5. Resuma
The selection of valve trim of ball valve directly affects its performance and service life. In practical applications, it is necessary to comprehensively consider factors such as fluid characteristics, temperature and pressure conditions, operating requirements and installation environment, and select appropriate valve core, valve seat, seal, and other internal materials and designs. Reasonable selection of valve trim can not only extend the service life of ball valve, but also effectively reduce costs and improve the operating efficiency of system maintenance. In engineering design and procurement, we should fully communicate with valve suppliers and select the most optimized valve solution based on actual working conditions.
