Val-Matic's newly-acquired QuadroSphere® Ball Valve line is applied where typical trunnion ball valves experience problems. The unique contoured ball features four recessed surfaces that create additional flow paths, allowing the flow and particulates to move freely above, below and around the sides of the ball when moving from closed to open position. Seat ring contact to the ball has minimal contact area, which reduces wear and operating torques. With a fraction of the resistance across the seating surfaces when cycling, wear is reduced up to 70%, improving the performance life of the ball and seats. The QuadroSphere® is available in sizes 2 to 24 NPS and in ASME pressure classes 150 to 2500 with a variety of body, seat and seal materials to meet specific application requirements.
