Functions and Characteristics of External Threaded Brass Ball Valves:

Male threaded brass ball valves are primarily used for cutting off or connecting media in pipelines, and can also be used for fluid regulation and control. They offer low flow resistance, a simple structure, small volume, light weight, good sealing performance, convenient operation, and quick opening and closing, facilitating remote control.

The external threaded brass ball valve is composed of a valve body, valve stem, valve seat, and ball.

Key Considerations for Stable Performance and Long Service Life:

To ensure stable performance and a long service life, attention should be paid to:

  1. Pre-use Cleaning: Before use, the pipeline and the overflow part of the valve body should be cleaned with water to prevent residual iron filings and other debris from entering the ball valve body cavity.
  2. Pressure Release Before Maintenance: When the valve is closed, there may still be residual medium and pressure inside. Before any overhaul, close the upstream shut-off valve, open the ball valve to be inspected, and fully release internal pressure.
  3. Careful Disassembly for Cleaning: Soft-seated ball valves typically use PTFE as the sealing material, while hard-sealed ball valves use metal hard-facing for the sealing surface. When cleaning, handle with care to prevent damage to the sealing ring and avoid leakage. If cleaning with plain water is insufficient, cleaning agents like alcohol can be used, provided they do not harm the valve body and components. Allow the cleaning agent to fully evaporate after cleaning.
  4. Storage: Long-term outdoor storage can lead to corrosion of the valve body and parts, rendering them unusable. Ball valves should be stored in a rain-proof, waterproof, and moisture-proof environment, with flange covers tightly closed. Valves stored for over 12 months should be re-tested before use to ensure stable performance.
