Ball Valves With Bleeder Or Strainer

Explore Tameson’s wide range of manual 2-way brass ball valves with bleeder or strainer from various global manufacturers. A ball valve with a bleeder allows for the draining of condensate and air recharging. The block and bleed ball valve has a drain top that can be mounted on the left or right side of the ball valve. Often, these ball valves are used on expansion vessels. The drain tap, or port, can also be used to drain the downstream line when the valve is in the closed position.

A ball valve with a strainer is an economical replacement for two ball valves and a strainer. The 2-way function of a ball valve with bleeder means it has two ports, an inlet and an outlet, and a ball with a bore in it. They are operated by a manual hand lever to turn the ball 90 degrees. Simply turn the handle perpendicular to the pipe to close it and parallel to the pipe to open it. This allows for easy visual identification on whether a two-way ball valve is open or closed.

The brass housing makes the ball valves with bleeder suitable for a wide variety of media, such as water, neutral, gaseous, non-aggressive, liquid media, mineral oils, and compressed air. Brass ball valves are more resistant to contaminated media compared to other types of housing material and provides reliable sealing even in the case of dirty media. The brass housing also makes them economical and able to withstand high pressure, high temperature, and high flow rate applications. The threaded connection ports enable easy installation. Manual 2-way brass ball valves with bleeder or strainer are an economical choice that provides a simple and reliable operation, long service life, and is suitable for a wide range of applications.

The ball valve with strainer provides filtering of the media, easy installation, and easy maintenance. The ball valve strainer's filter can be replaced when the valve is connected to the system, as the outlet port depressurizes after closing the valve.
