Floating Ball Valve

The ball in a floating ball valve is not fixed and can move freely. Under the influence of media pressure, the ball can shift to tightly press against the sealing surface at the outlet end, ensuring a secure seal at that end.

The structure of a floating ball valve is simple and offers good sealing capabilities. However, the ball transfers the load of the working medium entirely to the outlet sealing ring. Therefore, it is important for workers to consider whether the material of the sealing ring can withstand the pressure exerted by the working medium. Under high pressure, the ball may become displaced. This design is generally used for low-pressure applications.
