    Segment Ball Valve -FAQ

    V Port Ball Valve

    I What is a Segment Ball Valve?

    Segment ball valves are designed with a V-notch contour segment in the ball. This type of valve has reasonable control, rangeability, and shutoff capability. In addition, the valve can produce high capacity and non-clogging flow control. It is also known to be economical and of high performance. These valves can be of a wide variety, from small and light valves to large and heavy valves.

    The lightweight segment ball valves are easy to mount and handle. On the other hand, the heavyweight segment ball valves are used in harsh environments to deliver optimized control and for on/off applications. Due to such features, segment ball valves find use in many industries, such as paper and pulp industries, refineries, and petrochemical services, among others. In addition, these valves are durable and reliable even when used in harsh environments.

    II What is the Components of Segment Ball Valve

    • Valve Housing.This is the component that is used to house all the internal components of the ball valve. This part is made using rigid and hard materials, thermoplastic-lined metallic materials, or thermoplastics to protect the elements of the valve. This part also allows the external components to access the controlling mechanism to rotate the ball, thus opening or closing the flow.
    • Segmented Bullet.This is a V-shaped bullet. This segment ball is used as the opening for the fluid to flow. In addition, the segmented ball provides shear action to produce flow characteristics.
    • The shafts connect the segment ball valve control mechanism to rotate the segmented ball. The shafts are made with packing rings, O-rings that help seal the shaft, and a bonnet to prevent leakage. The shaft can be operated manually via a pneumatic or electric actuator.
    • The seat seals between the segment ball valve body and the segmented ball.
    • Bearing seals. These seals protect the metal bearings from the ingress of liquids.

    III How Does a Segmented Ball Valve Work?

    Segment ball valves are used for liquid and gas applications, including water, steam, pressure, vacuum, and other fluid systems. They feature a segmented design that helps to enlarge the flow area of the valve. The segmented design also helps to improve durability because it allows the valve to withstand more pressure than conventional designs.

    The segment ball valve has a quarter-turn operating mechanism with a driving and follower shaft that rotate opposite directions. When these two shafts rotate together, they open or close a flow path through the valve. The V-notch design of this type of ball allows for more direct flow because there is less resistance than with an eccentric plug design.

    A segment ball valve can have two end connections: flanged and flangeless connections. These types of connectors are typically found on larger valves where additional support is needed for installation.

    What Types of Segmented Ball Valves

    Side Entry Segment Ball Valve

    The side entry segment ball valve is a type of valve that offers high performance. This valve is manufactured according to the O type of ball valve. The side entry ball valve helps to convey solid-gas and solid-liquid two-phase medium. This means that this valve can conveniently control the flow of solids and liquids or gases and solids.

    Side entry segment ball valves are used in a wide range of applications and can be used as flappers, check, pilot, or isolation valves. The design of the valve ensures that it can work with a wide range of media under pressure up to 100MPa. The valve has a long lifetime with high reliability and good product quality; it has high performance under low pressure; its structure is simple and easy to operate; it has good sealing performance with no leakage after pressure increase.

    Top Entry Segment Ball Valve

    The top entry segment ball valve is suitable for pharmaceutical, chemical, and food processing where excellent and fast cleaning is needed. In addition, this segment ball valve has certain advantages, which make it preferred in industries that need clean products.

    Top entry segment ball valve is durable due to its stainless-steel construction which makes it last longer than other valves made from plastic material or other metals such as copper or aluminum. This ensures there will not be any leakage of chemicals even if the valve gets damaged during installation or maintenance procedures by replacing parts on time without causing any leaks during normal operating conditions.

    V What is Features of Segment Ball Valves

    flange segment ball valve

    Valve Body

    Segment valves are used in industrial settings where there is a need for high-pressure and high flow. They are designed to withstand extreme pressures, flow rates, and the stresses of being closed and opened.

    Segment ball valves have segmented bodies that help to provide greater rigidity against fluctuations in pipe loads. In addition, these valves have a side entry structure that enhances rigidity and makes it is difficult because leaks and deformations are difficult despite the high stresses due to the fluid and the closing torque.

