Applications
Ball valves are used in a wide variety of air conditioning and refrigeration
applications. They can be used for both liquid and gas applications.
This type of valve is commonly used for isolating purposes. All ball valves
are suitable for HCFC and HFC refrigerants, along with their associated
oils. The MWP of most valve sizes also allows them to be used for R410A
and sub-critical CO2 applications.
