What is the working principle of the ball valve?

In fact, the floating ball valve uses the buoyancy of water and the gravity of nature. One side of the floating ball valve is a hollow container that can produce certain buoyancy, and the other side is the controller of the valve, which is connected on both sides. There is water in the water tank, and the water level will continue to rise. When the water surface meets the floating ball, the floating ball will rise with the rise of the water level because of the buoyancy. When the water level rises to a certain level, the valve will be raised because of the lever, and then the on-off condition of the switch can be controlled

Application of Floating Ball Valve

Floating ball valve is widely used in water tank, fire tower, municipal water supply and drainage, and some mines. It is widely used for energy conservation and environmental protection. The key factor in the whole device is the floating ball of water tank, which is generally installed on the air inlet pipe of water tank. When the water level rises to a certain level, the float will open the main valve, and when the water level falls, the float will follow. The ball valve is a kind of diaphragm valve, which is controlled by the pilot valve. In this way, it is not easy to find water hammer in the water pipe, thus protecting the water pipe and the sluice.

In fact, the structure of the water gate valve is relatively simple. The on-off of the switch is completely controlled by the buoyancy of water. It is very independent and will not be affected by other facilities or other facilities. When the gate valve is damaged, the maintenance is very simple.
