About Solid Ball Valve ( Long Handle )
A ball valve is a flow control device which uses a hollow, perforated and pivoting ball to control fluid flowing through it. It is open when the ball's hole is in line with the flow inlet and closed when it is pivoted 90-degrees by the valve handle, blocking the flowExceptional Durability and Corrosion ResistanceCrafted from high-grade polypropylene (PP), this solid ball valve ensures optimal corrosion resistance in challenging environments. Its robust one-piece molded construction guarantees long-lasting performance, even when exposed to aggressive chemicals or continuous water flow. The double O-ring seal reinforces against leakage, making it a dependable option for demanding industrial, agricultural, or domestic setups.
Effortless Flow Control and InstallationThe extended blue long lever handle allows for smooth manual operation, providing precise regulation or complete shut-off of flow with just a 90-degree rotation. Its design supports both socket and threaded end connections, making installation effortless-regardless of whether the valve is positioned horizontally or vertically within the pipe network.
FAQ's of Solid Ball Valve ( Long Handle ):
Q: How does the long lever handle enhance the operation of the solid ball valve?
A: The extended long lever handle is designed for easy gripping and smooth movement, making manual operation more comfortable, especially in tight or hard-to-reach areas. This facilitates precise flow control and complete shut-off with a simple 90-degree turn.
Q: What types of fluids and gases can this valve control?
A: This valve is suitable for controlling the flow of water, chemicals, and gases, making it versatile for industrial, agricultural, and domestic piping systems where manual flow regulation or shut-off is required.
Q: When should I choose the double O-ring seal feature?
A: Choose the double O-ring seal variant when leakage prevention is critical. The dual seals offer enhanced protection against leaks, particularly in high-pressure or chemical environments, ensuring reliable operation over time.
Q: Where can this solid ball valve be installed?
A: The valve is designed for installation in both horizontal and vertical positions. It's commonly used in pipe networks for fluid control across industrial plants, irrigation systems, chemical transport lines, and domestic water distribution, throughout India.
Q: What is the process for installing this ball valve in a pipeline?
A: Installation is straightforward with socket or threaded ends. Simply align the valve with the pipe, connect the ends as required, and ensure the seals are in place for leak-free performance. The polypropylene body makes it lightweight and easy to handle during setup.
Q: How does the material contribute to the valve's longevity?
A: Constructed from polypropylene (PP), this valve offers high resistance to corrosion, scaling, and chemical attack. This durability significantly prolongs service life, even in aggressive or humid environments.
Q: What benefits does this valve offer over metal alternatives?
A: Polypropylene construction ensures the valve is lightweight, non-corrosive, and easy to install, with lower maintenance compared to metal valves. Its double O-ring design further reduces the risk of leaks, providing a safer and more reliable solution for many fluid control applications.
