material valves: such as carbon steel valves, alloy steel valves, stainless steel valves, cast iron valves, titanium alloy valves, Monel valves, copper alloy valves, aluminum alloy valves, lead alloy valves, etc.
2. Metal valve body lined valves: such as rubber lined valves, fluorine lined valves, lead lined valves, plastic lined valves, and enamel lined valves.
3. Non metallic material valves: such as ceramic valves, glass valves, and plastic valves.
There are many domestic manufacturers producing ball valves, and the connection dimensions are mostly not uniform. Mainly divided into the following categories:
The ball of a ball valve is floating, and under the action of medium pressure, the ball can generate a certain displacement and tightly press on the sealing surface of the outlet end, ensuring the sealing of the outlet end.
