Mechanism,function,type,application,advantages and disadvantages of Spring loaded ball valve.
Mechanism | Uses a spring to provide automatic operation or actuation. |
Function | Automatically holds the valve in a specific position (usually closed) when no external force is applied. |
Types | – Normally Closed: Valve closes when no pressure is applied. – Normally Open: Valve opens when no pressure is applied. |
Applications | – Safety valves – Low-pressure systems – Flow regulation in simple on/off applications. |
Advantages | – Fail-safe operation – Compact and reliable – Automatic closure in case of power loss. |
Disadvantages | – Limited flow control (typically just on/off) – Spring wear or loss of tension over time. |
