Trunnion Ball Valve

A floating ball design offers efficient sealing with simple construction. As the name indicates, the ball has some freedom to move along the axis of the pipeline, which offers efficient downstream sealing. When line pressure is applied to the closed ball, it moves slightly (or floats) downstream to maintain contact with the downstream seat where primary sealing occurs. A quarter turn motion from full open to full close ensures quick open-close action, an inherent advantage for automatic remote control application. Floating ball valve offers effective bi-directional sealing. http://www.oudian-valve.com/
