Stainless steel electric ball valves are essential components in modern industrial automation and fluid control systems. These valves are widely used in various applications, including water treatment, chemical processing, oil and gas, and food and beverage industries. This article delves into the features, benefits, working principles, and applications of stainless steel electric ball valves.
What is a Stainless Steel Electric Ball Valve?
A stainless steel electric ball valve is a type of valve that utilizes a spherical disc, or "ball," to control the flow of liquids or gases. The valve features a hole in the center of the ball, which aligns with the pipeline when the valve is open. Conversely, when the ball is rotated 90 degrees, the hole is perpendicular to the flow direction, effectively blocking the passage. The electric actuator attached to the valve allows for automated control, making it suitable for remote operation and integration into automated systems.
