Product Selection Differences for Liquid Level Ball Valves

When selecting Liquid Level Ball Valves, there are several key factors to consider:

  1. Material: The material of the valve should be compatible with the liquid being handled to prevent corrosion or degradation.

  2. Size and Pressure Rating: Choose a valve size and pressure rating that can accommodate the flow and pressure requirements of your system.

  3. Valve Type: Ball valves come in different types such as full port, reduced port, floating ball, and trunnion ball. The type you choose will depend on your specific application needs.

  4. Actuation: Decide whether you need a manual or automated (electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic) actuation system depending on the frequency and control requirements of the valve operation.

  5. End Connections: Consider the required end connections such as threaded, flanged, or welded connections based on the piping system configuration.

  6. Sealing Material: The sealing material (e.g., PTFE, metal, elastomer) should be selected based on the compatibility with the fluid and temperature requirements.

  7. Flow Control: Check if the valve provides precise flow control and shut-off capabilities, if needed.

  8. Certifications and Standards: Ensure that the valve meets industry standards and certifications for safety and reliability.

  9. Brand Reputation: Consider the reputation and reliability of the manufacturer or brand when selecting a liquid level ball valve.

By considering these factors, you can choose the most suitable liquid level ball valve for your specific application.
