Difference Between Sanitary Ball Valves and Ordinary Ball Valves
- Клапан DELCO
In industrial piping control systems, ball valves are a common type of valve. So what is the difference between sanitary ball valves и ordinary ball valves? Below Клапан DELCO will share the difference between sanitary ball valve and common ball valve.


What is sanitary ball valve?
Sanitary ball valves are made of stainless steel 304SS or 316, using high-grade polishing equipment for processing, so that the surface is smooth to ensure cleanliness, to achieve no media accumulation area, will not produce potential pollution requirements. Sanitary ball valves can meet the special requirements of a variety of media in the food, biopharmaceutical field.
Difference between sanitary ball valve and ordinary ball valve
- Valve body material: sanitary ball valves can only be used 304SS, 304L or 316, 316L stainless steel, production processing is completed after special treatment to achieve the surface accuracy requirements; ordinary ball valves can be made of cast iron, cast steel, ductile iron, stainless steel, material is more extensive. Because the use of sanitary valves are the environment is very high requirements for sanitary pharmaceutical, food, daily chemical, etc., these products are consumed or directly in contact with the human body, so the production of some of the machinery is required to have a high degree of hygiene.
- Appearance: sanitary ball valve standard electronic polishing, so that the surface is smooth to ensure clean, no media accumulation area, will not produce potential pollution; ordinary ball valve can be customized according to user needs, with main features are in the high-temperature and high-pressure working environment, long service life and flexible mode of operation. Ordinary ball valves are not as smooth and beautiful on the outside and inside as sanitary ball valves, but in many places they cannot be replaced by sanitary ball valves.
- Connection: sanitary ball valves are generally used clamp quick-fit or threaded connection; and ordinary ball valves are connected to flange, threaded, quick-fit, welding and so on.
Main application areas of sanitary ball valves
- In the food industry production process, health requirements are very strict, sanitary ball valves are widely used because of the safety of its material and structure of the easy to clean. It can be used for liquid control in food processing, such as milk, juice, soy sauce and so on.
- In pharmaceutical production, the fluid control requirements are extremely high, sanitary ball valves can ensure the purity of drugs and production process health requirements, widely used in drug production devices and pharmaceutical equipment.
- Chemical industry involves a wide variety of liquids, the valve’s corrosion resistance and sealing performance requirements are high, sanitary ball valves can meet the requirements of a variety of media control, so they are widely used in the chemical industry.
Заключение
The choice of sanitary ball valves or ordinary ball valves should be considered according to the actual demand for working conditions. With the improvement of the production environment and product quality requirements of various industries, sanitary ball valves will have a broader space for development.