    Segment Ball

    Segment ball valves are ideal for high-throughput applications like syrup services. The V-port segment ball provides a wide range of abilities to control fluid flow and is suitable.

    for applications with high consistency and syrup services. It’s designed with the optimum flow in mind to provide a smooth, consistent flow even under pressure.

    The hard-coated spherical face prevents galling, so you can be sure that your equipment will continue to perform at its best—even when running through rigid material!

    Bearings

    The segment ball valve designs employ double bearings on the lower and upper valves that provide good stability. This makes the contact surface with the stem more significant, enhances the low coefficient of friction and high carrying capacity, and reduces operating torque.

    The segment ball valves are designed for medium to large-size flow applications. The segmented design helps to reduce the operating force at the valve seat, which creates a smoother flow curve with less friction for better efficiency.

    Soft Seat and Metal Seal

    Ball valves come in two types: PTFE or RPTFE seats. The material used to make the seats depends on the intended medium of flow, which is usually water or oil. Seats of PTFE or RPTFE have excellent seal performance and can be used with various liquids without causing corrosion issues.

    The material used to make ball valves varies depending on their purpose as well as its intended use; PTFE is typically used where high temperatures may be encountered, while RPTFE has better corrosion resistance when exposed to chemical vapors or other harsh environments such as chemical plants or gas stations that handle volatile materials like gasoline vapors.

    Economy

    Ball valves are used in many industries and applications, including the oil & gas industry, chemical processing, and food processing. These valves are critical to producing and distributing oil, gas, chemicals, and water.

    Segment ball valve manufacturers aim to make these valves as lightweight as possible and of small stem torque. These critical design parameters result in the installation of the valve with a small electrical system or pneumatic actuators and cost-effective relative to small size or other regulating valves.

    VI How to Select Segment Ball Valves

    Wafer segment ball valve
    1. Type of Operation

    This is the case where the type of actuator feed mechanism needs to be decided. The actuator can be manual, pneumatic or electric. The actuator type depends on the power source available, for example, electricity or compressed air, as well as the required torque. Pneumatic actuators provide high torque values, while electric actuators have a high initial cost, but their operating cost is lower relative to pneumatic ones.

    1. Housing Material

    The ball valve shall be such that the material used to make the housing is compatible with the fluid to be controlled.

    • Brass is suitable for non-corrosive and neutral media, durable, resists high temperatures, and is not ideal for salty water, acids and chlorides.
    • Stainless steel is resistant to chemicals, abrasion-resistant, and resistant to high temperatures, but not good to chlorides, hydrochloric acids, bleach, and bromine.
    • PVC material is suitable for corrosive fluids like acids, salty water, bases, and organic solvents. However, it is not resistant to chlorinated and aromatic hydrocarbons. In addition, PVC temperature and pressure resistance are lower than brass and stainless steel.

     

    1. Pressure Rating

    The segment ball valve selected should withstand maximum and minimum fluid pressure during operation. The pressure rating of the ball valve will be determined by the material used to make the housing. For example, strong materials like stainless steel can withstand high pressure compared to PVC material.

    1. Working Temperatures

    Different segment ball valve materials can withstand various temperature levels from minimum to maximum values. The seal and housing material determine the temperature range of the segment ball valve. For example, brass material can withstand temperatures in the field of 20°C to 60°C, stainless steel material can withstand temperatures between 40°C and 220°C, while the ball valve with PVC segment withstands temperatures between 10°C and 60°C.

    VII What is the Standards and Approvals for segment ball valve

    Depending on the use of the segment ball valve, the valve manufacturers may need to follow specific standards from regulatory bodies. This is often necessary for the use of valves in drinking water, food, pharmaceuticals, or gas.

    Standards for segment ball valves includes, American National Standards Institute (ANSI), European Agency for the Evaluation of Medicinal Products (EMEA), and International Organization for Standardization (ISO).
