Feature
1. **Trunnion Design**:
table-wrapThe ball is fixed in place by a trunnion (a shaft or pin) at the top and bottom, which reduces the load on the valve seats and ensures stable operation.
2. **Low Operating Torque**:
table-wrapThe trunnion design reduces the friction between the ball and the seats, requiring less force to operate the valve. This is especially beneficial in high-pressure applications.
3. **Double Block and Bleed (DBB) Capability**:
table-wrapTrunnion mounted ball valves can isolate both upstream and downstream sides of the valve simultaneously, allowing for the bleeding of pressure or fluid from the cavity between the seats.
4. **Sealing Performance**:
table-wrapThe design provides better sealing performance, as the seats are spring-loaded or activated by the line pressure to maintain a tight seal.
5. **Safety and Reliability**:
table-wrapThese valves are known for their high reliability and are often used in critical applications like oil and gas, petrochemical, and power industries.
6. **Size and Pressure Handling**:
table-wrapSuitable for larger diameters and high-pressure conditions, trunnion mounted ball valves can handle a wide range of pressures and temperatures.
7. **Bi-Directional Operation**:
table-wrapThese valves can control the flow of fluid in both directions, providing flexibility in various piping configurations.
8. **Extended Service Life**:
table-wrapThe reduced wear and tear on the seats due to the trunnion support leads to a longer service life and lower maintenance costs.
9. **Emergency Sealant Injection System**:
table-wrapMany trunnion mounted ball valves have an emergency sealant injection system that allows for sealing in case of seat damage.
10. **Fire-Safe Design**:
table-wrapMany trunnion mounted ball valves are designed to be fire-safe, ensuring operation even under fire conditions to prevent leakage and maintain control.
These features make trunnion mounted ball valves a preferred choice for demanding applications where durability, reliability, and performance are critical.
