SPIRAX SARCO ball valve WCB/150 CLASS

SPIRAX SARCO ball valve WCB/150 CLASS
Design and Construction:

The ball valve consists of a body that houses a rotating ball.
This ball has an orifice (a hole) machined directly through it.
Two sealing rings hold the ball securely in place within the valve body.

Operation:

The key feature of a ball valve is its quarter-turn operation. When you turn the handle or actuator by 90 degrees:

Open Position: The ball aligns with the flow path, allowing fluid (such as steam or water) to flow directly through the orifice.

Closed Position: The blank sides of the ball block both the inlet and the outlet, effectively shutting off the flow.

Benefits:

Reliable Shut-Off: Ball valves provide tight shut-off, reducing the risk of leaks.

Low Maintenance: Their precision design and fewer moving parts mean less maintenance.

Compact Design: Ball valves are space-efficient due to their quarter-turn mechanism.

Automation: Some models have ISO mounting, making them easy to automate.

Corrosion Resistance: The materials used ensure long product life.

Unrestricted Flow: Ball valves allow for low pressure drop and high-capacity flow.
