4-Way Stainless Steel Flanged Floating Ball Valve
Product Features
Four-way design: It has four ports and can realize the switching and control of multiple fluid paths, suitable for complex fluid distribution systems.
Floating ball design: The ball floats in the valve body and can automatically adapt to pressure changes to ensure the sealing performance.
Flange connection: It adopts the standard flange connection method, conforming to the ANSI B16.5 or DIN 2543 standard, which is convenient for installation and maintenance.
Stainless steel material: The valve body and the ball are made of 304 or 316 stainless steel materials, which have good corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance.
Multiple operation modes: It can be equipped with manual, gear transmission, electric or pneumatic actuators to meet the needs of different working conditions.
Reliable sealing performance: It adopts PTFE or metal seals to ensure zero leakage under high-pressure and high-temperature working conditions.
Fireproof design: It complies with the API 607 fireproof standard to ensure that the sealing performance can still be maintained in extreme situations such as fires.
Anti-static design: Springs are installed between the valve body, the ball and the valve stem to prevent electrostatic accumulation and reduce the risks of fire and explosion.

Application Fields
Petroleum and natural gas industry: Used to control the flow of media such as natural gas and crude oil.
Chemical industry: Used to handle corrosive chemical media such as acids and alkalis.
Food and pharmaceutical industry: Used to handle liquid media in food and pharmaceutical production.
Urban gas pipeline network: Used to control the transportation of urban gas.

Specific Configuration and Operation Modes
Port configuration:
L-Port: Allows the switching of the fluid direction from one port to another.
T-Port: Allows the fluid to be directed to one port or blocked to another port.
X-Port: Provides multiple fluid path configurations, suitable for complex industrial applications.
Operation modes:
Manual operation: Equipped with a handle, and the opening and closing of the valve are achieved by rotating the handle.
Gear transmission: Equipped with a gear transmission device, which is convenient for large-torque operation.
Electric or pneumatic actuators: Electric or pneumatic actuators can be optionally equipped to achieve remote control.
How to choose a forged or cast valve body: API 600 vs API 602 size limits, casting quality factor, NDT coverage, weld repair policy and cost crossovers.
How pressure seal bonnet valves work, why bolted bonnets stop at Class 900, seal ring materials, disassembly rules and the low-pressure leak signature.
A lift check valve closes in millimetres, not degrees. Disc lift, cracking pressure, chatter, and why steam and compressor duty punish a badly sized one.
Category A and Category B butterfly valves differ at the seat, not the body. What each one seals with, where each leaks, and what to put on the datasheet.
Butterfly vs gate valve compared by loss coefficient, pumping energy cost, weight, torque and leakage class, with selection rules and datasheet data.
How solid, flexible and split wedges differ in sealing, thermal binding and misalignment tolerance, plus selection rules and RFQ data.
The backseat, the gland and the blowout-proof stem decide whether a gate valve leaks at the stem, and whether it can be repacked with the line still live.
A fire-safe valve must still isolate after its soft seat has burned away. What API 607 and ISO 10497 test, and what the certificate does not cover.
How to size pneumatic valve actuators: valve torque, safety factors, spring-return vs double-acting, air pressure, stroking time and fail-safe position.
What the sleeve actually seals againstA sleeve type plug valve has three parts in the sealing path: a metal plug with a through port, a moulded sleeve of PTFE or PFA that wraps the plug and carries its own matching port, and a metal body liner behind the sleeve.
