Segmented ball valve

If you have ever turned on a faucet to wash your hands, or opened a hose to water plants, you’ve used something called flow control. Flow control means regulating the volume or quantity of water or liquid flowing through a pipe. It's pretty significant in a variety of places (factories, chemical plants, etc.) where it is important to keep the flow of liquids consistent in the name of safety and/or efficiency

A segmented ball valve steel has what looks like a ball inside of it that has been cut through. This ball can rotate to open the valve and allow the liquid to flow or to close the valve and stop that flow.” What is interesting about this ball is that it is not solid, it's in segments. Each of the segments can move independently, so this enables very precise control over the liquid flow.

Precise Flow Control Made Possible with Segmented Ball Valves

With the valve open, the segments of the ball rotate inward to create an opening through which water can pass through the ball. This allows fluid to move through unrestricted. However, if the valve is closed, the segments open up, covering the hole and halting the flow of the liquid. This precision in pigging valve control is crucial when we want to regulate exactly how much liquid passes through the pipe, such as in cases where small variations would have a significant effect

Segmented ball valves are really effective when it comes to the situations in factories that needs precise control of the flow of liquid. This makes them an efficient design, so they can perform their task properly without consuming unnecessary resources. The valve is also simpler to maintain: If one section is broken or worn, it can be fixed independently. All of which saves time, resources — and money — critical for keeping factories up and running.
