● The valve body, made from high-quality materials, includes a ball test fitting and has its middle flane and neck bolted together.
● The valve seat has a single-piston effect for both upstream and downstream flow and features a Double Block and Bleed (DBB) function.
● Between the valve seat and the ball, there are three types of seals: a traditional soft seal, a triangular ring seal, and a hard seal.
● The valve stem includes safety features to prevent it from being ejected if operated improperly.
● The valve is equipped with devices to enhance fire safety and prevent static buildup.
● Emergency sealant injection ports are available for the valve seat seal and stem seal. These are used for repairs in case of leakage, and each port has a grease valve and a check valve.
● The valve has both drainage and venting ports. The drain valve is at the bottom for emptying and venting the cavity, and the vent valve is at the top for cleaning.
● This valve is compatible with various types of actuators, including manual, electric, and hydraulic.
● Valves with welded ends can have their materials adjusted to match the pipeline, ensuring proper welding. Sleeve extensions prevent interference with sealing during welding.
● Underground valves have extended stems to make above-ground operation possible, with accessible grease, drainage, and venting facilities. The stem height is customizable.

The slow-closing check valve opens and closes the valve disc automatically due to the flow of the medium, and is a type of automatic valve used to prevent the backflow of the medium. It is mainly used to prevent backflow of the medium, prevent the reverse rotation of pumps and drive electric motors, and release the medium in containers. The check valve can also be used in pipelines that supply supplementary pressure to auxiliary systems where the pressure may rise above the system pressure.
RAYS' rising stem ball valve is designed to operate without friction between the ball and the seat during opening and to achieve zero leakage when closed. This makes it well-suited for demanding conditions. The valve is made entirely of metal and is fire-resistant, capable of functioning in extreme temperatures ranging from -196°C (320.8°F) to 538°C (1000.4°F). It can handle media with particulates like sand and short fibers, and meets NACE standards for corrosion resistance, ensuring it can resist sulfide stress cracking in harsh environments. The valve also features a self-cleaning mechanism. When the ball is tilted away from the seat, the fluid flows 360° around the ball's sealing surface, effectively removing any debris. This prevents damage from high-speed fluid flows and keeps the sealing area clean. The rising stem ball valve is ideal for various applications including exhaust, fluid transfer, pipeline isolation, bypass, product segmentation, and emergency shutdowns, particularly where high switching frequencies and zero leakage in high temperatures are required.
RAYS manufactures high-quality fully welded ball valves, forged from premium materials with side-mounted balls. The valves are available in two designs: cylindrical and spherical fully welded bodies. RAYS is particularly known for its cylindrical valve bodies.
