Most oil projects in Nigeria require the use of ball valves to control the switch of the refinery. Our ball valves play a pivotal role in the Nigerian market.
Soft seal ball valve is a more superior sealing performance of the ball valve, its structure mainly includes the valve body, ball, seat, sealing ring, valve stem and handle and other parts. The following is a detailed introduction to its structural characteristics:
- Valve body:
The valve body is composed of two parts, the body is cast or forged, the surface of the inner cavity is smooth, and the inlet and outlet are connected by flanges.
- Sphere:
The ball is made of stainless steel material, the outer surface is smooth, and the radial seal is made of two O-shaped sealing rings and a steel plate washer, which makes the sealing more stable and reliable.
- Valve seat:
Soft seal ball valve seats are usually made of packing materials, such as teflon, nylon, polypropylene, etc. The contact surface of the valve seat and the ball has been precisely machined to improve the sealing performance and life.
- Sealing ring:
The sealing ring is made of a new elastic material, which has the advantages of better sealing, higher wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and longer life.
Five, valve stem:
The stem is made of stainless steel and polished to improve wear resistance and corrosion resistance.
- Handle:
The handle is made of stainless steel and can be turned clockwise and counterclockwise to control the on-off state of the sphere.
In summary, the structure of the soft seal ball valve is characterized by the use of high-quality materials and precision machining technology, making its sealing more superior, wear resistance and corrosion resistance higher.
