Sanitary ball valves have higher requirements in terms of sanitary standards compared to ordinary ball valves. Below are the characteristics and applications of sanitary ball valves shared by DELCO Valve.
What are sanitary ball valves
Sanitary ball valves are generally made of SUS304 and 316L, and then processed by high-grade polishing equipment to meet the surface accuracy requirements. Sanitary ball valves are specially used for material transportation and flow control, unlike ordinary industrial ball valves, it can meet the special requirements of the food industry, biopharmaceutical field of various media.
Sanitary ball valve structure
- Valve body: made of stainless steel, reasonably designed to ensure smooth fluid flow, easy to clean and disinfect.
- Ball: made of stainless steel or special alloy, polished to ensure that the fluid will not be contaminated when flowing on the surface of the ball.
- Seat: Made of elastomeric material such as PTFE or EPDM, it fits tightly with the ball to prevent fluid leakage.
- Stem: connects the actuator and the ball, made of stainless steel with internal channels for driving the ball to rotate.
- Seal packing: fills the gap between the stem and the valve body to prevent fluid leakage, usually made of materials such as PTFE or graphite.
- Actuator: The power source can be manual, pneumatic or electric type.
- Connection method: clamp type, quick-fit type or flange type, etc. Choose the appropriate connection method according to the specific needs.
- Auxiliary parts: including discharge port, cleaning port and observation window, etc., used for discharging accumulated liquid or gas, cleaning the inside of the valve and observing the working condition.
Features of sanitary ball valves
- Material selection: sanitary ball valves are usually made of stainless steel, such as 304, 316L stainless steel, to ensure the corrosion resistance of the valve body and valve cover, and at the same time to meet the cleaning and sanitation requirements.
- Structural design: the structural design of sanitary ball valves is relatively simple, usually consists of valve body, valve cover, valve stem, stem sleeve, spool ball, sealing packing and other components. The internal surface of the valve body is required to be smooth, no dead space, easy to clean and disinfect. The overall structure is designed to be compact and easy to install and maintain.
- Sealing performance: sanitary ball valves need to ensure zero leakage when the valve is closed, and at the same time, when the fluid passes through, flexible operation is required. Therefore, sanitary ball valves usually use special sealing structures, such as elastic seals, PTFE seals, etc., to ensure the sealing performance and operational flexibility of the valve.
- Safety: the material and design of sanitary ball valves to ensure its safety performance, in line with strict health standards, suitable for use in industries requiring high sanitary level.
- Wide range of applications: sanitary ball valves in the food industry, used for liquid control, such as milk, juice, soy sauce, etc.; in the pharmaceutical industry, used to ensure the purity of medicines and production process hygiene requirements; in the chemical industry, to meet the needs of a variety of media control.
Summarize
Sanitary ball valves are fluid control equipment designed for food, pharmaceutical, chemical and other industries with high hygiene requirements, with simple structure, easy operation, reliable sealing and other advantages. Widely used in food processing, pharmaceutical and chemical industries and other fields.
