Key Features:
-
Forged Construction: The valve body and key components are made from forged materials, such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel. Forging provides enhanced mechanical properties, including high strength, toughness, and resistance to impact and fatigue, making the valve suitable for demanding applications.
-
Floating Ball Design: The ball is not fixed in place and is free to move slightly within the valve body. When the valve is closed, the pressure of the fluid pushes the ball against the downstream seat, creating a tight seal. This design ensures reliable sealing and is particularly effective for low-to-moderate pressure applications.
-
Bi-directional Sealing: The valve provides effective sealing in both directions, ensuring leak-proof operation regardless of the flow direction.
Advantages:
-
High Strength and Durability: The forged construction provides excellent strength and durability, making the valve suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
-
Reliable Sealing: The floating ball design ensures tight sealing, preventing leakage and ensuring efficient operation.
-
Compact and Lightweight: The compact and lightweight design makes the valve easy to install and suitable for applications where space and weight are considerations.
