What is a Ceramic Ball Valve?

A ceramic ball valve is a type of ball valve which has internal components made of ceramic materials. Such ceramic components include ball, seat, and lining. A ceramic ball valve has its body made of a metallic material such as stainless steel or carbon steel. The metallic body is used to protect the ceramic trim from damage by sudden mechanical or thermal shock. A ceramic ball valve uses a ball with a hole at its center where fluid flows through when the handle is rotated. Ceramic ball valves can also be automatic by using actuators like pneumatic, electric, or hydraulic actuators. Benefits of using a ceramic ball valve over other materials like steel include lower mass and high resistance to wear. Ceramic ball valves have excellent resistance to corrosion and abrasion. Such properties of ceramic ball valves are used in severe applications prone to abrasion and corrosion. Ceramic ball valves are used in various industries such as petroleum, chemical engineering, and manufacturing plants.
