Floating ball valves are a type of ball valve where the ball "floats" within the valve body and is not fixed in place. The ball is typically held in position by the pressure of the fluid in the pipeline. When the valve is in the open position, the hole in the ball aligns with the flow path, allowing fluid to pass through. When the valve is closed, the ball rotates to block the flow.

Key Features of Floating Ball Valves:

1. Ball Movement: The ball is not fixed to the valve stem, but rather "floats" and moves within the valve body in response to the pressure of the fluid. This design is simpler and more cost-effective compared to trunnion-mounted ball valves.

2. Sealing: When the valve is closed, the ball presses against the seats at both ends of the valve, ensuring a tight seal. The pressure from the fluid helps the ball to press against the seats and form a strong seal, preventing leakage.

3. Simple Design: Floating ball valves typically have a simpler design than trunnion-mounted ball valves. The ball is free to move, but the seats and stem provide the necessary control for the valve's operation.

4. Cost-Effective: Since the design is simpler, floating ball valves are generally less expensive than trunnion-mounted ball valves, making them an ideal choice for lower-pressure applications or smaller pipelines.

5. Applications: Floating ball valves are commonly used in industries such as water treatment, oil and gas, chemical processing, and HVAC systems. They are well-suited for lower-pressure applications, although they can be used in higher pressure applications when properly designed.

6. Size and Pressure Range: They are typically used in smaller sizes (up to around 4 inches in diameter) and for lower to medium-pressure applications. Larger and higher-pressure systems often require trunnion-mounted ball valves for more support and stability.

7. Advantages:

   • Simple and reliable operation

   • Lower cost compared to trunnion-mounted valves

   • Good for smaller or moderate pressure applications

   • Easy to repair and maintain

8. Limitations:

   • Not suitable for high-pressure and large-diameter applications where a trunnion-mounted ball valve might be more effective.

   • More prone to wear and tear due to the ball’s movement, especially in applications with frequent opening and closing.

Common Types:

• Two-Piece Floating Ball Valve: The body is made of two pieces, which can be bolted together or welded, making it simpler to assemble and repair.

• Three-Piece Floating Ball Valve: The body consists of three pieces, providing more flexibility in terms of maintenance and the ability to replace parts.

Floating ball valves are often a popular choice when durability and simplicity are needed without the complexity and cost of trunnion-mounted systems. They are especially efficient in low to medium-pressure environments.

Audco Cast Steel Globe Valves are robust, high-performance valves used for regulating fluid flow in pipelines. Made from durable cast steel, they are designed for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.

Design Screwed End Ball Valves are a type of valve used to control the flow of liquids or gases in a pipeline, featuring a spherical ball with a hole through it. These valves are equipped with screwed (threaded) end connections, allowing them to be easily installed and removed without the need for welding or flanged fittings. The ball inside the valve rotates to either block or allow flow, providing quick and reliable shut-off control. Screwed end ball valves are commonly used in smaller diameter pipelines and applications that require secure, leak-free connections. They're ideal for systems with limited space or low-pressure operations.

A threaded ball valve is a a type of valve with threaded end connections designed to screw onto threaded pipes and components. They are easy to install and offer an easy and reliable way to control flow in industrial and plumbing applications.

The turning motion of the handle positions the ball to either align or block the pipe opening for controlling fluid movement. The primary functions include: On/Off Control – Unlike some other valves that allow partial regulation of flow, a standard ball valve is mainly designed for fully open or fully closed positions.

A Manual Ball Valve is a type of valve that uses a ball with a hole (or port) through the center to control the flow of liquids or gases. The valve is operated manually by turning a lever or handle to rotate the ball, aligning or blocking the flow path.

Key Features:

1. Operation: The valve is operated by a manual handle or lever that rotates the ball 90 degrees. When the hole in the ball aligns with the flow path, the valve is open, allowing fluid to pass. When rotated to the closed position, the ball blocks the flow.

2. Simple Design: Manual ball valves are straightforward to operate, requiring no power or automation. They are known for their simplicity, reliability, and ease of use.

3. Durability: These valves are designed for long-term use and can handle a wide range of pressures, temperatures, and flow types.

4. Material Options: Common materials include stainless steel, brass, and PVC, depending on the application and fluid type.

5. Applications: Ideal for small to medium-sized pipelines in residential, commercial, and industrial settings. They are used in systems where manual operation is preferred, such as water distribution, HVAC systems, and gas pipelines.

Advantages:

• Cost-Effective: Manual ball valves are typically less expensive than automated valves.

• Reliable: Provide tight shutoff, ensuring no leaks when closed.

• Easy Maintenance: Simple design leads to minimal maintenance needs.
