Description

Ball valves perform a quarter turn on/off or modulating function. A flow-controlling ball located within the body of the valve contains a hole through its center along one axis, which connects the inlet and outlet ports of the body. The ball itself is held in place by, and rotates 90º within, PTFE seats. These provide permanent lubrication and keep the valve "bubble-tight." They are backed by elastomeric cushions, which provide pressure against the ball and at the same time compensate for wear. Elastomer O-rings are used for stem and carrier seals to prevent leakage to the atmosphere. In the open position, the flow is straight through with minimal pressure drop as long as the porting through the ball is the same size as the inside diameter of the pipe.
