Segment Ball Valve
At WOGS, we supply high-quality segment ball valves designed for accurate flow control, tight shutoff, and efficient throttling across a wide range of industrial applications. Combining the benefits of ball and control valves, segment ball valves feature a notched V-shaped ball (or segment) that provides excellent control characteristics, making them ideal for modulating flow as well as on/off service.
Segment ball valves are widely used in industries such as pulp and paper, chemical processing, power generation, wastewater treatment, and oil and gas, where precise control and reliability are critical.
What Is a Segment Ball Valve?
A segment ball valve, also known as a V-port or V-ball valve, uses a partially spherical ball with a V-shaped notch to regulate flow. As the valve rotates, the segment allows for gradual and precise flow modulation, offering a nearly equal percentage control curve. This makes segment ball valves a preferred solution for process control applications that require both throttling and isolation capabilities.
