Understanding Floating Ball ValvesFloating ball valves are designed with a floating ball mechanism that allows the ball to move slightly within the valve body. This movement helps maintain contact with the seals, providing better sealing performance and compensating for any misalignment in the pipin

Understanding Ball Valves in the Chemical IndustryStructure and FunctionBall valves consist of a spherical ball that rotates within a valve body to control the flow of fluid. The ball is supported by a stem and can move slightly within the valve body, allowing it to seal tightly against the seat. Th
