The Electric Ball Valve, a pivotal component in industrial automation and fluid control systems, has revolutionized the way liquids and gases are regulated within various industrial processes. Its seamless integration into modern technological advancements has made it a highly sought-after device in a wide range of industries, including water treatment, pharmaceuticals, petrochemicals, and metallurgy.
The fundamental operating principle of the electric ball valve lies in its ability to rotate a spherical disc or ball within the valve body. This rotation is actuated by an electric motor, allowing for precise and reliable control of fluid flow. The ball has a hole or port that aligns with the valve body's inlet and outlet to allow fluid passage when in the open position. When rotated 90 degrees, the port is perpendicular to the flow, effectively blocking the fluid's path.
