Titanium ball valve is a key piece of equipment widely used in industries such as oil, chemical, metallurgy, and power. It features corrosion resistance, high-temperature resistance, light weight, and long service life, making it an ideal valve choice for many harsh conditions like high pressure, high temperature, and strong corrosion.
It is a ball valve made of titanium alloy, with its structure primarily including the valve body, bonnet, stem, ball, and seat. The main characteristic of the titanium ball valve is its excellent corrosion resistance, capable of operating normally in various corrosive media such as strong acids, strong bases, and salts. Additionally, it has advantages like high-temperature resistance, wear resistance, and light weight, making it widely used in industries such as oil, chemical, metallurgy, and power.
Its working principle involves using the valve stem to drive the ball to rotate, forming different channels between the ball and the seat, thereby achieving the opening, closing, and regulation of the medium. When the ball rotates 90 degrees, the medium passes through the valve; when the ball rotates 180 degrees, the medium is completely cut off. Its sealing performance mainly depends on the contact area between the ball and seat and the performance of the sealing materials.
Excellent Corrosion Resistance: It has excellent corrosion resistance, capable of resisting various corrosive media such as strong acids, strong bases, and salts. Therefore, in many corrosive conditions, the titanium ball valve becomes the ideal valve choice.
Good High-Temperature Resistance: With a high melting point and good thermal stability, it can maintain excellent mechanical and sealing properties in high-temperature conditions. Therefore, the titanium ball valve is widely used in high-temperature conditions.
Good Wear Resistance: Featuring a low friction coefficient and high hardness, it boasts excellent wear resistance. In many wear-intensive conditions, the service life of the titanium ball valve far exceeds that of valves made from other materials.
Lightweight: Titanium alloy has a low density, making the titanium ball valve much lighter than valves made from other materials. This gives the titanium ball valve an advantage in many conditions where lightweight is a high requirement.
Long Service Life: Due to its excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature resistance, and wear resistance, the service life of the titanium ball valve is far longer than that of valves made from other materials. In many long-term operating conditions, the titanium ball valve offers a high-cost performance ratio.
In summary, the titanium ball valve, with its excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature resistance, and wear resistance, has found widespread application in many industries. Understanding the relevant knowledge about titanium ball valves helps us better select and use this high-performance valve, thereby improving production efficiency and safety.
