Furthermore, the growing awareness about environmental concerns and the need for sustainable solutions has led to the adoption ball valves in green energy sectors like solar and wind power. These valves help control the flow of fluids in these systems, ensuring optimal efficiency and minimizing energy losses.
Market Overview:
A quarter-turn valve with a hollow, perforated, and pivoting ball to control the flow is called a ball valve. The valve is open when the ball's hole is in the flow line; when the handle pivots the hole 90 degrees, the valve is closed. Additionally, when it is open, the handle is perpendicular, flat in alignment, and closed. Ball valves have a prolonged lifespan, are responsible, close securely, or continue to function properly even after extended periods of inactivity.
