Product Overview
Designed to meet the rigorous demands of chemical processing, fluid handling systems, and industrial pipelines, this ball valve stands out with its innovative structural design and premium material selection. Whether for high-pressure circuits or long-term continuous operation, it delivers consistent performance that minimizes downtime and maintenance costs.
Characteristic Description
Material Composition
Body: UPVC – Offers excellent corrosion resistance against acids, alkalis, and most industrial chemicals, ensuring longevity in harsh environments.
Seat Seal: TPE – Provides tight, leak-proof sealing with superior flexibility and wear resistance, maintaining integrity even after repeated use.
Ball: PP – Lightweight yet robust, with low friction to ensure smooth flow control and resistance to chemical degradation.
Handle: ABS – Ergonomically designed for comfortable grip, featuring high impact strength to withstand industrial handling.
O-ring Seal: NBR – Enhances sealing performance with excellent oil and temperature resistance, preventing external leakage.
Size & Connection Versatility
Available in sizes ranging from 1/2" to 8", the valve caters to diverse industrial pipeline requirements. It offers two connection options: threaded connection for quick assembly and disassembly, and socket connection for permanent, secure installations. With octagonal and compact shape variants, it fits seamlessly into both tight spaces and standard pipeline layouts.
Market Research
The global industrial ball valve market is projected to grow steadily due to the expanding chemical, petrochemical, and manufacturing sectors. Industrial operators prioritize valves that balance corrosion resistance, leak-proof performance, and low maintenance – gaps PVC Ball Valve addresses directly. Unlike metal valves prone to rust and corrosion, UPVC-based solutions are gaining traction for their cost-effectiveness and longevity in aggressive media, making this product a top choice for small to medium-sized enterprises and large industrial facilities alike.
Key Features
Innovative Sealing Design
Unlike traditional valves with O-rings placed in the handle, HJ’s design integrates the O-ring into the valve body. All sealed components are assembled via precision molding, eliminating assembly errors and enhancing structural reliability.
Easy Maintenance & Repair
The detachable handle allows for quick replacement without disassembling the entire valve. An extra O-ring can be added between the handle and body to address leakage issues, reducing maintenance time and costs.
Optimized Torque Performance
For sizes 2.5" and above, the improved mold design enables bidirectional opening. This not only reduces operational torque significantly but also ensures smooth handle rotation, even in high-pressure applications.
Performance Meets
The valve complies with international standards including ASTM, DIN, JIS, and BS, ensuring compatibility with global pipeline systems. Each unit undergoes rigorous pressure and leakage testing: high-pressure air (equivalent to 16pn water pressure) is injected into the valve, which is then held for 24 hours to verify leak-proof performance. This strict quality control guarantees that every valve meets industrial safety and performance requirements.
Customized Service
Size Customization: Tailor-made sizes beyond the standard 1/2"-8" range to fit specialized pipeline systems.
Connection Adaptation: Modifications to threaded or socket connection specifications to match unique installation needs.
Material Adjustments: Optional material upgrades for extreme temperature or chemical resistance (e.g., EPDM O-rings for enhanced chemical compatibility).
Branding & Packaging: Customized labeling and packaging for bulk orders or private labeling requirements.
FAQ
What is the maximum pressure rating of this ball valve?
The valve is tested to withstand 16pn water pressure equivalent, making it suitable for most industrial low to medium-pressure applications (up to 1.6MPa).
Can it be used with corrosive chemicals?
Yes. The UPVC body, PP ball, and TPE seat seal are resistant to most acids, alkalis, and organic solvents, making it ideal for chemical processing pipelines.
How often should the valve be maintained?
Under normal operating conditions, the valve requires minimal maintenance. We recommend inspecting the O-ring and handle annually, or replacing the O-ring if leakage is detected.
Is professional installation required?
No. The simple connection design allows for easy installation by on-site technicians. Detailed installation guidelines are provided with each order.
