2. Outdoor installations are corroded by wind, sand, rain, dew, and sunlight;
3. Have flammable, explosive gas or dust environment;
4. Humid tropical and dry tropical environment;
5. The temperature of the pipeline medium is as high as 450℃;
6. The ambient temperature is lower than -20℃;
7. Easy to be flooded or immersed in water;
8. Possess a radioactive material (nuclear power plant and radioactive material test device) environment;
9.The environment on the ship or dock (with salt spray, mold, humidity);
10.Occasions with severe vibration; occasions prone to fire;

For the electric ball valve in the above environment, the electric device structure, material and protection method are different. Therefore, the corresponding valve electric device should be selected according to the above-mentioned obligation environment. According to engineering control requirements, for electric ball valves, their control functions are completed by electric devices. The purpose of applying electric ball valves is to complete non-manual electrical control or computer control of valve opening, closing and adjustment linkage. The application of electric devices is not just for diligence and labor saving. Since the functions and quality of products from different manufacturers are quite different, the selection of electric devices and the selection of valves are equally important to the project. As the requirements of industrial automation level are constantly improving, on the one hand, the application of electric valves is increasing, and on the other hand, the control requirements for electric valves are getting higher and higher and more complicated. Therefore, the design of electric valves in electrical control is always updated. With the continuous improvement of use requirements and the popularization and application of computers, new and diverse electrical control methods will always appear. Regarding the overall control of the electric valve, attention should be paid to the selection of the control method of the electric valve. For example, depending on the needs of the project, whether to use a centralized control method or a single control method, whether to link with other equipment, sequence control or application computer sequence control, etc., the control principles are different. The sample of valve electric device manufacturers only gives standard electric control principles, so the application department should make technical clarifications with the electric device consumer to understand the technical requirements.

Pressure limit of ball valve:
The nameplate shows the maximum allowable operating pressure of the ball valve at the maximum and minimum operating temperatures.

Seats and seals made of PTFE or RTFE are used. The operating temperature of other types of seat and seals should be checked by the KI factory.

The nominal pressure rating (PN) of the valve can indicate the maximum working pressure of the valve under normal temperature conditions. (For example: PN4.0, indicating that the maximum working pressure is 40 Bar (4.0MPa) when the operating temperature is between -190C and 380C).

For the precautions of electric or pneumatic actuators, refer to their corresponding instructions.

Troubleshooting of the ball valve:
The ball valve has been scoured by the material for a long time, causing friction, causing severe impact and abrasion, which cannot meet the normal production, and at the same time, the equipment life is shortened. At present, wear-resistant materials, such as ceramic materials and polymer composite materials, are mostly used for the wear of ball valves, and there are more technical systems used. The polymer material has superior adhesion performance, super wear resistance, and safely solves the disadvantages of frequent metal wear and ensures the normal production of enterprise equipment. Moreover, the unique ceramic material and special surface strengthening agent in the material make it better than any steel or even ceramic tile in wear resistance and physical impact resistance in the harshest dry grinding environment. The incompatibility of the product with coal is to prevent Ideal material for coal deposits.

Classification and characteristics of ball valve

There are different ways of classification of ball valves.

Function classification:
1. Bypass valve: The ball valve is generally opened by static water, so the bypass valve is set to be pressed first, that is, both sides are filled with water;

ball valve (6)

ball valve (6)

2. Air valve: when filling with water, the buoy will automatically close the valve when the air is removed; when draining, the buoy will drop by itself when it is used for replenishing air;

3. Pressure relief valve: When opening and closing the valve, remove the pressure water between the valve and the sealing cover to avoid wearing the sealing cover;

4. Drain valve: drain the sewage in the lower part of the ball shell.

Transmission classification:
1. Pneumatic ball valve

2. Electric ball valve

3. Hydraulic ball valve

4. Pneumatic hydraulic ball valve

5. Electro-hydraulic ball valve

6. Turbine drive ball valve

Classification characteristics of ball valve:

Ball valves are divided into: floating ball valve, fixed ball valve, orbital ball valve, V-shaped ball valve, three-way ball valve, stainless steel ball valve, cast steel ball valve, forged steel ball valve, ash unloading ball valve, anti-sulfur ball valve, pneumatic ball valve, electric ball valve, card sleeve Ball valves, welded ball valves.

