How To Effectively Extend The Service Life Of High Platform Ball Valve
How to effectively extend the service life of Sanitary Ball Valve
The high-platform ball valve has a unique sealing mechanism that plays a vital role in the production of many industries. So in order to ensure better production, how can we improve its reliability?
The high-platform ball valve mainly includes a valve body, a valve stem, a ball and a sealing ring. The ball valve is sealed by close contact between the ball and the sealing ring. The ball is rotated to open and close the valve. It is usually used for fluid regulation and control. It is a highly reliable ball valve with high airtightness. Especially after the ball valve has been used for a long time, its sealing reliability is still high, which can effectively avoid fluid leakage caused by hardening or deformation of the sealing ring.
The sealing rings are two on the left and right, and are bonded to the valve seat of the valve body. The sealing rings include a buffer layer and a sealing layer. One side of the buffer layer is bonded to the valve seat, and the other side of the buffer layer is bonded to the sealing layer. By adhering a buffer layer between the sealing layer of the sealing ring and the valve seat, the sealing effect of the ball valve is effectively improved. When the ball valve is used for a long time and the sealing layer is deformed or hardened, the elastic ball in the buffer layer can still make the sealing layer of the sealing ring close to the ball after closing, thereby improving the reliability of the ball valve seal and extending the service life of the ball valve.
In order to extend the service life of the high platform ball valve, we use the ball valve correctly as one method, and we also need to maintain the ball valve more, so as to achieve better results. So what are the ways to extend the service life of the high platform ball valve?
The methods to extend the service life of the high platform ball valve are as follows:
1. The high platform ball valve must be carefully disassembled and reassembled to prevent damage to the sealing surface, especially in non-metallic parts. When removing the O-ring, tools should be used. The flange bolts must be assembled symmetrically and tightened gradually and evenly.
2. The metal parts that are still left clean with non-metallic parts can be scrubbed with fine wire cleaning agent.
3. The working medium of the ball valve is gas grease. Apply a thin layer of grease on the surface of the seal installation groove, a thin layer of grease is applied to the rubber seal, and a thin layer of grease is applied on the friction surface of the sealing surface and the valve stem.
