Description
A Flanged Stainless Steel Ball Valve is a type of valve that uses a rotating ball to control the flow of fluids in a pipeline. It features a stainless steel body, flanged connections, and a ball valve design. The primary function of a Flanged Stainless Steel Ball Valve is to regulate the flow of fluids by opening, closing, or throttling the valve. The valve’s ball rotates to align with the flow path, allowing fluids to flow through the valve, or rotates to block the flow path, shutting off the flow.
Characteristics
1. Stainless steel body: The valve’s body is made from stainless steel, providing excellent corrosion resistance and durability.
2. Flanged connections: The valve features flanged connections, making it easy to install and remove from pipelines.
3. Ball valve design: The valve’s ball valve design provides a high degree of flow control and shut-off.
4. Low maintenance: The valve requires minimal maintenance, as it has few moving parts and is easy to clean.
5. High flow rates: The valve’s ball valve design allows for high flow rates and minimal pressure drop.
Applications
1. Industrial processes: Flanged Stainless Steel Ball Valves are commonly used in industrial processes, including chemical processing, oil refining, and power generation.
2. Food and beverage processing: The valve is used in food and beverage processing applications, including dairy processing, brewery operations, and pharmaceutical processing.
3. Water treatment: The valve is used in water treatment applications, including wastewater treatment plants and desalination plants.
4. Marine applications: The valve is used in marine applications, including shipbuilding and offshore platforms.
Types
1. Standard Flanged Stainless Steel Ball Valve: The standard valve features a stainless steel body, flanged connections, and a ball valve design.
2. High-Pressure Flanged Stainless Steel Ball Valve: The high-pressure valve is designed for use in applications where high pressures are present.
3. Low-Temperature Flanged Stainless Steel Ball Valve: The low-temperature valve is designed for use in applications where low temperatures are present.
4. Customized Flanged Stainless Steel Ball Valve: The valve can be customized to meet specific application requirements, including specialized materials, sizes, and configurations.
