Electric Brass Ball Valves

Explore Tameson's wide range of 2-way brass electric ball valves from leading global manufacturers. A 2-way electric ball valve has two ports - an inlet and an outlet - and a ball with a bore. An electric actuator turns the ball 90° from open to closed (or closed to open), which is why these valves are also called quarter-turn ball valves, shut-off valves, or electric open-close valves. A 2-way electric ball valve consists of two main components: the electric actuator and the ball valve.

For easy installation, 2-way electric ball valves are available with different connection styles, including threaded and flanged ends. Threaded valves are the most common, since they simply screw into existing pipework.

Brass is a copper-zinc alloy known for its strength and resistance to contaminated media, making it a reliable, low-maintenance choice for most non-aggressive media like water, gas, oils, and compressed air. However, brass is not suitable for salt water or distilled water, as it can suffer from dezincification, a process that weakens the material over time.

Electric ball valves let you control flow remotely or automate it as part of a larger control system. They're commonly used to control water flow or in heating applications, and in HVAC systems, they're often used as zone valves to control flow to individual zones and improve energy efficiency.
