High Pressure Titanium 150 LBS 3 Inch Ball Valve Manual Pneumatic Electric Ball Valve Gr1 Gr2 TA1 TA2

Product background:

A ball valve is a type of valve that controls fluid flow by rotating a spherical ball with a hole through its center. Known for its simple structure, ease of operation, and excellent sealing performance, the ball valve is widely used in various industrial pipeline systems such as oil, natural gas, chemicals, power generation, and water treatment. Key features include quick 90-degree open/close operation, reliable sealing even under high pressure and temperature, durability due to the choice of materials for the ball and seal, minimal fluid resistance especially in full bore designs, and multiple connection options like flanged, threaded, and welded connections. Ball valves are utilized across industrial production, civilian utilities like water supply and HVAC systems, and automated control systems when paired with electric or pneumatic actuators. They can be classified based on structure (e.g., floating, trunnion-mounted, and resilient-seated ball valves), bore type (full bore and reduced bore), and stem design (top-entry and side-entry). Materials vary from stainless steel and carbon steel to brass and titanium alloys, chosen according to specific operational conditions and media. Overall, ball valves play a crucial role in enhancing system efficiency and ensuring reliable and safe operation in modern industrial and civilian applications.

Product Description:

Special material ball valves encompass a variety of types, including two-way, three-way, and four-way ball valves. These valves come in both soft-seal and hard-seal configurations and are available in floating and trunnion-mounted designs. The materials used for these ball valves are selected for their exceptional performance in demanding environments and include titanium, nickel, zirconium, Hastelloy, Monel, Inconel, duplex stainless steel, 904L, Alloy 20, and C4 steel, among others. These high-performance materials ensure that the valves offer excellent corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and reliability across a broad range of industrial applications.

Product Design Features:

• Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Titanium ball valves possess outstanding corrosion resistance, allowing them to operate stably for extended periods in environments containing strong acids, strong alkalis, and other corrosive media. This makes titanium ball valves an ideal choice for handling corrosive media, thereby extending the system's service life.

• Superior Mechanical Properties: Titanium ball valves feature good strength and hardness, with heat-treated titanium alloy ball valves achieving high strength. This enables titanium ball valves to withstand higher pressures and temperatures, making them suitable for various operating conditions.

• Lightweight and High Strength: Compared to other metal materials, titanium ball valves have a lower density, making them lightweight and easier to install and maintain. Simultaneously, their high strength allows for a broader range of working pressures, meeting diverse engineering needs.

• Excellent Sealing Performance: Titanium ball valves employ sealing structures to effectively prevent medium leakage, ensuring system safety and reliability. The contact area between the ball and the sealing ring is relatively small, resulting in excellent sealing performance.

• Flexible Operation: Titanium ball valves utilize a rotating ball mechanism for switching, making operation simple and flexible. Rotating the ball enables quick opening and closing of the fluid flow, requiring minimal operating force. The design of the ball ensures smooth and vibration-free valve operation during opening and closing processes.

• Wide Applicability: Titanium ball valves can be applied to a variety of conditions and media, including chemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical, and marine engineering fields. Their excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties allow titanium ball valves to meet different industrial demands.

Common Applications of Titanium Ball Valve:

Titanium ball valves are widely used in different industries due to their excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and low density:

Chemical Industry: Titanium ball valves are commonly used to handle strong acids, alkalis, and other highly corrosive chemicals, ensuring long-term stable operation in harsh environments. They are applied in chemical equipment, reactors, storage tanks, and piping systems.

Oil and Gas Industry: Titanium ball valves are used in offshore oil platforms and onshore oilfield extraction and processing equipment to resist corrosion from seawater and hydrogen sulfide gas. They are suitable for use in oil pipelines, natural gas liquefaction facilities, and refineries.

Pharmaceutical and Food Industry: Titanium material meets hygiene standards, and its strong corrosion resistance prevents reactions with pharmaceuticals or food, making it widely used in pharmaceutical and food processing equipment. They are commonly used in purified water systems, reactors, and mixing vessels.

Marine Engineering: Due to its excellent resistance to seawater corrosion, titanium ball valves are used in marine structures, seawater desalination equipment, and subsea pipelines.

Power Industry: Titanium ball valves are used in power plants to handle high-temperature, high-pressure steam and corrosive cooling water. They are mainly applied in nuclear power plants, thermal power plants, and cogeneration equipment.
