Some industries that utilize high-pressure ball valves include oil & gas, chemical processing, aerospace engineering, military, and power generation.
How to Select the Right 102 Series Ball Valve for Your Application
Before you can select the right high-pressure ball valve for your equipment, familiarize yourself with what your system requires to ensure the valve you select is compatible. Take note of the following details:
- Your equipment’s minimum and maximum pressure tolerance
- Operational temperatures
- Compatibility of the fluid or gas with 316 stainless steel and brass (e.g. is it corrosive)
- The measurements required for safe and secure application, including tube/pipe size, thread standards (SAE, NPT, BSP, etc), and tolerances
You can generally find this information in your equipment manual or by contacting the manufacturer. Once you have the right information, contact us, and we’ll help you select the right high-pressure ball valve for your needs!
