Parts of a Ball Valve
Parts of a Ball Valve
Ball valves are constructed with several crucial components:
Valve Body
This is the main part of the valve and contains all of the components for on/off control.
Rotary Ball
The ball is designed with a center bore (hole) that the media flows through. The direction of the ball is controlled by turning the stem.
Stem
This connects the ball to the external control mechanism.
Seats
These are discs that lie in between the body and the ball. Seats provide a seal between the two and also support the ball.
Power Source
Operators control the stem of the ball valve by manually rotating it using sources like levers and handles for manual actuation. Automated power sources like electric, pneumatic and hydraulic actuation are also available.
Packing
This is a seal around the stem that prevents the media from escaping.
Bonnet
The bonnet is the part of the body that contains the stem and packing.
