Flow Control Ball Valve

A flow control ball valve is a type of valve used to regulate the flow of liquids or gases in a system. It is a type of quarter-turn valve that uses a ball-shaped disk to control the flow of the fluid. The ball has a hole in it that can be aligned with the flow of the fluid, allowing it to pass through, or blocked off, preventing the flow. Flow control ball valves are used in a variety of applications, from industrial and commercial settings to residential plumbing. They are particularly useful for controlling the flow of water in a system, as they can be used to regulate the pressure and temperature of the water. They are also used to control the flow of air in air conditioning systems, and to regulate the flow of gas in gas pipelines. Flow control ball valves are designed to be durable and reliable, and are available in a range of sizes and materials.