Classified by shell/body material, ball valves can be divided into:

1. Metal material valves: such as carbon steel valves, alloy steel valves, stainless steel valves, cast iron valves, titanium alloy valves, Monel valves, copper alloy valves, aluminum alloy valves, lead alloy valves, etc.

2. Metal valve body lining valves: such as rubber-lined valves, fluorine-lined valves, lead-lined valves, plastic-lined valves, and enamel-lined valves.

3. Valves of non-metallic materials: such as ceramic valves, glass valves, and plastic valves.

There are many domestic manufacturers of ball valves, and most of the connection sizes are not uniform. Mainly divided into the following categories:

The ball of the ball valve is floating. Under the action of the medium pressure, the ball can produce a certain displacement and press tightly on the sealing surface of the outlet end to ensure that the outlet end is sealed.

Structural features of ball valve:
The sealing performance is good, but all the load of the sphere bearing the working medium is transmitted to the outlet sealing ring. Therefore, it is necessary to consider whether the sealing ring material can withstand the working load of the sphere medium. When subjected to higher pressure impact, the sphere may deviate . This structure is generally used for medium and low pressure ball valves.

The ball of the ball valve is fixed and does not move when pressed. The fixed ball valve is equipped with a floating valve seat. After receiving the pressure of the medium, the valve seat will move, so that the sealing ring is pressed tightly on the ball to ensure sealing. Bearings are usually installed on the upper and lower shafts of the ball, and the operating torque is small, which is suitable for high pressure and large diameter valves.

In order to reduce the operating torque of the ball valve and increase the reliability of the seal, an oil-sealed ball valve has appeared, which not only injects a special lubricant between the sealing surfaces to form a layer of oil film, which enhances the sealing performance and reduces the operating torque. Suitable for high pressure and large diameter ball valves.

Flexible features of ball valve:

The ball of the ball valve is elastic. Both the ball and the valve seat sealing ring are made of metal materials, and the sealing specific pressure is very large. The pressure of the medium itself cannot meet the sealing requirements, and external force must be applied. This valve is suitable for high temperature and high pressure media.

The elastic sphere is made by opening an elastic groove on the lower end of the inner wall of the sphere to obtain elasticity. When closing the passage, use the wedge-shaped head of the valve stem to expand the ball and press the valve seat to seal. Loosen the wedge-shaped head before rotating the sphere, and the sphere will return to its original shape, so that there is a small gap between the sphere and the valve seat, which can reduce the friction and operating torque of the sealing surface.

Qv347, Qv647, Qv947 V-type regulating ball valve

The Qv347, Qv647, and Qv947 V-type regulating ball valves have a shearing effect on the valve seat because the ball core has a V-shaped structure. Therefore, it is suitable for the control of relevant process parameters in the suspension medium containing fibers or small solid particles in papermaking, chemical, metallurgical and other industrial enterprises. It is especially suitable for the pulp, white water, black liquor and white water in the pulp and paper production process. Automatic adjustment of the fluid of suspended particles such as liquid and thick and turbid slurry fluid medium.

This V-shaped ball valve is a fixed ball valve and also a single-seat sealed ball valve. The adjustment performance is the best among ball valves, the flow characteristics are equal percentages, and the adjustable ratio is 100:1. It has a shearing effect between the V-shaped incision and the metal valve seat, which is especially suitable for media containing fibers, small solid particles, slurry, etc.

Three-way ball valve has T type and L type. The T type can connect three orthogonal pipelines with each other and cut off the third channel, which can split and merge. The L-shape can only connect two orthogonal pipelines, and cannot maintain the third pipeline to communicate with each other at the same time. It only plays a role of distribution.

Characteristics of ball valve

Features of ball valve:
1. Wear resistance; because the valve core of the hard-sealed ball valve is spray-welded alloy steel,

ball valve (2)

ball valve (2)

The sealing ring is made of alloy steel surfacing, so the hard sealing ball valve will not produce too much wear when opening and closing. (Its hardness coefficient is 65-70):

Second, the sealing performance is good; because the sealing of the hard-seal ball valve is manually ground, it can be used until the valve core and the sealing ring are completely matched. So his sealing performance is reliable.

3. The switch is light; since the bottom of the sealing ring of the hard-sealed ball valve adopts a spring to make the sealing ring and the valve core tightly hug together, the switch is very light when the external force exceeds the preload of the spring.

