How to Choose a Proper Ball Valve?

 

When choosing a ball valve fitting, you should consider some factors, such as:

 

  • Size
  • Temperature
  • Pressure
  • Application
  • Measurement

 

A ball valve's size is usually determined by the process engineering requirements of your operation. Ball valves are typically selected based on the flow rate required. It makes sense to start with a larger bore since the larger bore means a better flow rate, particularly if your ball valve will go in with the new assembly.
