The Construction Principle of Electric Ball Valve
The electric ball valve has a simple structure and consists of only a few parts, which saves data consumption; small size, light weight, small installation size, small driving torque, pressure regulating valve, simple and agile operation, only need to rotate 90 ° to quickly start Closed; and it also has a good flow regulation effect and sealing characteristics at the same time, in the application of large and medium caliber, medium and low pressure, electric ball valve is the dominant valve form. When the electric ball valve is in a fully open position, the thickness of the butterfly plate is the only resistance when the medium flows through the valve body, so the pressure drop that occurs through the valve is small, so it has better flow control characteristics. Electric ball valves have two sealing types: elastic seal and metal seal. Elastic sealing valve, the sealing ring can be inlaid on the valve body or attached to the periphery of the butterfly plate.
Valves with metal seals generally have a longer life than valves with elastic seals, but it is difficult to achieve a complete seal. Metal seals can adapt to higher operating temperatures, while elastic seals have the disadvantage of being limited by temperature. If the electric ball valve is requested as a flow control, it is important to accurately select the size and type of the valve. The construction principle of the electric ball valve is particularly suitable for manufacturing large diameter valves. Electric ball valves are not only widely used in general industries such as petroleum, gas, chemical, and water treatment, but also used in cooling water systems of thermal power stations. Commonly used electric ball valves include wafer type electric ball valves and flange type electric ball valves. Wafer type electric ball valve uses double-head bolts to connect the valve between two pipe flanges. Flange type electric ball valve is equipped with flanges on the valve. The two flanges of the valve are connected to the pipe flange with bolts. The strength performance of the valve refers to the ability of the valve to withstand medium pressure. The valve is a mechanical product that is subjected to internal pressure, so it must have sufficient strength and rigidity to ensure long-term use without cracking or deformation.