4. Long service life: It has been widely used in petroleum, chemical industry, power generation, papermaking, atomic energy, aviation, rockets and other departments, as well as people’s daily life.

The pneumatic ball valve has a simple and compact structure, reliable sealing, and convenient maintenance. The sealing surface and the spherical surface are always in a closed state, which is not easy to be eroded by the medium. It is easy to operate and maintain. It is suitable for general working media such as water, solvent, acid and natural gas. It is mainly used for cutting off. Or connect the medium in the pipeline, and can also be used for fluid adjustment and control.

Compared with other types of valves, pneumatic ball valves have angular stroke output torque, quick opening, stable and reliable, wide application, and the following advantages:

1. The thrust bearing reduces the friction torque of the valve stem, which can make the valve stem operate smoothly and flexibly for a long time.

2. Anti-static function: a spring is set between the ball, valve stem and valve body, which can lead out the static electricity generated during the switching process.

3. Since materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene have good self-lubricating properties and small friction loss with the ball, the pneumatic ball valve has a long service life.

4. Small fluid resistance: Pneumatic ball valves have the smallest fluid resistance among all valve categories. Even the reduced diameter pneumatic ball valves have relatively small fluid resistance.

5. Reliable valve stem sealing: Since the valve stem only rotates and does not move up and down, the packing seal of the valve stem is not easy to be damaged, and the sealing ability increases with the increase of the medium pressure.

6. Good sealing performance of the valve seat: The sealing ring made of elastic materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene is easy to seal in structure, and the valve sealing capacity of the pneumatic ball valve increases with the increase of the medium pressure.

7. The fluid resistance is small, and the full-bore ball valve basically has no flow resistance.

8. Simple structure, small size and light weight.

9. Close and reliable. It has two sealing surfaces, and the sealing surface materials of the ball valve are widely used in various plastics, which have good sealing performance and can achieve complete sealing. It has also been widely used in vacuum systems.

10. Convenient operation, rapid opening and closing, only need to rotate 90° from fully open to fully closed, which is convenient for remote control.

11. Convenient maintenance, simple structure of the ball valve, generally movable sealing ring, easy to disassemble and replace.

12. When fully open or fully closed, the sealing surface of the ball and the valve seat is isolated from the medium. When the medium passes, it will not cause erosion of the valve sealing surface.

13. It has a wide range of applications, with a diameter ranging from a few millimeters to a few meters, and can be applied from high vacuum to high pressure.

14. Because the ball valve has wiping properties during opening and closing, it can be used in media with suspended solid particles.

15. The processing precision is high, the cost is expensive, and it is not suitable for use in high temperature. If there are impurities in the pipeline, it is easy to be blocked by the impurities, causing the valve to fail to open.

Working principle and movement mode of gate valve

The gate valve is a gate for opening and closing. The movement direction of the gate is perpendicular to the direction

13 gate-valve-5

13 gate-valve-5

of the fluid. The gate valve can only be fully opened and fully closed, and cannot be adjusted or throttled. The gate valve is sealed through the contact between the valve seat and the gate plate. Usually, the sealing surface will be welded with metal materials to increase wear resistance, such as 1Cr13, STL6, stainless steel, etc. The gate has a rigid gate and an elastic gate. According to the difference of the gate, the gate valve is divided into a rigid gate valve and an elastic gate valve.

