Why is a Trunnion Ball Valve More Suitable for a Sludge Discharge Pipeline?
According to relevant information, within a certain period, a trunnion ball valve can replace gate valves, globe valves, and regulating valves as a tool for transporting fluids. It has good corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and pressure-bearing capacity. In recent years, more and more people inquire about products that are of high quality and low price. Now, a brief explanation is given as to why a trunnion ball valve is more suitable for use as a sludge discharge pipeline.
Adoption of a full-bore unobstructed flow passage
The trunnion ball valve is often affectionately called the “hose valve” by people. In recent years, a large number of trunnion ball valves have been widely used in sludge discharge pipelines due to their adoption of a full-diameter unobstructed flow passage. Therefore, it is particularly suitable for the unobstructed passage of substances such as powders, solid particles, and slurries, which greatly helps to improve the passing rate of various substances.
Trunnion can still be normally closed even if there is remaining sludge
The reason for using it for a high frequency sludge discharge pipeline is that it is not easily affected by harsh environments. Even if there is residual sludge inside, it can still be normally closed. In fact, most trunnion ball valves for pipelines are designed without flow resistance. Therefore, even if there is residual sludge, there will be no phenomena such as dripping, leakage, or seepage.
No gaps or dead corners, and trunnion ball valve does not impede sludge transportation
The trunnion ball valve can be driven by various methods such as pneumatic, electric, and hydraulic to extrude the casing, achieving the function of switching and regulation. At the same time, when the trunnion ball valve is transporting sludge, there are no empty spaces or dead corners that can cause blockages, which are not conducive to sludge transportation. In this way, it is more conducive to ensuring the integrity and comprehensiveness of sludge transportation.
According to market survey feedback, trunnion ball valves have been widely used in many industries such as glass, sewage treatment, and food. Especially those trunnion ball valves with development potential have gathered many application advantages. The reason why it is more suitable for use as a sludge discharge pipeline is not only because it adopts a full-diameter unobstructed flow passage but also because it adopts a transportation method without gaps or dead corners and can still be normally closed when there is remaining sludge.
