The application of the Delsway ball valve

Ball valves typically use materials like rubber, nylon, and Teflon for the seat seal, which limits their operating temperature range. The sealing function of a ball valve is achieved when the metal ball is pressed against the plastic seat by the pressure of the medium (in the case of floating ball valves). Under a certain contact pressure, the seat seal undergoes localized elastic deformation, which helps compensate for minor manufacturing tolerances and surface irregularities on the ball, ensuring a reliable seal. Because the seat material is usually made of plastic, fire resistance and fire safety are important considerations in the design and application of ball valves, especially in industries such as petroleum, chemical, and metallurgy, where flammable and explosive media are common. In such environments, it's crucial to select ball valves that can withstand high temperatures and prevent leakage during fire incidents. Ball valves are ideal for systems requiring two-position control, tight sealing, and minimal leakage into the atmosphere. They offer quick operation (1/4 turn), high-pressure cutoff capabilities, low noise, and resistance to cavitation and vaporization. Their low operating torque and minimal fluid resistance make them suitable for various applications, including pipelines with small flow rates. They are also well-suited for low-pressure systems, corrosive media, and low-temperature environments. In oxygen piping systems within the metallurgical industry, ball valves must be thoroughly degreased to avoid contamination. For underground oil and gas pipelines, full-bore welded ball valves are often required. When precise flow control is needed, V-port ball valves are recommended. In high-temperature applications above 200°C, metal-to-metal sealed ball valves are commonly used. For industrial piping systems, options like high-performance butterfly valves, high-performance ball valves, and hard-seated butterfly valves may also be considered based on specific requirements.
