Flow control is an essential element in many industries. A device that plays a significant role in flow control is the ball valve. It is a mechanical component designed to allow or prevent the flow of liquid, gas, or steam through pipes and pipelines. In this article, we will explore ball valves, including their design, types, and applications. PVC ball valve feature a round closure unit that sits inside a spherical valve shell. The ball has a bore hole that aligns with the pipe opening and the flow direction. Turning the lever or handle a quarter turn rotates the ball, either allowing or obstructing media flow through the pipeline. Most…
