The Fluorine lined ball valve is designed for the opening and closing control of pipelines with strong corrosive medium. It is widely used in petroleum, chemicals, dyeing, acid and alkali industries. It is one of the ideal choices for anti-corrosion valve equipment.
 
The fluorine lined ball valve is lined with fluoroplastic, and the shell is made of investment casting. It has high strength and smooth appearance. All parts in contact with liquid are fluoroplastics. Therefore, it can be used in corrosive pipelines and pipelines of any concentration for a long time in the range of - 50 ℃ ~ 180 ℃.
 
The fluorine lined ball valve has the following advantages in addition to small fluid resistance, fast opening and closing speed and simple structures.

1. The fluorine lined ball valve of turbine adopts fluorine plastic lining layers, which have high chemical stability and can be applied to any strong corrosive chemical medium.
2. The fluorine lined ball valve adopts full bore and floating ball structures, and the valve can be closed without leakage in the whole pressure range, which is more convenient for ball cleaning and pipeline maintenance of pipeline system.
3. The ball of the opening and closing part of the fluorine lined ball valve is cast (forged) with the valve stem, which eliminates the possibility of the valve rod impacting the pressure bearing parts due to the pressure change, and fundamentally ensures the use safety in the project.
4. The fluorine lined ball valve has a compact and reasonable structure, small inner cavity space of the valve body, which reduces the medium retention. In addition, the special molding process makes the sealing surface compact, and the herringbone ring PTFE packing combination makes the valve achieve zero leakage.

Advantages of choosing fluorine lined ball valves
 
What are the reasons for the popularity of fluorine lined ball valves?
1. The main reason is that the fluorine lined ball valve adopts FEP lining layers, which have high chemical stability and can be applied to any strong corrosion property except "molten alkali metal and elemental fluorine".
2. With full bore and floating structures, the fluorine lined ball valve can be closed without leakage in the whole pressure range, which is more convenient for ball cleaning and pipeline maintenance of pipeline system.
3. The two-piece and three-piece structures of fluorine lined ball valves can be applied to various pipeline systems and working conditions with different requirements.
4. The structure of fluorine lined ball valve is compact and reasonable. The inner cavity space is small, and the medium retention is reduced. In addition, the sealing surface is better in the special molding process so that the fluorine lining ball valve reaches zero leakage.
5. The ball part of the opening and closing parts of the fluorine lined ball valve is cast (forged) with the valve stem, which eliminates the possibility that the valve rod will rush out of the pressure bearing parts due to the pressure change, and fundamentally ensures the use safety in the project.
