About Sanitary Ball Valve

High temperature and medium pressure based Sanitary Ball Valve is mainly used in pharmaceutical, beverage and food production industries. This type of valve uses tri clamp or butt welded connector. Equipped with PTFE seal, design of this product conforms to DIN norms. Highest operating pressure of this Sanitary Ball Valve is 10 bar and it can endure up to 120 degree C operating temperature. Latest CNC equipments have been used to design this ball valve. Pneumatically controlled operation, compatibility with media like acid, leakage proof design, smooth surface of valve handle and flat door shape are the key aspects of this accessory.

Exceptional Hygiene and Durability

This sanitary ball valve is crafted from high-grade stainless steel (SS304/SS316L) and features a PTFE seal, ensuring both superior corrosion resistance and leak-tight performance. Its design meets stringent FDA and international standards for sanitary processing.

Versatile Connection Options

Choose from Tri-Clamp, welded, or threaded ends, making installation seamless across various systems. This flexibility streamlines integration, supporting retrofit and new builds in food, dairy, beverage, and pharmaceutical facilities.

Effortless Maintenance and Cleaning

Thanks to its 3-piece structure and polished mirror finish, disassembly and reassembly for thorough cleaning are simplified, reducing downtime and upholding strict hygiene practices essential in sanitary processing applications.

FAQs of Sanitary Ball Valve:

Q: How do I select the correct connection end for my sanitary ball valve installation?

A: Choosing between Tri-Clamp, welded, or threaded ends depends on your process requirements and system compatibility. Tri-Clamp connections are popular for easy assembly and disassembly, while welded provides a permanent, robust solution. Threaded ends are suitable where frequent removal is not needed.

Q: What benefits does PTFE (Teflon) sealing offer for sanitary ball valves?

A: PTFE (Teflon) seals provide excellent chemical resistance, non-reactivity with process media, and support high purity processes. They ensure bubble-tight shutoff, minimizing contamination risks and losses in hygienic environments.

Q: When should this sanitary ball valve be used in processing systems?

A: These valves are ideal whenever hygienic on-off flow control is essential, such as in food, dairy, beverage, pharmaceutical, or chemical processing lines. Their design supports operations within temperatures from -10C to +120C and pressure up to 10 Bar.

Q: Where can this valve be installed within food and beverage plants?

A: These valves can be positioned at points requiring reliable shutoff, cleaning access, or flow isolation. Typical placements include filling lines, mixing tanks, CIP connections, and transfer lines within sanitized zones.

Q: What makes maintenance and cleaning of this ball valve straightforward?

A: The 3-piece body design allows the valve to be fully disassembled without removing it from the pipeline, while the polished or mirror finish surfaces ensure residues do not adhere, making manual cleaning and inspection highly efficient.

Q: How does the valve comply with hygiene and safety standards?

A: All wetted components are manufactured from FDA-approved stainless steel and conform to 3A, SMS, DIN, and ISO standards. This guarantees suitability for food and pharmaceutical applications, meeting stringent hygiene criteria.

Q: What are the primary advantages of using a manual lever-operated full bore ball valve?

A: Manual lever operation offers instant visual position verification and intuitive control. The full bore design minimizes pressure drop and maintains unrestricted media flow, making it suitable for viscous or particulate-laden liquids in sanitary environments.
