Plastic 2-way motorized ball valves provide electric on/off control for water and compatible fluids in automated piping systems. These valves use a UPVC valve body with electric quarter-turn actuation to deliver reliable shut-off and flow control.
The actuator only consumes power during opening and closing cycles. As a result, these valves support energy-efficient operation in automated systems. In addition, the slower actuation speed helps reduce water hammer compared to fast-acting valve types.
Plastic motorized ball valves are well-suited to applications that require corrosion resistance, lightweight installation, and reliable electric flow control.
