Ball valves have a low fluid resistance and high CV values, which is dependent on the size of the bore. The ball valves can be easily cleaned and maintained. The valves are easy to fit, repair and are designed in standardised dimensions based on size and pressure ratings.

The ball rotates to 90⁰ or for a quarter turn to open or close the valve. Other specific applications are possible by opening the valve at fixed points of 10⁰, 20⁰, 40⁰ and 45⁰. Most ball valve types are bi-directional and can be rotated in either direction.
