What is a ball valve? Ball Valve is the quarter-turn valve of which the opening and closing member (ball) is driven by the valve stem and rotates around the axis of the ball valve. What are the ball valve types? In terms of valve structure, we have floating ball valve and trunnion-mounted ball valve. The ball inside the floating ball valve is free to float. In contrast, the trunnion ball is fixed ...

In terms of valve structure, we could divide ball valve into floating ball valve and trunnion-mounted ball valve. The working principle for floating ball valve: The ball inside the valve body is floating, since it does not have lower stem to fix and support the ball. Under medium pressure, the medium pushes the ball, and the ball can generate a certain displacement and press on the sealing surface...

Sealing is to prevent leakage, so the principle of valve sealing is also studied from leak prevention. There are two main factors that cause leakage. One is the most important factor affecting the sealing performance, that is, there is a gap between the sealing pairs, and the other is the pressure difference between the two sides of the sealing pair. The principle of valve sealing is also analyzed...

The knife gate valve has a shearing function, which can scrape off the adhesive medium on the sealing surface and automatically remove debris. The stainless steel gate valve can prevent sealing leakage caused by corrosion. The knife gate valve is suitable for coal, slag discharge, urban sewage treatment, food, paper, medicine, petroleum, chemical and other oil, water, steam pipeline...

Most of ball valves own the sealant injection system. In this article, we will explain why ball valve is installed with sealant injection fittings. Generally speaking, each ball valve has two sealant injection fittings. One is located at the stem area and the other seat area, like the picture shown below. The sealant injection system of ball valve plays a part as the emergency sealing or backup se...