Working principle of gate valve:
The opening and closing part of the gate valve is a gate. The movement direction of the gate is perpendicular to the direction of the fluid. The gate valve can only be fully opened and fully closed, and cannot be adjusted or throttled. The gate has two sealing surfaces. The two sealing surfaces of the most commonly used model gate valve form a wedge. The wedge angle varies with valve parameters, usually 5°, and 2°52′ when the medium temperature is not high. The gate of the wedge gate valve can be made into a whole, called a rigid gate; it can also be made into a gate that can produce slight deformation to improve its manufacturability and compensate for the deviation of the sealing surface angle during the processing. The plate is called an elastic gate. When the gate valve is closed, the sealing surface can only rely on the medium pressure to seal, that is, relying on the medium pressure to press the sealing surface of the gate to the valve seat on the other side to ensure the sealing of the sealing surface, which is self-sealing. Most gate valves adopt forced sealing, that is, when the valve is closed, the gate must be forced against the seat by external force to ensure the sealing performance of the sealing surface. The gate valve of the gate valve moves linearly with the valve stem, which is called the lifting stem gate valve, also called the rising stem gate valve. Usually there is a trapezoidal thread on the lifting rod, through the nut on the top of the valve and the guide groove on the valve body, the rotary motion is changed into linear motion, that is, the operating torque is turned into operating thrust. When the valve is opened, when the lift height of the gate is equal to 1:1 times the valve diameter, the fluid channel is completely unblocked, but this position cannot be monitored during operation. In actual use, the apex of the valve stem is used as the mark, that is, the position where it cannot be opened, as its fully open position. In order to take into account the locking phenomenon of temperature changes, it is usually opened to the top position, and then back 1/2-1 circle, as the position of the fully open valve. Therefore, the fully open position of the valve is determined by the position of the gate, that is, the stroke. In some gate valves, the stem nut is set on the gate, and the rotation of the handwheel drives the rotation of the valve stem to lift the gate. This kind of valve is called a rotating stem gate valve, or a dark stem gate valve.

Movement mode of gate valve:
When the gate valve is closed, the sealing surface can only rely on the medium pressure to seal, that is, only rely on the medium pressure to press the sealing surface of the gate to the valve seat on the other side to ensure the sealing of the sealing surface, which is self-sealing. Most gate valves adopt forced sealing, that is, when the valve is closed, the gate must be forced against the seat by external force to ensure the sealing performance of the sealing surface.

Movement mode: The gate of the gate valve moves linearly with the valve stem, which is also called the rising stem gate valve. Usually there is a trapezoidal thread on the lifting rod, through the nut on the top of the valve and the guide groove on the valve body, the rotary motion is changed into linear motion, that is, the operating torque is changed into operating thrust. When the valve is opened, when the lift height of the gate is equal to 1:1 times the valve diameter, the fluid channel is completely unblocked, but this position cannot be monitored during operation. In actual use, the apex of the valve stem is used as the mark, that is, the position where it cannot be opened, as its fully open position. In order to take into account the locking phenomenon due to temperature changes, it is usually opened to the top position, and then rewind 1/2-1 turn, as the position of the fully open valve. Therefore, the fully open position of the valve is determined by the position of the gate (i.e. stroke). Some gate valve stem nuts are set on the gate, and the rotation of the handwheel drives the rotation of the valve stem to lift the gate. This kind of valve is called Rotating stem gate valve or dark stem gate valve.

The difference between globe valve and check valve

With the development of high-tech industry, various valves are often used in daily life. Today we will understand the difference between globe valves and check valves.

The difference between globe valve and check valve:
1. Check valve and stop valve are not the same thing, the difference between the two is mainly that the structure is

Globe valve (6)

Globe valve (6)

very different.

2. The check valve is a one-way valve, which automatically prevents the fluid from flowing in the reverse direction, without a knob, and cannot artificially block the forward flow.

3. The stop valve has a knob, which can artificially control the forward flow. Due to its special structure, even if there is no artificial pipe valve, the fluid cannot flow in the reverse direction.

Globe valve:

The globe valve, also known as the shut-off valve, is a forced sealing valve, so when the valve is closed, pressure must be applied to the disc to force the sealing surface to not leak. When the medium enters the valve from below the valve

lift-swing-check-valve-2

lift-swing-check-valve-2

disc, the resistance that the operating force needs to overcome is the friction force of the valve stem and the packing and the thrust generated by the pressure of the medium. The force of closing the valve is greater than the force of opening the valve, so the valve stem The diameter of the valve must be large, otherwise the valve stem will bend failure.
working principle of globe valve:
The globe valve, also called the cut-off valve, is one of the most widely used valves. The reason why it is so popular is that the friction between the sealing surfaces is small during the opening and closing process, which is relatively durable, has a low opening height, and is easy to manufacture. , Easy maintenance, not only suitable for medium and low pressure, but also suitable for high pressure. The closing principle of the globe valve is to rely on the pressure of the valve stem to make the sealing surface of the disc and the sealing surface of the valve seat tightly fit to prevent the medium from flowing. Our country’s valve “Sanhua” once stipulated that the flow direction of the stop valve should be from top to bottom, so there is directionality when installing. The structural length of the stop valve is longer than that of the gate valve, and the fluid resistance is large, and the sealing reliability is not strong during long-term operation.

