Titanium ball valve is a key device widely used in the petroleum, chemical, and chemical industries. It features corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, light weight, and long service life. Therefore, it has been widely applied in the petroleum, chemical, and chemical industries. This article will introduce the application range of titanium ball valves in the chemical industry, how to select and maintain them, and their installation precautions.
Petroleum Chemical Industry
In the petroleum chemical industry, titanium ball valves are widely used in oil and gas transportation, petroleum refining, and other fields. Due to the excellent corrosion resistance and strength of titanium alloy, titanium ball valve can withstand corrosive media in high temperature and high pressure environments, while also ensuring the stability and reliability of the valve.
Chemical and Pharmaceutical Industry
In the chemical and pharmaceutical industry, titanium ball valve is mainly used in high-purity reactor equipment in the pharmaceutical process, production line conveyance pipelines, and other fields. Because titanium alloy has excellent chemical stability and is non-toxic and tasteless, it effectively avoids contamination of pharmaceuticals and ensures the quality, safety, and stability of the drugs.
Other Industries
Besides the petroleum chemical and pharmaceutical industries, titanium ball valve can also be used in other fields, such as marine engineering and aerospace. Due to the light weight, high strength, and corrosion resistance of titanium alloy, it can also be used to manufacture various high-quality aerospace equipment, as well as submarine pipelines and submarines in marine engineering.
Selection
When selecting, consider factors comprehensively based on the nature of the media (such as temperature, pressure, corrosiveness, etc.), flow requirements, and the usage environment to choose the appropriate valve model and specifications.
Installation
The installation of titanium ball valve should follow the following principles:
Conduct a comprehensive inspection of the valve before installation to ensure the valve is free of defects or damage.
Keep the valve in the closed position during installation to prevent media leakage.
Ensure good sealing performance at the connection between the valve and the pipeline to prevent media leakage during installation.
Ensure the operation of the valve is flexible and without jamming during installation.
After installation, conduct a pressure test on the valve to ensure that the valve's sealing performance and safety meet the requirements.
To ensure its normal operation and service life, the valve should be regularly maintained.
Regularly check the appearance of the valve to ensure it is free of defects or damage.
Regularly lubricate the valve to reduce friction during operation and extend the valve's service life.
Regularly clean the valve to remove dirt, deposits, and other contaminants from the surface, ensuring the valve's sealing performance.
Regularly conduct pressure tests on the valve to ensure its sealing performance and safety meet the requirements.
In summary, titanium ball valve is high-performance, widely used high-end valve products. Unlike traditional ball valves, ball valves made of titanium alloy have unique advantages in corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, and are particularly suitable for chemical industry enterprises with high-quality media requirements.
