Electric high temperature ball valves are critical components in industries that deal with high-temperature fluids, such as chemicals, oil and gas, power generation, and manufacturing. These valves are designed to withstand temperatures above 150°C and are used in applications where precise flow control is required under extreme thermal conditions. By combining the reliability of ball valve technology with the automation capabilities of electric actuators, electric high temperature ball valves provide a practical solution for various industrial processes.

What Is an Electric High Temperature Ball Valve?

An electric high temperature ball valve consists of two primary components: a ball valve and an electric actuator. The ball valve is used to regulate the flow of fluid by rotating a ball with a hole (or bore) through it. When the valve is fully open, the fluid flows freely; when it is closed, the ball blocks the flow entirely. The electric actuator, which is mounted on the valve, provides the mechanical force to rotate the valve’s ball to the desired position. This actuator is controlled electronically, often by a controller or a remote operator, allowing for precise and automated control of the valve’s operation.
