Characteristics and Installation Precautions of Three-way Ball Valves
Characteristics
1. The fluid resistance of a three-way ball valve is small, and its resistance coefficient is equal to that of a pipe section of the same length.
2. A three-way ball valve has simple structure, small sizes, and light weight.
3. The sealing surface of ball valves is made from plastic, with good sealing performance, tightness and reliability, and has also been widely used in vacuum systems.
4. A three-way ball valve has convenient operation, quick opening and closing, with only 90 ° rotation from full opening to full closing, facilitating remote control.
5. The ball valve’s sealing ring is generally movable, making disassembly and replacement more convenient.
6. When fully open or fully closed, the sealing surfaces of the ball and valve seat are isolated from the medium, and when the medium passes through, it will not cause erosion of the valve sealing surface.
7. A three-way ball valve is widely used. The diameter ranges from small, a few millimeters, large to several meters, from high vacuum to high pressure.
Installation Precautions
1. Leave a position for the valve handle to rotate.
2. The ball valve cannot be used for throttling.
3. Ball valves with transmission mechanisms should be installed vertically.
In the installation process, install the ball valve horizontally to play a better role. Regular cleaning and maintenance must be carried out for the three-way ball valve. When a malfunction occurs, it needs to be resolved promptly and effectively to avoid causing significant losses during use.
