What is a Ball Valve? (Definition & Overview)

A ball valve is a mechanical shut-off device that uses a hollow, rotating ball to control the flow of fluids through a pipe. When the ball’s hole is in line with the pipe, flow occurs. A 90° turn of the handle rotates the ball, blocking flow entirely.

It’s the fastest and most reliable way to isolate fluid flow—and is preferred across industries for its tight sealing, easy operation, and robust build.

How Does a Ball Valve Work? (Working Principle & Diagram)

Here’s how a ball valve works in simple steps:

  1. The handle is rotated manually or automatically.
  2. This turns the stem, which is connected to a spherical ball.
  3. The ball has a hole (bore) that either aligns with the pipeline or blocks it.
  4. When open, the hole lets fluid pass.
  5. When closed, the solid side of the ball stops flow.

Simple 1/4-turn = fast shut-off.
Engineers often refer to this using P&ID symbols like:

Ball Valve Symbol: with a bar across (representing the bore)

Advantages of Ball Valves

  • Quick shut-off with 90° turn
  • 100% leak-proof (soft-seated designs)
  • Low pressure drop (full bore types)
  • Easy to automate (electric or pneumatic)
  • Compact, corrosion-resistant designs
  • Suitable for slurries, gases, liquids, and semi-solids

Disadvantages of Ball Valves

  • Not ideal for throttling flow (except V-port)
  • Can wear out under abrasive service
  • Needs compatible seat materials for high-temperature or high-cycle systems

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

A ball inside the valve rotates via handle or actuator. Its hole either allows or blocks flow.

Floating, Trunnion, 3-Way, and Full Bore.

Floating ball is supported by seats. Trunnion ball is fixed and can handle higher pressure.

Ball valves are faster, leak-proof, and better for automation. Gate valves are better for throttling.

Only V-port or segmented ball valves are suitable for flow control.

Typically refers to 2-way, two-piece construction valves used for isolation.
