Wafer Ends Floating Ball Valve

Ball valves (Flanged general and butt-welding connection optional) are suitable for using on various kinds of pipeline from pressure Class 150 to Class 1500, PN16 to PN160 to cut off or allow the flowing of medium. By using different material, the valves could be suitable for medium such as water, steam, oil, nitric acid, acetic acid, oxidizing substance, carbamide and etc. Manual/worm gear/pneumatic or electric actuators could be chosen by needs.
Ball valve is used to cut off, distribute or change the flowing direction of medium. 90°'s turning with very small torque could seal the valve very well.

Female threaded ball valves are suitable for using on pipelines of medium or low pressure to turn off or swith on pipeline medium. Operation manners are in general of manual, and pneumatic or electric actuators are available.Based on design structures, the valves get divided into three pieces, two pieces, and one piece types. Female Threaded ball valve & butt welded ball valve could be divided into one piece, two piece and three piece body. Advanced casting technology is used for body with reasonable structure and beautiful appearance. Elastic seat material is adopted to ensure reliable sealing together with easy operation.

The pneumatic ball valve is a pneumatic actuator with a ball valve. Pneumatic actuators perform relatively fast, and the fastest switching speed is 0.05 seconds / times, so it is usually called pneumatic quick shut-off of ball valves. The pneumatic ball valve is usually equipped with various accessories such as the solenoid valve, the gas source treatment triad, the limit switch, the locator, the control box, etc. to achieve local control and long distance centralized control. In the control room, the valve switch can be controlled. It does not need to run to the scene or at the high altitude and the dangerous zone. It saves human resources, time and safety.

KOSEN 3PC Forged Steel Floating Ball Valves has a good sealing performance, however, we need to consider whether the outlet side seat could bear the working pressure as the movable ball would nearly pass all the medium pressure to the seat. For this reason, the floating structure is generally for middle & low pressure working pressure.
