About:

This valve is a specialized type of ball valve designed to handle fluids that must be maintained at specific temperatures to prevent solidification or degradation. These valves feature an external jacket that surrounds the valve body, allowing a heating or cooling medium to circulate and regulate the temperature of the fluid within the valve. Jacketed ball valves are essential in industries where precise temperature control is critical, such as in the chemical, petrochemical sectors.

A jacketed ball valve’s construction combines a number of essential elements designed to provide the best possible thermal control. The valve body, ball, stem, seats, and jacket make up the main structure. The valve body serves as both the conduit for fluid flow and the housing for the internal parts. To control fluid flow, a ball that is usually constructed of stainless steel or other high-performance alloys is perforated and rotates inside the valve body. The ball may rotate because of the stem, which joins it to an external actuator or handle. When the valve is closed, the seats, which are often composed of durable materials like PTFE, guarantee a tight seal. The jacket that encloses the valve body is what distinguishes a jacketed ball valve. Around the valve, this jacket forms a chamber that allows the circulation of a heating or cooling medium, like steam, hot oil, or glycol. The jacket’s thermal medium intake and exit apertures allow for effective temperature control.

Working Mechanism:

Coordination of fluid flow and temperature management is the foundation of a jacketed ball valve’s operation. The process fluid can pass through the valve while it is in the open position because the perforated ball lines up with the inlet and exit ports. The process fluid is kept at the proper temperature by the jacket’s flowing thermal medium, which keeps it from hardening or deteriorating. The durable seats offer a tight shut-off, and the ball rotates to obstruct the flow channel when the valve needs to be closed. The jacket keeps the heating or cooling medium flowing during this procedure, guaranteeing that the process fluid’s temperature doesn’t fluctuate even when the valve isn’t in use. This ongoing temperature regulation is essential for maintaining the integrity and quality of the fluid being processed.
