How to install stainless steel ball valves?

In China, the stainless steel ball valves are widely used in petroleum refining, chemical industry, papermaking, pharmaceuticals, electric power, steel and other industries, which have occupied a pivotal position in the national economy.

As for the structure of the stainless steel ball valve, it is made of the valve body, spool and several channels through its axis.

How to Install the Stainless Steel Valve

The stainless steel ball valves can be used for many places for different expectation, and the installation of the stainless steel ball valve will also be different.

The environment where the stainless steel ball valves can be used is as follow:

1. Used in indoor devices or outdoor applications for protection

2. Used in places where there are outdoor devices, which are eroded by wind, sand, rain, dew, sunlight and so on.

3. Used in the environment full of flammable and explosive gas or dust.

4. Used in the environment in the humid or dry tropical.

5. Used in the system where the temperature of pipeline medium is above 450 ℃.

6. Used in the places where ambient temperature is below -20 ℃.

7. Used in the places that are easy to be flooded or immersed in water.

8. Used in the environment where there are radioactive materials.

9. Used in the environment on ships or docks.

10. Used in places with severe vibration.

11. Used in places which are prone to fire.

For the stainless steel ball valve in the above environment, the structure, materials and protection methods of the stainless steel ball valve are different. Therefore, the corresponding device should be selected according to the environment. According to the requirements of engineering control, the control function of the electric valve in the stainless steel ball valve is completed by the electric device. The purpose of applying the electric valve is to complete the electrical control or computer control of the opening, closing and adjustment of the valve.

The use of electric devices in the stainless steel ball valve is no longer just for the save of labor and manpower. Because the functions and quality of products from different manufacturers are quite different, choosing an electric device and choosing the valve is equally important to the project. As the level of industrial automation is always increasing, on the one hand, the application of the stainless steel ball valves is increasing. On the other hand, the control requirements for valves are becoming higher and more complex. Therefore, the design in electrical control of the stainless steel ball valves is always updated. With the increasing requirements and the widespread application of computers, new and diverse methods in electrical control come into existence. For the consideration of the overall control of the stainless steel ball valves, care should be taken to select the control mode of electric devices. For example, according to the needs of the project, we should make sure that whether the method of centralized control or the method of single control should be used, whether it is linked with other equipment and so on.

All in all, as a kind of efficient tool in industry, the stainless steel ball valvekeeps its leading position in both technology and application.
