Flanged ball valve
Flanged Ball Valve
One of the common design of ball valve. Ball valve in this structure is widely used in oil and gas industry and more.
Introduction of Flanged Ball Valve
This valve is made with end connections of flanges, which are connected through bolts and nuts. A flanged connection is one of the most commonly used in valves due to its simplicity and ease of connection.
The main benefit of using a flanged connection in a ball valve is it achieves a leak-proof seal. Other benefits include easy operation and low-pressure drop. A flanged ball valve is often used in transport services, water and wastewater treatment, petroleum, and gas. It is suitable for handling toxic media in oil and gas industries, chemical and petrochemical processes, and power generation.
