🏭 Optimising Flow, Minimising Risk: Discover The Power of Cavity Filled Ball Valves.

What are Cavity Filled Ball Valves – and When/Where Should You Use Them?

These Ball Valves are best suited for applications where preventing contamination, maintaining hygiene, or handling specific media (like viscous fluids or slurries) is crucial.
They’re something not everyone in the industry is familiar with – so what exactly are they?

Inside a standard ball valve, there’s usually a small cavity between the ball and the body. In normal use, media can get trapped in this space – which might not be a big deal for clean fluids, but it’s a real problem for viscous, hardenable, or hazardous media.
Left untreated, it can lead to build-up, contamination, or valve failure.

Cavity fillers solve this by eliminating the void, using seats that completely fill the space between the ball and body. That means:

🚫 No media entrapment
🧽 Easier cleaning and maintenance
⚠️ Reduced risk of contamination
🥼 Ideal for food, pharma, or chemical applications
