The most significant advantage of a welded ball valve is its permanent, seamless connection.
- Permanent, Seamless Bond: Integrated valves are attached during the manufacturing process using heat-based welding. The valve and the tote bottle becomes a single piece. The possibility of leaks developing at the connection point is eliminated.
- Tamper Resistance: End-users from time to time may accidentally loosen the valve from the plastic tote. The welded-on valves offers security. In applications where you need to protect against unauthorized access, the welding valve is preferred.
Welded ball valves are the common and versatile design for IBC totes due to their superior sealing.
- Tight Seal: The design of a ball valve is a precision sphere. This method provides a tighter shut-off than a disc-flap design. It is advantageous in safety and product loss prevention.
- Solids and Slurs: If the liquid contains small particles, a ball valve is often the better choice. The action as the ball closes helps to cut through solids, ensuring the valve to close fully without debris blocking.
- Flow Control: The turn operation of a ball valve allows for flow control. Ball valve design allows minimal pressure drop as the handle is turned.
The manufacturing process involves the plastic injection of various parts, followed by assembly and individual air-tightness testing. The finished product is then ready for the heat-based valve-to-tote welding equipment.
The series of welded ball valves is built with a 50mm tote side connection, through a heat-based welding process, these valves secures tightly with the blow-molded IBC tote. The discharge side is a standard 2-inch screw cap. The 2-inch nozzle is used through the screw cap to facilitate liquid discharge.
