Ball valves
Alfa Laval ball valves are versatile full-bore valves that enable full fluid flow with zero flow restriction and minimal pressure drop. This enables easy transfer of viscous liquids or liquids containing particles through hygienic processing lines. Fully pigable, these ball valves ensure easy, reliable product recovery and optimal plant performance. Ideal for use across a wide range of industries, including the food, beverage, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.
Safe, economical and durable full-bore hygienic ball valves
- Safe, hygienic design with FDA-compliant product-wetted elastomers and optional cavity cleaning or cavity fillers to prevent contamination and loss
- Optimizes product recovery and complete cleanability of the valve bore and pipeline due to the full-bore, piggable design
- Minimized pressure losses, especially when handling high-viscosity liquids
- Zero flow restriction makes handling liquids containing large particles easy
- Durable, water hammer-safe and versatile operation with choice of automated or manual control
Ensure improved plant productivity and full process flow through your processing lines with Alfa Laval ball valves. Straightforward operation due to the full-bore design enables viscous liquids and liquids containing particles to flow freely through processing lines.
Ball valves are available with either manual handles or maintenance-free pneumatic actuators. Actuators can be combined with intelligent valve control units with auto setup capabilities. Or let our experts select the optimal ball valves for your process requirements to secure ease of use, low pressure drops, minimized product losses, and higher yields.
