Pneumatic O-Type Ball Valve

  • Low fluid resistance, PTFE seat sealing
  • DN15–DN300, -28°C to 300°C
  • GB/API/ANSI/DIN/JIS standards, ISO 5211

Overview

ZSHO Pneumatic O-Type Ball Valve is primarily used to isolate or connect the medium in pipelines, and is also suitable for fluid regulation and control. Compared with other valve types, it offers the following advantages:

Valve Features

  • Low fluid resistance – the ball valve offers one of the lowest fluid resistances of all valve types; even reduced-bore ball valves exhibit very low resistance.
  • Thrust bearings reduce the frictional torque on the valve stem, ensuring smooth and flexible long-term operation.
  • Reliable seat sealing – seat rings made of soft-seating materials such as PTFE are inherently easy to seal, and sealing capability rises with fluid pressure.
  • Reliable stem sealing – as the stem rotates without linear movement, the stem packing seal is not easily damaged, and its sealing capability increases with rising fluid pressure.
  • Long service life – materials such as PTFE have excellent self-lubricating properties, minimizing friction loss against the ball.
  • Blow-out-proof stem – the bottom-entry stem with an integral shoulder prevents stem ejection; should fire damage the stem seal, metal-to-metal contact between the shoulder and the body maintains stem sealing.
  • Anti-static design – springs between the ball, stem and body dissipate static electricity generated during switching.

Actuator Features

  • Rack-and-pinion double-piston design delivers high output torque in a compact size.
  • Aluminium alloy cylinder – lightweight with a clean appearance.
  • Manual override can be mounted on either the top or the bottom.
  • Rack-type connection allows adjustment of the opening angle and rated flow.
  • Optional electrical position feedback and various accessories enable fully automated operation.
  • ISO 5211 standard mounting interface facilitates easy installation and replacement.
  • Adjustable end stops provide a ±4° adjustment range at 0° and 90° on standard products, ensuring synchronization accuracy with the valve.

Optional Accessories

  • On/off type: single solenoid valve, double solenoid valve, limit switch box.
  • Modulating type: electro-pneumatic positioner, pneumatic positioner, electro-pneumatic (I/P) converter.
  • Air supply treatment: air filter regulator, FRL (filter-regulator-lubricator) unit.
  • Manual override: HVSD handwheel mechanism.
