In What Media Environments Are Stainless Steel Sanitary Ball Valves Suitable?

Sanitary Ball Valve is also suitable for pipeline systems with light structures, low pressure cutoff (small pressure difference), and corrosive media. Ball valves can also be used in low temperature (deep freezing) devices and pipeline systems. In the oxygen pipeline system of the metallurgical industry, ball valves that have been strictly degreased must be used. When the main pipeline in the oil pipeline and gas pipeline needs to be buried underground, a full-bore welded ball valve must be used. When the regulating performance is required, a quick-install ball valve with a V-shaped opening structure must be selected. In petroleum, petrochemical, chemical, electric power, and urban construction, metal-to-metal sealed ball valves can be selected for pipeline systems with operating temperatures above 200 degrees.

Stainless steel sanitary ball valves can be closed tightly with only a 90-degree rotation and a very small torque.

It provides a very low-resistance, straight-through flow channel for the medium. The quick-install ball valve not only has a simple structure and good sealing performance, but also has a small volume, light weight, low material consumption, small installation size, and small driving torque within a certain nominal diameter range. It is easy to operate, easy to open and close quickly, easy to operate and maintain, and is suitable for general working media such as water, solvents, acids, etc., and is also suitable for media with harsh working conditions, such as oxygen, hydrogen peroxide, methane and ethylene.

Stainless steel sanitary ball valves must not only meet very good sanitary requirements, but also have good adaptability to the medium. The same is true for media with high sanitary requirements. When it is used, it will have different media characteristics.

Then the question is, what kind of media adaptability should sanitary ball valves achieve? The adaptability of gas media, although food or pharmaceutical types of transportation are also some physical objects, but under some special processing, gas transportation must also be used, and this also requires adaptation in this medium.

The main thing is liquid, because current beverages or emulsions require the transportation of this medium, so this medium must also have good adaptability. In addition, steam is often used in the brewing industry, so the stainless steel sanitary ball valve must also be adaptable to this medium.
