High Pressure DN10 DN15 Titanium Two-Piece Ball Valve Gr1 Gr2 for Water Supply Treatment

Titanium ball valves are becoming increasingly popular in water supply treatment systems due to their exceptional resistance to corrosion, high strength, and lightweight properties. When designed for high-pressure applications such as those seen in water treatment processes, titanium ball valves can deliver reliable performance for many years with minimal maintenance. The DN10 DN15 Titanium Two-Piece Ball Valve in Grade 1 (Gr1) and Grade 2 (Gr2) is a top choice for systems requiring precision flow control and enhanced durability.

Overview of Titanium Ball Valves Gr1 and Gr2

1. Titanium Grade 1 (Gr1)

• Purity and Corrosion Resistance: Grade 1 titanium is commercially pure, offering excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in applications that involve contact with water, air, and most chlorides. It is commonly used in systems where high corrosion resistance is required but extreme strength is not as critical.
• Mechanical Properties: Gr1 offers good flexibility and is lightweight while still maintaining a reasonable tensile strength, making it ideal for lower-pressure water systems or systems where weight reduction is beneficial.
• Application: Ideal for standard water treatment systems where the water is not heavily treated with corrosive chemicals or subject to extreme pressure.

2. Titanium Grade 2 (Gr2)

• Strength and Durability: Grade 2 titanium, also known as the workhorse titanium alloy, offers better strength than Gr1 and is commonly used in slightly more demanding environments. It can withstand moderate pressure and harsh chemical environments while still providing excellent corrosion resistance.
• Corrosion Resistance: Gr2 is highly resistant to chlorides, seawater, acidic environments, and many industrial chemicals, making it ideal for water supply treatment systems exposed to chemically treated water or slightly corrosive conditions.
• Application: It’s a great option for water treatment systems that operate at medium pressures, especially when higher strength and durability are required over Gr1.

High Pressure Capability (DN10 and DN15 Sizes)

• DN10 and DN15 Sizes: These sizes are commonly used in medium-pressure systems. DN10 refers to a 10mm nominal diameter, and DN15 refers to a 15mm nominal diameter, both of which are standard for smaller, high-pressure systems in water supply and treatment.
• High Pressure Resistance: Titanium ball valves designed for high-pressure applications can handle pressures well beyond the typical range of conventional materials. These valves can endure pressures typically ranging from PN10 (10 bar) to PN25 (25 bar) and higher, making them suitable for various stages of water treatment processes where high-pressure regulation is necessary.

Two-Piece Design Benefits

The two-piece design refers to the valve body being split into two separate components, which can be assembled and disassembled as needed. This design is especially beneficial in water treatment systems for the following reasons:

• Ease of Maintenance: With a two-piece design, it’s easy to inspect, clean, and replace parts of the valve without having to replace the entire unit. This helps minimize downtime and reduces maintenance costs.
• Leakproof Operation: The two-piece structure ensures that the sealing is tight and leakproof, providing a reliable seal even in high-pressure applications.
• Flexibility: This design allows for easier repairs and replacements, as well as a more compact structure, which is ideal for systems with limited space.

Corrosion Resistance

One of the most important features of titanium ball valves is their corrosion resistance. Titanium is known for its exceptional ability to resist corrosion in harsh environments, especially in water treatment plants where exposure to chemicals, chlorides, and acidic or alkaline substances is common.

• Chloride Resistance: Titanium's ability to resist chloride corrosion makes it particularly valuable in seawater desalination, where water contains high concentrations of salt.
• Acid and Alkali Resistance: Titanium also resists acidic and alkaline conditions, which are often found in water treatment processes where chemical additives are used for disinfection, pH control, and mineral removal.

Applications of High-Pressure Titanium Ball Valves in Water Supply Treatment

1. Water Treatment Plants:

   • These valves are ideal for use in filtration, chlorination, and distribution systems where high precision and durable performance are required.
   • They can withstand the various chemicals used in water treatment, ensuring that the system remains efficient and free from leaks.

2. Desalination Plants:

   • Seawater desalination requires components that can withstand saltwater, making titanium ball valves the perfect choice. These valves can handle the corrosive nature of seawater while maintaining a tight seal and providing reliable flow control.

3. Industrial Water Systems:

   • Industrial water systems, including those used in power plants, manufacturing facilities, and chemical plants, require high-performance valves that can resist aggressive water treatments and high-pressure operations.

4. Pumping Stations:

   • Titanium valves play a vital role in regulating the flow of water in pumping stations, ensuring that the water is distributed at the correct pressure and flow rate.

5. Corrosive Water Environments:

   • These valves are ideal for systems exposed to chemically treated or contaminated water, where corrosion-resistant components are needed to ensure long-term reliability and minimal maintenance.

Advantages of Gr1 and Gr2 Titanium Ball Valves for Water Treatment

Conclusion

The High Pressure DN10 DN15 Titanium Two-Piece Ball Valve in Gr1 and Gr2 grades is an excellent solution for water supply treatment systems that require durability, corrosion resistance, and precise flow control. Gr1 is ideal for standard water treatment applications with moderate corrosive environments, while Gr2 provides superior strength and resistance, making it suitable for systems exposed to slightly more aggressive conditions.

Both titanium grades offer long-term performance, minimal maintenance, and high reliability, making them ideal for water treatment facilities, desalination plants, industrial water systems, and more. By choosing these high-pressure titanium valves, operators can ensure their systems remain efficient, leak-free, and durable over time.
