Ball Valve

Design and Specifications

  • Identify maximum and minimum pressure ranges.
  • Determine temperature limits for operation.
  • Specify the medium characteristics (liquid, gas, corrosiveness).
  • Assess compatibility with the medium.
  • Consider mechanical properties (strength, durability).
  • Evaluate environmental conditions (corrosion, temperature).
  • Calculate flow requirements to determine size.
  • Choose connection type (flanged, threaded, welded).
  • Ensure compatibility with existing piping systems.
  • Identify applicable industry standards for valves.
  • Ensure compliance with safety and performance regulations.
  • Review certification requirements for materials and designs.
