What are the advantages of V-Ball valves?
The V-Ball or V ‘notch’ offers various advantages due to its low maintenance design.
- Flow control – The precision of 30° & 60° V-Balls offer equal percentage flow characteristics, that are not normally associated with a standard ball valve. The ball can be positioned anywhere between 0° and 90°, allowing the user to control the desired flow rate they require. Furthermore, when fitted with a modulating actuator this will provide a better flow control accuracy than a standard bore ball valve.
- Bubble tight shut off – V-Ball valves have soft seats with bubble tight shut off and can control or shut off bi-directional flow. As no additional shut off valves are required, v-balls are cost efficient and reduces the number of components in the system for the user.
- Higher shut-off pressure – The 90° ball rotation allows the V-Ball to shut off at higher working pressures. Thus, allowing lower torque actuators to be used, resulting in cost saving and higher efficiency for the end user.
- Flexibility – The advantage of a ball valve is the flexibility, whether you require 50% stainless steel filled PTFE seats for steam applications or PTFE for water/ air application or end connections can be changed to meet the site requirement i.e. screwed BSP, socket weld, butt weld & flanged.
