Speaking of ball valves, this is one of the valves that are used in many industries, but do you know that floating ball valves have different characteristics and have their own advantages when used. Then, what is the use of floating ball valves? What are the benefits? Let me give you a brief introduction.
1. The flow resistance of the ball valves of various valves is the smallest, and after the entire valve is opened, the diameter of the entire channel is the same as that of the pipeline, so the medium will flow very smoothly without any resistance. Especially the floating ball valve can be completely closed by rotating 90°, which can be said to be very convenient and quick to switch.
2. Compared with other valves, the floating ball valve has the characteristics of light weight, small volume, and convenient installation of various pipelines. At the same time, it is convenient to install and has good airtightness. There is almost no leakage of medium during use, especially when conveying gas. At the same time, the floating ball valve has a very good throttling effect on gas.
Third, the floating ball valve contains a locking device, which can ensure that the impact of misoperation on the valve switch is reduced during operation. That is to say, the floating ball valve has a locking hole in the valve fully open and fully closed position, so as not to cause random touch. Valve switch.
Fourth, the valve stem of the floating ball valve has an anti-flying structure, and the valve stem is generally bottom-mounted, which can effectively prevent the valve from flying out under pressure. Moreover, this structure is made of metal, which can ensure the valve stem seal regardless of fire or high temperature operation.
The above are the advantages of using floating ball valves. The industry generally believes that this is a relatively good valve, which is often used in pipeline transportation and has a long life.
