Description
The ball valves from Fluent Valves are precision-engineered quarter-turn valves designed for reliable shut-off, flow control, and minimal leakage across demanding industrial applications. Available in single piece, two-piece, three-piece, and three-way (L-port / T-port) configurations, they allow you to choose the design that best fits your operational, maintenance, and budget requirements.
Every valve body is constructed from premium materials (steel grades, stainless, alloys) suitable for corrosive environments, elevated temperatures, and high pressure. The stem and sealing assemblies use PTFE or reinforced PTFE, metal seats where needed, and advanced sealing technology to ensure durability. Options like fire-safe trims, blow-out proof stems, and full-bore / reduced-bore ports are available to meet specialized industry standards.
Our design, testing, and manufacturing processes adhere strictly to international standards (ASME, API, ISO), including hydrostatic and pneumatic pressure tests, zero-leakage seat tests, and third-party inspection for critical applications.
Features
- Robust Sealing Performance: PTFE, reinforced seats, metal seats where required, so no leakage.
- Versatile Configurations: Single, two, three piece, full- or reduced-bore, three-way options.
- Fire-Safe & Anti-Blow-Out Design: safety trim options for high temperature or fire exposure, stem designs that prevent ejection under pressure.
- Corrosion & Temperature Resistance: high-grade steels, alloy options, and surface treatments to endure harsh media and thermal stress.
- Easy Maintenance: modular designs allow quick disassembly / replacement of seats and seals without removing the whole valve.
- Wide Pressure & Size Coverage: options for low, medium, high pressures & small to large diameters.
Applications
Fluent Valves’ ball valves are trusted in:
- Oil & Gas (pipeline control, well head, processing)
- Petrochemical & Chemical Processing plants
- Water Treatment, Wastewater & Desalination Systems
- Power Generation (cooling, process, boiler feed)
- Marine & Offshore (ballast, fire-fighting, sea water handling)
- HVAC & Building Services
Ball Valve Dimensions
Fluent Valves offers a wide range of ball valve sizes and dimensions to suit various applications. Below are the standard dimensions for our ball valves:
| Standard | Purpose |
|---|---|
| ASME B16.34 | Governs design, materials, and dimensions of steel valves. |
| API 6D | Pipeline valves, including ball valves used in gas/oil transmission. |
| API 608 | Smaller metal ball valves flange/threaded ends, ensuring tight shut-off. |
| ISO 17292 | International standard for metal ball valves for petrochemicals etc. |
| API 598 / EN-12266 | Testing and inspection (leakage, seat tightness, shell test). |
| Fire Safe Standards (API 607, API 6FA) | For valves needing fire exposure protection. |
Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some common questions about our ball valves:
A floating ball valve allows the ball to move slightly downstream under pressure to achieve a tight seal. In contrast, a trunnion-mounted ball valve has the ball fixed in position by supports called trunnions, reducing operating torque and making it ideal for larger sizes or high-pressure applications.
Yes. By selecting appropriate materials such as stainless steel, duplex steel, or special alloys, and using suitable seat options (metal or PTFE reinforced), Fluent Valves’ ball valves are capable of handling high-temperature and corrosive environments effectively.
Fluent Valves offers ball valves across a wide range of pressure classes - ANSI / ASME 150, 300, 600, 900, 1500, and 2500 (equivalent to PN ratings up to PN 420). The available class depends on the valve’s design, material, and size.
Our valves are designed and manufactured according to international standards such as ASME B16.34, API 6D, and ISO 17292. They also undergo rigorous performance testing - including seat leakage and shell tests - as per API 598 or BSEN/ISO equivalent standards.
Fluent Valves provides multiple connection types including flanged, threaded, butt-weld, and socket-weld ends in accordance with ASME and ISO standards. Sizes range from ½" (DN15) up to large diameters like 48" (DN1200), depending on the specific valve variant.
Full-bore ball valves offer maximum flow with minimal pressure drop, making them suitable for pipelines where maintaining flow rate is critical. Reduced-bore valves are more compact and cost-effective, ideal for applications where a small pressure drop is acceptable.
