What Media Are Sanitary Ball Valves Suitable For?
What media is Sanitary Ball Valve suitable for?
Sanitary ball valves are also suitable for pipeline systems with light structures, low pressure cutoff (small pressure difference), and corrosive media. Ball valves can also be used in low temperature (deep cold) devices and pipeline systems. In the oxygen pipeline system of the metallurgical industry, ball valves that have been strictly degreased must be used. When the main pipeline in the oil pipeline and gas pipeline needs to be buried underground, a full-bore welded ball valve must be used. When the regulating performance is required, a ball valve with a special structure with a V-shaped opening must be selected. In petroleum, petrochemical, chemical, electric power, and urban construction, metal-to-metal sealed ball valves can be selected for pipeline systems with operating temperatures above 200 degrees.
Sanitary ball valves can be closed tightly with only a 90-degree rotation and a very small torque. The completely equal inner cavity of the valve body
provides a very small resistance and straight-through flow channel for the medium. The ball valve is not only simple in structure and good in sealing performance, but also small in size, light in weight, low in material consumption, small in installation size, small in driving torque, easy to operate, easy to open and close quickly, easy to operate and maintain, suitable for general working media such as water, solvents, acids and natural gas, but also suitable for media with harsh working conditions such as oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, methane and ethylene. The ball valve body can be integral or modular.
