High Performance V Type Control Ball Valve API607 API6d Ce
The V-type ball valve is a specialized type of control valve designed for precise flow regulation. Its closure element features a V-shaped opening on the spherical segment, which, with its sharp edges, creates a shearing action against the seat during rotation. This design allows the valve to exert significant cutting force on the media, making it ideal for handling fluids with solids or fibers. The V-shaped opening also forms a sector area with the seat flow channel, enabling the adjustment of the flow cross-sectional area and providing accurate control over the media flow.
This valve combines both control and shutoff functions, offering the same sealing performance as standard ball valves. When equipped with a pneumatic or electric actuator, it can be widely used in industrial process automation systems.
Key Features:
- **Integral Body Structure**: The body uses an integrated side-entry design, ensuring high structural rigidity and reducing the risk of external leakage.
- **Self-Lubricating Bearings**: Upward and downward self-lubricating bearings are installed, offering high contact area with the stem, excellent load capacity, and low friction, resulting in reduced valve torque.
- **Flexible Sealing Options**: The seat can be either a metal hard seal (with hard alloy overlay, chrome plating, or spray welding) or a PTFE soft seal, providing excellent sealing performance, corrosion resistance, and adaptability to various media.
- **High Performance-to-Price Ratio**: The lightweight body and low stem torque make it energy-efficient, and when paired with actuators, it offers superior cost-effectiveness compared to other control valves.
- **Wide Media Compatibility**: The design prevents media from settling in the cavity due to the shearing effect between the V-notch and seat, making it suitable not only for liquids but also for media containing fibers and solid particles.
- **Precise Flow Control**: The small Cv value allows for fine-tuned flow regulation, especially in smaller sizes.
