Beyond the Basics: Streamlining Flow Control with Swagelok® Actuated Ball Valves

Simplify your ball valve selection with the Swagelok Actuated Ball Valve Solution.

Actuated valve solutions from Swagelok are built around your application, your media, and your cycle requirements. Watch the full video to explore product options, accessories, and configurations. 

Basic ball valve operation is simple: align the bore with your tubing for full-flow or turn it 90 degrees to shut it off. But automating that function with Swagelok® actuated ball valve assemblies gives your operations extra versatility, precision, and efficiency.

Switching from manual to automated flow control allows you to optimize cycle times, enhance plant safety, and lower operational overhead across demanding applications in oil and gas, chemical processing, power generation, and research facilities. 

Built Around Your Specific Application 

No two fluid systems operate under the exact same parameters. Swagelok actuated valve assemblies are designed to meet your specific application, including media, operating pressure, temperature, and cycle requirements.

Our local configuration and assembly capabilities cover a broad range of proven ball valve designs:

• 2-Piece & 3-Piece Ball Valves: Including general-purpose and special-application series like the trusted 40 Series and 60 Series.

• FKB Series Ball Valves: High-performance ball valve options designed to handle high-pressure and demanding application environments.

• Low-E Certified Options: Available when your facility requires low-emissions compliance without sacrificing leak-tight performance.

Flexible Actuation and System Integration

Pairing the right valve with the right actuator ensures consistent performance and extends overall system life. Complete, integrated actuation packages integrate seamlessly into existing control setups:
