Ball valve

A ball valve is a type of quarter-turn valve that controls the flow of fluids by opening, closing, or regulating passage through a rotating ball with a hole in it. The handle is typically perpendicular to the valve body when closed and parallel when open, providing easy operation and clear indication of the valve's status. Ball valves are versatile and widely used in various industries due to their reliability, low-pressure drop, and leak-free operation.
