Petroleum, petrochemical, natural gas ball valves

Flanged ball valves play an important role in the transportation of petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas media. The following is the main role of flange ball valves in this field: 

Fluid control: Flanged ball valves are used to control the flow of petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas and other media. By rotating the sphere, the flow rate of the medium can be adjusted to realize the opening, closing or adjustment of the fluid. 

Fluid cutoff: During the transportation of petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas media, it may be necessary to cut off the flow of fluids, such as during maintenance, overhaul or emergency situations. Flanged ball valves provide a reliable cut-off function by rotating the ball to completely seal the medium and prevent fluid leakage. 

Pressure control: The transportation of petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas media usually involves high pressure conditions. The flange ball valve has the characteristics of high pressure resistance, can withstand the flow of high pressure media, and control the pressure of the medium by adjusting the position of the ball. 

Sealing performance: oil, petrochemical and natural gas medium transportation has high sealing performance requirements for valves to prevent leakage and loss. Flanged ball valves are connected with flanges, providing reliable sealing performance to ensure that the medium will not leak during transportation. 

Corrosion resistance: Petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas media may contain corrosive substances, such as acids, alkalis, etc. Flange ball valves are usually made of corrosion-resistant materials, such as stainless steel, alloy steel, etc., to ensure their service life and performance in corrosive environments. 

Safety: The transportation of petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas media involves safety issues. Flange ball valves are designed and manufactured with safety factors in mind, such as the structural strength of the valve, emergency cutting function, etc., to ensure the safety of the medium during transportation. 

In short, the flange ball valve plays an important role in the transportation of petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas media, controlling the fluid, cutting off the flow, regulating the pressure, providing sealing performance and ensuring safety. Its design and manufacture need to meet stringent requirements and comply with relevant industry standards and specifications.
