Flange ball valves are a type of quarter-turn valve with flanged ends, commonly used in pipelines to control the flow of liquids or gases. Here are the key features of flange ball valves:
1. Flanged Ends
Easy Installation & Removal: Flanges provide secure, bolt-on connections to pipelines.
Standardized Dimensions: Typically conform to ANSI, DIN, or JIS standards for compatibility.
2. Quarter-Turn Operation
Fast Operation: Only a 90° turn is needed to open or close the valve.
Simple Mechanism: Operated manually, with a lever or by actuators (electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic).
3. Spherical Ball Element
Full Bore or Reduced Bore Options: Allows for minimal pressure drop and efficient flow control.
Sealing: The ball is usually polished and seats are made from soft materials (e.g., PTFE) for tight shutoff.
4. Robust Construction
Material Variety: Available in stainless steel, carbon steel, brass, or other alloys.
High Durability: Suitable for high pressure and temperature applications.
5. Excellent Sealing Performance
Bubble-tight Shutoff: Ideal for gas and fluid isolation.
Leak-proof Design: Especially effective with proper seat materials and precision machining.
6. Corrosion and Chemical Resistance
Materials and Coatings: Can be selected for compatibility with aggressive or corrosive media.
7. Pressure and Temperature Ratings
Wide Operating Range: Suitable for a variety of industrial environments (e.g., oil & gas, chemical, water treatment).
8. Maintenance-Friendly
Easy Disassembly: Flanged ends and floating or trunnion-mounted designs facilitate maintenance and replacement.
