What is a Pneumatic Ball Valve?

A pneumatic ball valve is a type of quarter-turn valve that uses compressed air (pneumatic power) to control the position of the ball inside the valve body. The valve consists of a hollow, perforated, and pivoting ball that controls the flow of a fluid when rotated. When the valve is in the "open" position, the hole in the ball aligns with the pipeline, allowing flow. In the "closed" position, the ball rotates 90 degrees to block the flow.
