The Hayward electric actuated plastic ball valve is a perfect combination of a super durable True Union Ball Valve body and a new-generation Electric Actuator. This is an indispensable piece for factories aiming for comprehensive automation
1. Structure and Operating Principle
Structure
The valve consists of 5 main components:
Valve Body: Usually made of plastics such as PVC, UPVC, CPVC, or PPR, which offer good corrosion resistance, are lightweight, and durable. It functions as a supporting frame for other valve parts, forming a conduit for liquids or gases to pass through.
Ball: A spherical component with a center hole, made of plastic. It acts as a gate to regulate flow; when the ball rotates, the hole aligns with the pipe to allow flow to pass.
Valve Stem: Connects the actuator to the ball to help the ball rotate according to the motor's command.
Movement Assembly: Includes the transmission mechanism, reduction gear, and electric motor.
Transmission Mechanism: Used to transfer motion from the motor to the valve stem.
Electric Motor: The component that provides energy to rotate the valve stem.
Reduction Gear: Helps reduce the motor's rotation speed and increases torque to meet valve operation requirements.
Control Unit: Used to control the electric motor, which can be buttons, switches, or automatic controllers using PLC or SCADA. The electrically operated actuator allows for remote control, enhancing the automation of flow control through the ball valve.
The Hayward electric actuated plastic ball valve operates based on the basic principle of a traditional ball valve: rotating the ball to open or close the flow. The main difference is that operation is fully automated using a power source instead of manual handling.
On/Off Control Motor: When powered, the motor rotates the ball valve to switch states between fully closed and fully open. The valve stops automatically when it reaches its limit position thanks to an integrated limit switch. This type is suitable for simple applications requiring only opening or closing.
Modulating (Linear) Control Motor: Unlike the On/Off type, the modulating motor allows for precise flow regulation. By sending an input signal from 4mA to 20mA, you can control the ball valve to rotate from 0 to 90 degrees to adjust the flow as desired. This is suitable for systems requiring high precision.
Hayward Flow Control (USA) is a global brand for thermoplastic valves and flow control equipment. The EATBH series distributed by Origin Pipe offers outstanding advantages compared to traditional metal valves:
Absolute Corrosion Resistance: With high-quality PVC/CPVC materials, the valve is completely inert to chemicals, acids, and salt, solving rust problems common in cast iron/steel valves.
True Union Design: Allows for quick disassembly and maintenance of the pipeline without cutting the pipe, maximizing savings on downtime.
Powerful ECP Actuator: The motor operates smoothly with high torque, ensuring accurate performance over thousands of cycles.
