BLV1 Series - Ball Valves

Product Type(s) : Ball Valves
Description :

Ball valves offer great economy and durability for a wide range of applications that do not require completely hygienic, cleanable-in-place (CIP) service. They are easy to install and maintain.

WHERE TO BUY

FEATURES

  • All stainless steel construction: forged body and ball
  • FDA approved materials including reinforced PTFE seats
  • Cavity filled to minimize residue build-up around ball and seat
  • Full port opening for unrestricted flow in the open position
  • High temperature and pressure ratings for demanding service applications
  • Maintenance-free pneumatic actuator with “Normally Closed”, “Normally Open” or “Double Acting” orientations
  • Standard ISO pattern mounting pad for easy retrofit from manual handle to pneumatic actuator
  • Three piece design with floating seals
  • Lockable manual handle option for added security
  • Available with the identical control unit options offered on other valve types to give common look, controls interface, and spare parts across a multi-valve system
Theory of Operation

What is a ball valve and how does a ball valve function?


Ball valves operate by opening to allow flow or closing to shut-off flow within a pipeline by way of a fitted ball inside the valve body with PTFE seats.  Through the floating position of the ball, in closed position a movement into the flow direction becomes possible providing for optimum sealing in the passage (2 and 3).

There are three ball valve designs:

  • Standard - with handle without feedback - ball movement performed manually with handle
  • With handle and bracket for feedback - ball movement performed manually with handle
  • Controlled by pneumatic actuator - actuate ball movement with air connection at (1) and reset by spring force
