In industrial applications, the flow of fluids is often controlled with hollow, perforated balls that assume pivotal roles by aligning themselves in the line of fluid. The leading ball valve manufacturers in India produce these valves with specific properties to help them become an inseparable part of the principal piping system of the concerned industry. Like few other types of valves, the ball valve too has a handle for operating. The handles offer flexible rotation in clockwise as well as anti-clockwise directions during control operations.
IDEX, the leading manufacturer of industrial ball valves, also offers the exclusive V-port ball design for industry-specific control applications. This type of valve has a seat that is v-shaped. Contrary to the design of standard ball valves, the robust design of the valves offers more control during high-velocity fluid flow. IDEX India’s manufacturing unit, Richter, processes the heavy duty ball valves that have superior corrosion resistance properties.
This renowned ball valve manufacturer offers the KN, KNA, KNR, KNAR, KA-N and KK series ball valves. The families of ball valves are proclaimed to be superior on account of the fact that they successfully offer tailor-made solutions through a modular system. The valves are the best available alternative to special metals, both in terms of utility and cost effectiveness. The ball valves are suitable for all industrial applications related to pure, ultrapure, and solid-laden media.Every industrial application that is related to highly corrosive media, ultrapure media, fluroplastic linings, or a large range of temperature and pressure can be met with these superior ball valve range solutions. The KN/KNA family is distinguished by these two design specifications: shut-off and control valves for controlling fluids that are highly aggressive in nature, and extremely strong resistance to corrosion, especially in cases of applications where the corrosion-resistance capacities of stainless steel, special metals, etc. fail to yield desired results. These valves are used in the oil and gas industry, the chemical industry, water treatment plants, HVAC systems, and the food and beverage processing industry.
The premium features that make the ball valves manufactured by IDEX highly successful in their respective industries are:
- Firstly, in the design of a one piece ball or stem unit, weak spots from ball to stem are not included. This, in turn, accounts for maximum reliability. It also has stem sealing, which can be adjusted.
- Secondly, ball valves that have a thick walled PFA lining, can incorporate a wide range of applications, both those that can function individually, and those that are available in combination. Hence, this design specification makes the ball valve by Richter universally applicable.
- Thirdly, the ball valves can be used for complex applications and have ENVIPACK stuffing box sealing. The valves can be relied upon even in extreme conditions.
- Fourthly, the ball valves by Richter require no maintenance.
