Ball Valve is the valve that can either be turned on or off by opening the valve and closing the valve, respectively. This type of valve uses a hollow, perforated, and pivoting ball to control flow through it. If the handle of the ball valves lies flat in alignment with the flow, then the valve is in an open state. When the handle of the valve is perpendicular, then the ball valve is closed. Hence the confirmation of the ball valve status can be checked easily by looking at the alignment of the ball valve handle.
Whenever we are going to any online grocery stores and purchase food items likes cereals, cookies, canned fruits, and pastries, you might have wondered how this food must have been processed. This is where ball valves play a crucial role in the food and beverage industries. Ball valves are flow valves that are quarter turn is used to shut off and control purposes. The ball valves are very easy to operate and can control and maintain high volume, high flow of temperature, and high pressure.
Ball valves are more efficient than traditional butterfly valves that are explicitly used for the circulation of stream water only. Ball valves that are used in food processing industries can be subclassified into two categories. They can be a valve that comes in direct contact with the food and the second that are used in utility services involved in the food industry.
Both of these types of Ball valve are regulated, but the one which is in direct contact of food must undergo stringent checks. Even a small contaminant in the valve will lead to compromise with product quality and increase the cost of production.
