Pneumatic Operated Metal Ball Valves
Pneumatic Operated Metal Ball Valve - 1362, 1363, Series
SUDE Pneumatic Operated Ball Valves are high-performance, quarter-turn rotary valves engineered for reliable shut-off, precise flow control, mixing, and diverting applications across a wide range of industries. These valves incorporate precision-machined floating or trunnion-mounted balls combined with robust pneumatic actuators, ensuring bubble-tight sealing, smooth operation, low operating torque, and long service life.
The product range includes Pneumatic Operated 2-Way and 3-Way Ball Valves, Butt-Weld, I-Line, and Sanitary Clamp Metallic Ball Valves, as well as special hygienic and zero-bacteria designs for critical applications. Designed for automation-ready integration, SUDE pneumatic ball valves provide a superior alternative to conventional gate, globe, or solenoid valves in high-cycle, continuous-duty, and harsh operating environments.
Manufactured using Carbon Steel, SS304, SS316 / SS316L, and fitted with advanced PTFE or reinforced soft seats, these valves deliver exceptional reliability, versatility, and low maintenance across industrial automation, process control, water, oil, gas, steam, chemical, and hygienic applications.

Design & Construction:
Precision-machined floating or trunnion-mounted balls combined with pneumatic actuators provide bubble-tight sealing, smooth quarter-turn operation, and long service life. Designed for automation-ready integration and continuous-duty industrial environments.
Working Principle:
Working Principle
When compressed air is supplied to the pneumatic actuator, it converts air pressure into rotary motion, rotating the valve stem and ball by 90° (quarter-turn).
Open Position
The ball bore aligns with the pipeline, allowing unrestricted flow.
Closed Position
The ball rotates perpendicular to the flow path, completely blocking the media and ensuring tight shut-off.
3-Way Operation
L-Port or T-Port ball configuration enables mixing or diverting flow between multiple pipelines.
Modulating Control (Optional)
A positioner-controlled actuator allows throttling up to 60° for accurate flow regulation.
Automation & Control Options:
- Control Modes: On/Off, Modulating (via Positioner), Inching
- Actuator Types: Double Acting, Spring Return (Fail-Safe)
- Air Control: Solenoid Valve (3/2, 5/2), Air Filter Regulator (FRL)
- Feedback Systems: Limit Switch Box, Position Transmitter (4–20 mA / 0–10 V)
- Position Control: Valve Positioner, PID Controller (PT-100 Integration)
- Communication: MODBUS / PLC / SCADA Integration (via positioner)
