Ball valveThe benefits are as follows:
• Compared to other types of valves, ball valves produce low pressure drops because flow restrictions are minimal. In liquids, a high pressure drop on the valve may cause turbulence and cavitation. Cavitation occurs when the liquid pressure is below the critical pressure, forming the gas phase of the liquid. As the pressure returns, the bubble bursts, damaging the valve.
• Because it only takes a quarter turn to close or open completely, the ball valve immediately limits or allows flow. This advantage is important for controlling the level of the tank or reservoir.
• Rotary ball valves require little torque or small actuators.
• No lubrication is required due to the surface characteristics of the seat.
• Ball valves reduce the possibility of leaks because the ball is tightly sealed to the seat. The sealing effect is accomplished by fluid pressure.
• A variety of ball valve designs are available to meet specific applications. Some ball valve designs have functions such as pressure relief, variable flow control, diverting and mixing.
• Ball valves are relatively cheap.
Several restrictions must be kept in mind to maintain the function of the ball valve:
• Ball valves can be throttled, but for a long time. When the ball valve is in the throttling position, the seat is exposed to high speed fluid flow and greater pressure, which can cause corrosion. Therefore, throttling the application is not recommended. Standard ball valves can be used to throttle low pressure gas. Segmented ball valves can be used for limited throttling applications. However, advanced ball valves with improved designs or seats made of engineered materials suitable for throttling applications are commercially available.
• Application is limited by the maximum permissible operating temperature of the seat. For higher temperatures, metal or ceramic seats are available.
• Suspended particles may accumulate between the body and the ball, resulting in leakage, corrosion, and valve failure. Therefore, frequent maintenance of ball valves that handle slurries and suspensions is recommended.
