What Makes Grooved Ball Valve Reduced Port Ideal for Compact Piping Systems?

2025-07-02

        The grooved ball valve with a reduced diameter adopts an integrated short valve body design. Compared with traditional valves, the axial dimension is shortened by more than 30%. YONGYUAN VALVE has optimized the flow channel structure. Under the premise of ensuring the flow requirements, it has further compressed the valve body volume, allowing it to be easily installed in narrow equipment rooms or reserved slots on the wall.


        The groove connection technology of YONGYUAN VALVE breaks the limitations of traditional flange installation. Reduced-diameter valves have standard grooved interfaces and can be connected with clamps. The installation time is reduced by more than 60% compared with flanged valves. Its unique bidirectional sealing structure enables the valve to be installed at any Angle without the need for additional adjustments to the pipeline direction. In a certain data center cooling system upgrade project, the engineering team took advantage of this feature to increase the daily installation volume from 50 to 120, and the construction period was nearly halved.

        Although the volume has decreased, YONGYUAN VALVE has ensured that the performance does not decline by upgrading the materials. The valve body is made of high-strength ductile iron, and the surface of the ball is covered with a nano-scale hard alloy coating, which has increased its wear resistance by three times. The diameter reduction design has been optimized through CFD fluid simulation and can operate stably at a pressure of 16bar under the DN100 specification. At present, this product has been widely applied in fields with high requirements for space and reliability, such as subway ventilation systems and hospital oxygen supply networks.


        Modular design is another highlight of YONGYUAN VALVE's reduced-diameter valves. All sealing components can be replaced online without disassembling the pipeline. The unique quick-opening and closing structure keeps the single maintenance time within 10 minutes, reducing the downtime by 70% compared with traditional valves. During the annual maintenance of a certain chemical industrial park, the customer reported that this design reduced the maintenance labor cost by 45% and the demand for spare parts inventory by 60%.


        YONGYUAN VALVE grooved ball valve reduced-bore type has redefined the technical standards of compact valves through structural innovation and technological breakthroughs. Its comprehensive advantages in space-saving, quick installation, reliable performance and economical maintenance are helping global customers build more efficient and economical pipe network systems. Choosing YONGYUAN VALVE means choosing a future-oriented pipeline solution.
