What is a high platform hard sealed ball valve？

High platform hard sealed ball valve is a type of valve characterized by the use of spheres as closing and opening components. This type of valve achieves the opening and closing function of the valve by rotating the ball around the centerline within the structure of the valve body design. High platform ball valves mainly play a role in quickly cutting off, diverting, and changing the flow direction of media in pipelines. Due to its spherical closure and opening components, it experiences relatively less resistance and fluid resistance compared to other valves. Additionally, its structure is simple and lightweight. The sealing pair of the hard sealed ball valve (i.e. the sealing surface of the valve seat and the sealing surface of the ball) is paired with metal to metal materials. This structural form is divided into floating ball type and fixed ball type, and the connection forms include flange connection, welding connection, and threaded connection. ‌

High platform ball valves are not only used for cutting off or connecting media, but also for regulating and controlling fluids. Compared with other valve types, ball valves have the advantage of low fluid resistance and are the ones with the smallest fluid resistance among all valve types. The product models of high platform ball valves are diverse, including Q41F, Q11F, Q14F, Q15F, etc. The nominal diameter range is from DN15 to DN800, the nominal pressure range is from 1.6Mpa to 16.0Mpa, and the applicable temperature range is wide, from -20 º C to+180 º C or even 550 º C. The valve body material includes stainless steel, 304, 316, 316L, etc., and the manufacturing standards comply with national standards such as GB, German DIN, American API, ANSI, etc. Applicable media include water, oil, steam, gas, corrosive liquids, etc.