Check valve:

Check valve refers to the valve that automatically opens and closes the disc depending on the flow of the medium itself to prevent the medium from flowing back, also known as check valve, one-way valve, reverse flow valve, and back pressure valve. Check valve is a kind of automatic valve, its main function is to prevent the back flow of the medium, prevent the pump and drive motor from reversing, and the discharge of the container medium.

working principle of check valve:
Check valve refers to the valve that automatically opens and closes the disc depending on the flow of the medium itself to prevent the medium from flowing back. It is also called check valve, one-way valve, reverse flow valve and back pressure valve. Check valve is a kind of automatic valve, its main function is to prevent the back flow of the medium, prevent the pump and drive motor from reversing, and the discharge of the container medium. The check valve can also be used to supply the auxiliary system whose pressure may rise above the system pressure. Check valves can be divided into swing check valves (rotating according to the center of gravity) and lift check valves (moving along the axis).

Electric globe valves’ structural features and installation attention

Structural features of electric globe valve:

1. Open and close without friction. This function completely solves the problem of traditional valves affecting the

Globe valve (6)

Globe valve (6)

sealing due to mutual friction between the sealing surfaces.

2. Top-mounted structure. The valves installed on the pipeline can be directly inspected and repaired online, which can effectively reduce device shutdown and reduce costs.

3. Single valve seat design. Eliminates the problem that the medium in the valve cavity affects the safety of use due to abnormal pressure increase.

4. Low torque design. The valve stem with special structure design can be opened and closed easily with only a small handle.

5. Wedge-shaped sealing structure. The valve relies on the mechanical force provided by the valve stem to press the ball wedge onto the valve seat to seal, so that the sealing performance of the valve is not affected by changes in pipeline pressure, and the sealing performance is reliably guaranteed under various working conditions.

6. Self-cleaning structure of the sealing surface. When the ball is tilted away from the valve seat, the fluid in the pipeline passes through the sealing surface of the ball evenly at 360°, which not only eliminates the local erosion of the valve seat by the high-speed fluid, but also washes away the accumulation on the sealing surface to achieve the purpose of self-cleaning .

7. The valve body and bonnet with valve diameter below DN50 are die forgings, and the valve body and bonnet above DN65 are steel castings.

8. The connection forms of the valve body and the bonnet are different, clamp pin shaft connection, flange gasket connection and self-sealing thread connection.

9. The sealing surfaces of the valve seat and the valve disc are all made of plasma spray welding or surfacing welding of cobalt-chromium-tungsten cemented carbide. The sealing surface has high hardness, wear resistance, scratch resistance and long service life.

10. The valve stem material is nitrided steel. After nitriding, the surface of the stem has high hardness, wear resistance, scratch resistance, corrosion resistance and long service life.

Electric shut-off valve installation attention:

1. Pay attention to the flow direction of the medium when installing the valve, and install it strictly in the direction indicated by the valve flow direction arrow.

2. The valve can be installed at any position of the pipeline, and at the same time, choose a carbon steel or alloy steel valve according to the temperature of the medium and the medium.

3. The electric globe valve should be installed vertically as far as possible, with the valve stem upward.

A. Opening process of globe check valve:

  • In the closed position, the valve body is pressed against the valve seat by the mechanical pressure of the valve stem.
  • When the hand wheel is turned counterclockwise, the valve stem moves in the opposite direction, and the angular plane at the bottom causes the ball to separate from the valve seat.
  • The valve stem continues to lift and interacts with the guide pin in the spiral groove of the valve stem, so that the ball begins to rotate without friction.
  • Until it reaches the fully open position, the valve stem is raised to the limit position, and the ball rotates to the fully open position.

B. Closing process of electric globe valve:

  • When closing, turn the handwheel clockwise, the valve stem begins to drop and the ball leaves the valve seat to start rotating.
  • Continue to rotate the hand wheel, and the valve stem will be acted on by the guide pin embedded in the upper spiral groove to make the valve stem and the gate rotate 90° at the same time.
  • When it is about to close, the gate body has rotated 90° without contact with the valve seat.
  • In the last few turns of the handwheel, the angular plane at the bottom of the valve stem mechanically wedges and presses the sphere to make it tightly press on the valve seat to achieve a complete seal.
