Oxygen is a gas widely used in multiple industries, recognized for its versatility and efficiency. In the metallurgical industry, for example, it is used to enrich air and optimize combustion in metal production and welding processes. In the chemical industry, on the other hand, it is used in oxidation processes for the manufacture of different compounds, but we can also see the use of oxygen in sectors such as the automotive, paper production, food industry and medicine.
Ball valves play a key role in handling and controlling the flow of oxygen in all these industrial applications. Thanks to their precision, these valves enable optimum conditions to be maintained during the transport of this gas.
Unlike standard valves, oxygen ball valves are made of stainless steel or special alloys, resistant materials that do not ignite or react with oxygen, ensuring maximum safety.
Features of oxygen ball valves
- Robust design
- Manufactured from corrosion and wear resistant materials, oxygen ball valves ensure a long service life even under the most demanding conditions.
- Enhanced safety
- Safety is a priority in situations where oxygen must be handled. These valves are designed with high quality, non-combustible materials to prevent leakage and minimize ignition hazards. In addition, they undergo rigorous cleaning processes to remove any contaminants that could pose a fire hazard. This meticulous design ensures safe and reliable control of oxygen flow, minimizing the risk of combustion.
- Versatility
- Adaptable to a wide range of sizes and configurations, these valves meet a variety of industrial needs, from cryogenic applications to high-pressure systems.
At FHT Valves, we offer oxygen ball valve solutions that combine safety, efficiency and durability, supporting the demands of the most demanding industries.
