A trunnion ball valve features a ball supported by fixed trunnions, which stabilizes the ball and reduces operating torque. This design is ideal for high-pressure and high-temperature applications, offering reliable sealing and durability. It is commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation.

Features

• Stable Ball Support: Fixed trunnions hold the ball in place, reducing movement and providing stability, especially under high pressures.
• Reduced Operating Torque: The trunnion design lowers the force needed to operate the valve, making it easier to control.
• High Pressure and Temperature Tolerance: Suitable for extreme conditions, including high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
• Enhanced Sealing: Reliable sealing performance is maintained even under demanding operating conditions.
• Durability: Built to withstand harsh environments and frequent use, offering long-term reliability and reduced maintenance needs.

Standards for Ball Valves

Single-piece ball valves are durable and simple but limited in size. Two-piece valves allow easier maintenance and cover more sizes, while three-piece valves offer the easiest maintenance with modular parts but are more complex and expensive. Each type balances durability, ease of service, and application needs.

Benefits

• Quarter-Turn Operation: Ball valves operate with a 90-degree turn of the handle, providing quick and straightforward on/off control of fluid flow
• Tight Sealing: They use a spherical ball with a hole in the center and resilient seals, typically made of PTFE, to ensure a tight, leak-proof seal when closed.
• Low Pressure Drop: The straight-through design of the ball valve minimizes resistance to flow, resulting in a lower pressure drop compared to other valve types.
• Durability: Made from robust materials like stainless steel or brass, ball valves are designed to withstand high pressures and temperatures, offering long service life.
• Versatility: They are suitable for a wide range of fluids and applications, including water, oil, gas, and chemicals, with various configurations and sizes available to meet different operational needs.
