FAQ’s
Have a question before you buy our products? Take a look at the FAQs below.
If you don’t find the answer you’re looking for, get in touch with us here.
- What is a Wafer Type Ball Valve?
- How does it work?
It operates by using a spherical ball with a hole through the middle to control the flow of fluid. When the valve is open, the hole in the ball aligns with the flow path, allowing fluid to pass through. When closed, the ball rotates to block the flow.
- What are the main applications?
Main applications include HVAC systems, water supply systems, wastewater treatment plants, and various industrial processes requiring reliable fluid control.
- What are the benefits of using one?
Benefits include compact design, easy installation, low pressure drop, and suitability for applications where space is limited or weight needs to be minimized.
- What materials are used in their construction?
They are typically constructed from materials such as stainless steel, carbon steel, cast iron, and other corrosion-resistant materials to suit different application requirements.
- How do I choose the right one for my application?
Choose based on factors such as pressure rating, temperature range, fluid type, valve size, end connections, and compatibility with the specific application requirements.
- Can they be repaired?
Yes, Wafer Type Ball Valves can be repaired. Common repairs may include replacing worn seals or damaged components to restore the valve's functionality.
- What maintenance is required?
Regular maintenance includes inspection, cleaning, and lubrication of moving parts to ensure smooth operation and prevent corrosion or damage.
- Are they available in different designs?
Yes, they are available in various designs, including floating ball, trunnion mounted ball, and top entry ball valves, to suit different applications and operating conditions.
