A ceramic ball valve is a type of ball valve that has internal components made of ceramic materials. Such ceramic components include a ball, seat, and lining. A ceramic ball valve has a body made of a metallic material such as stainless steel or carbon steel. The metallic body is used to protect the ceramic trim from damage by sudden mechanical or thermal shock. A ceramic ball valve uses a ball with a hole at its center where fluid flows through when the handle is rotated. Ceramic ball valves can also be automatic by using actuators like pneumatic, electric, or hydraulic actuators. The benefits of using a ceramic ball valve over other materials like steel include lower mass and high resistance to wear. Ceramic ball valves have excellent resistance to corrosion and abrasion. Such properties of ceramic ball valves are used in severe applications prone to abrasion and corrosion. Ceramic ball valves are used in various industries such as petroleum, chemical engineering, and manufacturing plants.
Features:
1. High strength. Ceramic ball valve internal components are designed and manufactured using high-performance structural ceramic materials. The body and external parts of the ceramic ball valve are manufactured using high-strength metallic materials which enhance its mechanical strength.
2. Durable. Ceramic ball valves have good abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and high metallic body strength. Under the same working conditions, the service life of a ceramic ball valve is 2 to 4 times that of other corrosion and abrasion-resistant valves.
3. Corrosion resistance. Ceramic ball valves have stable chemical characteristics for most acid-based fluids which makes them excellent for corrosion resistance.
4. High hardness value. Ceramic ball valves as the name suggests are made of ceramic materials which are known for their high hardness. Such ceramic materials include zirconia which has a high hardness value of around HRA88 which is second after the strongest material diamond.
5. Need low torque. Ceramic ball valves have a smooth surface of the seat and ball and a self-lubricating feature when opening and closing. This makes the opening and closing resistance small and thus needs small torque to open and close.
6. Free from fluid leakage. Ceramic ball valves use a surface contact sealing between the ball and the seat. The sealing contact is enhanced by the high accuracy roundness of the ball which ensures that it can produce zero leakage as per international standards.
Benefits:
1. Ceramic ball valves are easy to operate.
2. They need small torque to open and close.
3. They are versatile valves.
4. They are very durable.
5. They are resistant to abrasion.
6. Ceramic ball valves are resistant to corrosion.
7. Ceramic ball valves can be inspected, cleaned, and repaired.
