MECHANICAL BALL VALVE

MAIN CHARACTERISTICS

The ball valve is the most common and used fluid interception device in hydraulic piping. Its operation is based on a 90 degree rotation of a spherical block fitted with cylindrical hole coaxial with the flow. The valve allows the passage or the total blocking of the flow and in some cases even its regulation. A total passage ball valve, i.e., where the passage diameter equal to the internal diameter of upstream and downstream pipe, has a small capacity loss equal to that of the pipe (if the valve is completely open).
