Segment ball valves combine the simplicity of a ball valve with the control performance of a globe valve.
The V-notch port on the segment ball contributes to strong shear stress to cut through media with fibers and particles. Consequently, this v-port segment valve is a good general control valve for most pulp and paper process applications, or similar flow that contains fibers and particles.
This makes them ideal to meet the most stringent requirements in critical applications such as oil and gas, hydrogen, chemical, petrochemical, mining, and liquefied natural gas (LNG).
