145-6050: Steel Ball Valve

A Ball Valve used in a fuel tank is a type of valve that controls the flow of fuel by using a spherical ball with a hole or port in the center. When the ball valve is in the closed position, the hole or port in the ball is perpendicular to the flow direction, blocking the fuel flow. This prevents any fuel from passing through the valve. When the valve is in the open position, the hole or port in the ball aligns with the inlet and outlet ports, allowing fuel to flow through the valve. Attributes: • Helps to minimize energy loss and ensures efficient fuel transfer • Preventing any fuel from passing through Applications: A Ball Valve is used in fuel storage tanks to control the flow of fuel during filling, dispensing, or transfer operations. They are installed at the inlet and outlet ports of the tank to regulate the fuel flow. The ball valve allows for easy and precise control of fuel flow, ensuring efficient and safe fuel storage.
