Product overview
The VCP pneumatic ball valve is the pneumatic actuator equipped on the ball valve. The execution speed of pneumatic actuator is relatively fast, and the fastest switching speed is 0.05s/time, so it's usually also called as pneumatic quick cutoff ball valve. The classification as per the material is as follows: Stainless steel pneumatic ball valve, plastic pneumatic ball valve, carbon steel pneumatic ball valve and cast iron pneumatic ball valve. In case of classification according to the number of branches, it can be divided into two-way pneumatic ball valve, tee-junction pneumatic ball valve and four-way pneumatic ball valve. The pneumatic ball valve is mainly used for quick cutoff, distribution and changing the flow direction of the medium in the pipeline.
Product features
● Low hydraulic resistance. The resistance coefficient is equal to that of pipelines with the same length.
● Simple structure, small size and light weight;
● Compact and reliable. At present, the sealing surface material of ball valve is widely used in plastics with good sealing, and can also be widely used in the vacuum system;
● Easy operation and rapid opening/closing, and only rotating by 90° only from full opening to full closing for facilitating remote control;
● Easy maintenance and simple structure of the pneumatic ball valve. The sealing ring is generally movable and can be dismantled and replaced conveniently;
● When the valve is fully opened or closed, the sealing face of the ball and valve seat is isolated from the medium, so the valve sealing surface won't be eroded by the medium;
● Wide application scope, with the diameter ranging from several millimeters to meters, thus allowing for application under high vacuum and high pressure;
● No pollution to the environment, but high safety;
● Large caliber configuration (the manual and turbine turn ball valves are generally of less than DN300 caliber, and the pneumatic ball valve can reach to be of DN1200 caliber at present.)
Product application
The switch is light and small in size and can be made into a large diameter seal with reliable sealing, simple structure and easy maintenance. The sealing surface and the sphere are usually in a closed state and not easily eroded by medium. It's widely used for petroleum, chemical engineering, power generation, lithium battery new energy industry, papermaking, atomic energy, aviation, rocket, etc. and people's daily life.
