Electric ball valves are crucial actuating units in industrial automation control systems. They utilize electricity as the power source to drive the ball to rotate, thereby achieving the on-off control of pipelines or the distribution of media.

• Building automation: Central air conditioning's hot and cold water systems, fire protection systems.
• Energy and water treatment: Remote-controlled water supply networks, sewage treatment plants.
• Fine chemicals: Processes requiring precise ingredient proportioning and flow regulation.
• Power industry: Boiler feed water, chemical water treatment systems.
• Oil and gas: Remote stations without gas sources or those requiring remote control.

• Prioritize electric: No air source available, large torque required, precise regulation needed, control points are extremely scattered and distant.
• Prioritize pneumatic: Existing air source available, quick opening and closing required, flammable and explosive environment, weak on-site maintenance capability, cost-sensitive.

Electric ball valves are precise executors of "electric control of flow" in automation control systems. By converting electrical energy into mechanical energy, they enable remote, precise and centralized control of valves. Although their response speed and initial investment may not be as good as pneumatic solutions, they offer irreplaceable solutions in applications without air sources, requiring high torque, high-precision regulation and complex system integration. With the development of Industry 4.0 and smart factories, electric ball valves, especially those with bus control, are playing an increasingly core role.
