Sanitary Ball Valve uses a plug body that can be easily rotated 90 degrees, which plays the role of switching and connecting the medium. The ball support methods of high-platform ball valves are mainly fixed and floating. The following editor will share these two ball support methods with you.

1. Floating ball valve: The valve stem and the ball are movably connected, and the ball has no support shaft. The valve seats at both ends of the ball valve inlet and outlet are supported, so the ball of the floating ball valve is held flat by the two ends and is in a floating state.

2. Fixed ball valve: It is more suitable for high-pressure or large-diameter fields; because the torque of the ball is small and the deformation of the valve seat is small, its sealing performance is stable and the service life is long. The ball of the fixed ball valve is connected to the upper and lower valve stems.

High-platform ball valves are mainly used for switching and cutting off or connecting the medium in the pipeline, and can also be used for fluid regulation and control. When the high-platform ball valve is in the fully open or fully closed state, the sealing surface of the ball and the valve seat is isolated from the pipeline medium.

Structural features of high-platform ball valves:

1. No friction when opening and closing. This function solves the problem of traditional valves affecting sealing due to mutual friction between sealing surfaces.

2. Top installation structure. The valve installed in the pipeline can be directly inspected and repaired online, thereby reducing equipment downtime and reducing costs.

3. Single valve seat design. The problem of the medium inside the valve cavity affecting the use due to abnormal pressure rise is eliminated.

4. Wedge-shaped closing structure. The valve is sealed by the mechanical force provided by the valve stem and the ball wedge is pressed on the valve seat.

5. Low torque design. The valve stem with a special structure can be easily opened and closed with a small handle.

Precautions for installation and maintenance of high platform ball valves:

1. Leave the position where the valve handle rotates.

2. It cannot be used for throttle.

3. Ball valves with drive mechanisms must be installed vertically.

High platform ball valve

High platform ball valves are mainly used to block, distribute and change the flow direction of the medium in the pipeline. The working principle of the high platform ball valve is to remove blockage or obstruction by rotating the ball valve. The high platform ball valve switch is light in weight, reliable in sealing, simple in structure, easy to maintain, and the sealing surface and the spherical surface are often closed. It is not easy to be corroded and is widely used in various industries.
