– 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.
