  Ball valve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A ball valve (like the butterfly valve, one of a family of valves called quarter turn valves) is a valve that opens by turning a handle attached to a ball inside the valve.
A trunnion ball valve has a mechanical means of anchoring the ball at the top and the bottom.
Some ball valves are equipped with an actuator that may be pneumatically or motor (electric) operated.

 Ball Valve Controllers
Ball valves are the most commonly used kind of valve for controlling propellant flow and feed pressure to the propellant tanks.
Between the ports is a channel containing a sphere (the "ball") with a hole through its center and suspended by seating material that holds the ball in place and seals the volume outside the ball from fluid flow around it.
The diameter of the ball channel is the specified diameter of the ball valve.

On valves 1/2"to 6",the globe valve is the most common type, although a special ball valve assembly designed for steam has better close-off, less pressure drop, and a much higher flow rate than a globe valve of the same size.
In a new construction or rework situation, a three-way ball valve placed upstream of the coil that diverts flow through the coil or bypasses the coil is a very cost effective alternative to a mixing globe valve placed on the downstream side of the coil.
When a three-way ball valve is piped as a mixing valve instead of a diverting valve (which it was designed to be) the flow is in the opposite direction of the valve's intended design.

 Ball Valves - Keidel Bath, Plumbing, Kitchens - Cincinnati, OH
As the valve handle is turned to open the valve, the ball rotates to a point where part or all of the hole through the ball is in line with the valve body inlet and outlet, allowing fluid to flow through the valve.
The ball in most water valves is made of stainless steel, and it rotates in a neoprene liner for smooth operation.
In addition to those shown, there are three-way ball valves that are used to supply fluid from a single source to one component or the other in a two-component system.

 Valve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Although valves are sometimes made connected or integral with some other object like a vessel, many valves are manufactured initially as a separate item to be connected afterwards to some other object such as a pipe, tube, or pump head on at least one of the valve ports either by a manufacturer or the user.
Valve sizes are commonly given by the outer diameter of tubing or pipng the ports connect to; for example, a 1-inch valve is sized to connect to 1-inch outer diameter tubing.
However, valves may eventually wear out from use and develop a leak, either between the inside and outside of the valve or, when the valve is shut to stop flow, between the disc and the seat.

Ball valves are the backbone of fluid control for industrial and municipal processing facilities worldwide.
Operational and maintenance problems arise when the integrity of key valve components [valve stem, packing, seats, seals, bearings] or lubrication is compromised, or when exposed surfaces that rub against solids or scale build-up increase the torque required to actuate.
offers proven, rugged alternatives to conventional stainless steel, alloy and ceramic ball valves with designs that eliminate the use of those components and the impinging surfaces that most often are the cause of failure.

 Replacing A Compressor Drain With A Ball Valve
This made draining the water from the tank a simple matter of turning the ball valve a quarter turn and waiting a few seconds for the water to blow out.
With the 1x4 spacer, the drain valve is not in danger of being damaged when I move the compressor.
The normal drain valves are so cumbersome to open that they can't be opened quickly, which I suppose increases their safety.

 Check valve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Heart valves are essentially inlet and outlet check valves for the heart ventricles, since the ventricles act as a pump.
Ball check valves should not be confused with ball valves, which are different types of valves in which a ball acts as a controllable rotor to stop or direct flow.
A swing check valve is a check valve in which the disc, the movable part to block the flow, swings on a hinge or trunnion, either onto the seat to block reverse flow or off the seat to allow forward flow.

Ball valves are quarter-turn, straight through flow valves that have a round closure element with matching rounded seats that permit uniform sealing stress.
Ball valves are used in situations where tight shut-off is required.
Some valve seats are composed of single molded forms, while other seats with higher-pressure ratings often incorporate a trunnion design where each face of the ball is separately sealed.

 Valve engineering - Trunion Mounted ball Valve
First, all valves need body bleed; the trunion mounted ball valves aren't doulbe block because rotating the ball (close-open or open-close) the pressure is retained only by the body.
A body bleed on a floating ball valve would never blow down since the ball has "floated" to the downstream seat and is slightly off the upstream seat (keeping pressure on the body cavity so it wouldn't blow down if it had a body bleed).
Venting the ball DOWNSTREAM in a trunnion valve, notching or removing the downstream seat, or providing a cavity vent, are all ways to ensure that the cavity cannot overpressure due to expansion and is depressurized for disassembly.
