– What are Orbit Valves?: Orbit Valves are a type of valve used in the oil and gas industry, characterized by their tilt-and-turn operation that eliminates seal rubbing, which is the primary cause of valve failure.
– What are Ball Valves?: Ball Valves are a type of valve that uses a spinning disk to regulate the flow of oil or gas, divided into sections that can be opened and closed independently.
– Key Features of Orbit Valves:
   – Rising stem ball valve design
   – Tilt-and-turn operation eliminates seal rubbing

   – Available in various materials, sizes, and trims to meet specific requirements
– Benefits of Orbit Valves:
   – Zero leakage and frequent operation
   – Easy, low-torque valve operation
   – Long-term reliable performance
   – High integrity and long service life
– Applications of Orbit Valves:
   – Oil and gas industry
   – Exploration, gathering, production, transportation, and process applications
   – Molecular sieve systems in switching service
