Function

The Pneumatically Actuated Pipe Ball Valve operates by using a pneumatic actuator to control the rotation of the ball inside the valve body. The actuator opens or closes the ball valve with a simple 90° turn, enabling precise regulation of fluid flow. The full-bore ball design allows for unrestricted fluid flow when the valve is open, minimizing pressure drop, while the sealing system ensures that the valve remains leak-proof when closed.

The pneumatic actuator enables remote control of the valve, which is ideal for automated systems or systems that are difficult to access. The actuator is powered by compressed air, providing fast and reliable operation, and is available in single-acting or double-acting configurations depending on the application. This design makes it ideal for applications requiring rapid response times and minimal downtime.

Constructed from high-quality materials like stainless steel, carbon steel, and alloy steels, the Pneumatic Pipe Ball Valve is resistant to corrosion, ensuring long-term durability in demanding environments. Its full-bore ball design ensures high flow capacity, while the tight sealing prevents leakage, even under high-pressure conditions. This valve is widely used in industries such as chemical processing, oil and gas, water treatment, and HVAC for controlling fluid flows with precision and ease.
