Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is a Manual Ball Valve?
A Manual Ball Valve is a manually operated valve that uses a rotating ball with a bore to control fluid flow. Rotating the operating mechanism changes the ball position between the open and closed states, making it suitable for on-off isolation applications.
2. Where are Manual Ball Valves used?
Manual Ball Valves are used in suitable industrial piping systems, including water treatment, process industries, chemical plants, utilities, oil and gas and other applications requiring manual flow isolation. The exact valve construction should be selected according to the process media, pressure, temperature and piping requirements.
3. How do I select a Manual Ball Valve?
Selection should consider factors such as valve size, pressure rating, operating temperature, process media, body and sealing materials, bore configuration and end connection. Pneucon Automation can help determine a suitable configuration based on the application's technical requirements.
