Working Principle of Ball Valve

The ball valve is mainly used to cut off or connect the medium in the pipeline, and can also be used for fluid adjustment and control. Among them, the hard-sealed V-shaped ball valve has a strong gap between the V-shaped core and the metal seat of the hard alloy. Shearing force is especially suitable for media containing fibers and tiny solid particles. The multi-way ball valve can not only flexibly control the confluence, divergence, and switching of the flow direction of the medium on the pipeline, but also close any channel and connect the other two channels. The ball valve should generally be installed horizontally in the pipeline.

The ball valve uses a sphere with a circular channel as an opening and closing part, and the sphere rotates with the valve stem to realize the opening and closing action. The opening and closing part of the ball valve is a sphere with a hole, which rotates around the axis perpendicular to the channel, so as to achieve the purpose of opening and closing the channel.
