High Pressure DN10 DN15 Titanium Two Piece Ball Valve TA1 TA2 TA10 Ball Valve for Water Supply Treatment

Product Introduction:

Special material ball valves encompass a variety of types, including two-way, three-way, and four-way ball valves. These valves come in both soft-seal and hard-seal configurations and are available in floating and trunnion-mounted designs. The materials used for these ball valves are selected for their exceptional performance in demanding environments and include titanium, nickel, zirconium, Hastelloy, Monel, Inconel, duplex stainless steel, 904L, Alloy 20, and C4 steel, among others. These high-performance materials ensure that the valves offer excellent corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and reliability across a broad range of industrial applications.

Grades of Titanium Ball Valve:

Titanium ball valves, known for their excellent corrosion resistance and strength, are widely used in various demanding environments, including chemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical, and marine engineering fields:

TA1 (Gr1)-Pure titanium, offering the best ductility and toughness, easy to form and weld.

TA2 (Gr2)-Pure titanium, with good overall performance including good corrosion resistance and moderate strength, easy to form and weld.

TA9 (Gr7)-Primarily titanium with the addition of 0.12-0.25% palladium (Pd), significantly enhancing its corrosion resistance, especially in reducing environments.

TA10 (Gr12)-Titanium alloy containing small amounts of molybdenum (Mo) and nickel (Ni), providing better strength and heat resistance than pure titanium while maintaining good corrosion resistance.

TC4 (Gr5)-Titanium alloy mainly consisting of titanium with the addition of 6% aluminum (Al) and 4% vanadium (V), possessing very high strength and hardness, good corrosion resistance, and low density.

Product Design Features:

• Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Titanium ball valves possess outstanding corrosion resistance, allowing them to operate stably for extended periods in environments containing strong acids, strong alkalis, and other corrosive media. This makes titanium ball valves an ideal choice for handling corrosive media, thereby extending the system's service life.

• Superior Mechanical Properties: Titanium ball valves feature good strength and hardness, with heat-treated titanium alloy ball valves achieving high strength. This enables titanium ball valves to withstand higher pressures and temperatures, making them suitable for various operating conditions.

• Lightweight and High Strength: Compared to other metal materials, titanium ball valves have a lower density, making them lightweight and easier to install and maintain. Simultaneously, their high strength allows for a broader range of working pressures, meeting diverse engineering needs.

• Excellent Sealing Performance: Titanium ball valves employ sealing structures to effectively prevent medium leakage, ensuring system safety and reliability. The contact area between the ball and the sealing ring is relatively small, resulting in excellent sealing performance.

• Flexible Operation: Titanium ball valves utilize a rotating ball mechanism for switching, making operation simple and flexible. Rotating the ball enables quick opening and closing of the fluid flow, requiring minimal operating force. The design of the ball ensures smooth and vibration-free valve operation during opening and closing processes.

• Wide Applicability: Titanium ball valves can be applied to a variety of conditions and media, including chemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical, and marine engineering fields. Their excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical properties allow titanium ball valves to meet different industrial demands.

Applications of Titanium Ball Valves:

Titanium ball valves have a wide range of applications in various industrial fields, mainly including the following aspects:

Chemical Industry: Due to the excellent corrosion resistance of titanium materials, titanium ball valves are commonly used in chemical production processes that involve handling corrosive media, such as acid and alkali solutions, and oxides.

Petroleum and Natural Gas Industry: Titanium ball valves play a crucial role in the extraction, transportation, and processing of petroleum and natural gas. They are used to control the flow and pressure of fluids, ensuring the safe and stable operation of the system.

Marine Engineering: Titanium ball valves have good seawater corrosion resistance, making them widely used in marine engineering applications, such as fluid control systems in subsea pipelines and offshore platforms.

Aerospace Field: Titanium ball valves are extensively used in aerospace hydraulic systems, fuel systems, etc., due to their lightweight and high-strength characteristics that meet the requirements of aircraft.

Food and Pharmaceutical Industries: Since titanium materials are non-toxic and do not contaminate food or medicine, titanium ball valves are often used in fluid control systems in food processing and pharmaceutical industries.
