South American valve are leading Trunnion Mounted Ball valve manufacturer in Brazil . Trunnion ball valves are a type of quarter-turn valve used to control the flow of media in a pipe, either stopping or starting it. Unlike the more common "free-floating" ball valve design, trunnion ball valves feature a design change. In a trunnion ball valve, the ball is connected to the stem on one end and to a shaft called the trunnion on the other end.
This design securely holds the ball in place. In contrast, a floating ball valve only connects the ball to the stem, allowing it to float. South American valve are top Trunnion Mounted Ball valve manufacturer in Brazil These valves offer several advantages over free-floating valves. They are suitable for use in both low and high-pressure applications and typically have lower operational costs compared to free-floating ball valves.
What is the difference between Trunnion and floating ball valve?
The main difference between trunnion and floating ball valves lies in their ball support mechanism. Trunnion ball valves have a fixed ball supported by a trunnion, providing stability and suitability for high-pressure applications. In contrast, floating ball valves have a ball that floats and moves slightly within the valve body, making them more suitable for lower-pressure applications.
