Block ball valve
The Valcon VC-KHB series block ball valve offers a robust shut-off solution for the most demanding requirements in hydraulic connection technology. Thanks to continuous mounting holes, an ergonomic handle and floating ball bearings, the block ball valve is maintenance-free, leak-proof – even in vacuum applications – and extremely corrosion-resistant. You can find this high-quality component for your hydraulic lines in our webshop – for safe and efficient fluid technology.
What is a Block Ball Valve?
A block ball valve is an extremely robust shut-off device whose body is manufactured from a solid block of material (block construction). This design gives it higher pressure resistance and stability than multi-part valves.
The Valcon® VC-KHB defines the premium standard here. It was specially developed to safely shut off or release the flow in hydraulic piping systems. Thanks to its compact shape and the well-thought-out fastening technology, it can be mounted vibration-proof even in tight machine rooms.
Advantages of the Valcon® VC-KHB Block Ball Valve
The VC-KHB is more than just an "Open/Closed" switch. Its technical refinements ensure maintenance-free operation and durability under hard conditions.
The highlights of the series:
- Floating Ball: The intelligent ball sealing system ensures absolute tightness not only at high pressure but also in the low pressure and vacuum range.
- Easy to Install: Continuous threaded holes (5 mm) in the body enable simple and stable fastening without additional brackets.
- Corrosion Protection: High-quality galvanization (chromium-6-free) protects the valve permanently against environmental influences.
- Ergonomics: The optimized handle and the precise switching shaft ensure a defined switching feel.
Typical Areas of Application for the Block Ball Valve
Due to its pressure resistance and reliable sealing effect, the VC-KHB is at home in demanding industries:
- Industrial Hydraulics: As a main shut-off valve in power units and presses.
- Mobile Hydraulics: In construction machinery and agricultural technology, where vibrations are the order of the day.
- Control Lines: Precise shut-off of measuring and control circuits.
- Vacuum Applications: Use in systems with negative pressure, where standard valves often draw air.
Selection Criteria & Technical Data of the VC-KHB
For the valve to function safely, it must fit the pipeline. The VC-KHB covers a broad spectrum.
Pay attention to these values during configuration:
- Operating Pressure: Enormous pressure resistance, e.g., up to 500 bar (at tube Ø 8 mm).
- Connection Type: Available for metric tube connections (DIN 2353) or BSP threads.
- Series: Choose between the Light Series (L) or Heavy Series (S) depending on the pressure requirement.
- Flow (DN): The nominal cross-section should correspond to that of the pipeline to avoid throttling losses.
Tip: Use the lateral mounting holes for clean installation in control cabinets or on machine frames.
