In industrial processes and systems, valves play a crucial role in regulating the flow of liquids, gases, and other materials through pipelines and machinery. Among the various types of valves used, the electric screw ball valve stands out for its precision, efficiency, and reliability. This article aims to delve into the functionality, applications, and advantages of the electric screw ball valve, shedding light on why it is increasingly becoming a preferred choice for modern industries.

What is an Electric Screw Ball Valve?

The electric screw ball valve combines the mechanism of a ball valve with an electric actuator to offer controlled and automated flow regulation. A traditional ball valve uses a spherical ball with a hole through the center, which rotates to control the flow of fluid. When combined with an electric actuator, the valve becomes capable of automated operation through an electric signal. The electric screw ball valve features a screw mechanism that adjusts the position of the ball inside the valve. This design allows for precise control over the flow, pressure, and temperature of the fluid being transmitted. The electric actuator is controlled by a variety of electrical signals, including 4-20mA, Modbus, or other communication protocols, making the valve suitable for integration into automated control systems.
