One Piece Floating Ball Valve
A One-Piece Floating Ball Valve is a bi-directional shut-off valve used to control fluid flow systems. It is effective for low to medium temperatures and pressure applications due to it’s anti-static and anti-blow-out stem design. It can also be customized to suit some cryogenic functions as well
The design comprises 3 main connected parts; the actuator, the stem, and the floating ball. They work in sequence and are housed in a one-piece body. When the actuator is turned, the stem turns as well and subsequently rotates the floating ball to either open or restrict flow. The floating ball is cushioned by elastoplast seats with seal rings which ensure that the shut-off mechanism is leak proof
Floating ball valves either have a full or partial bore, depending on the application and the level of control that is required and may also vary slightly in design based on stipulated industrial regulations
