Content and objectives

In the GEMÜ product training course "Ball valves", you will acquire practical expertise on the design, function and application of modern ball valves. You will learn how design, sealing systems and actuator variants interact - and what role they play in safe, reliable and media-compatible process control. Whether as a refresher or for targeted skills development: This training provides the basis for well-founded decisions and safe handling of ball valves in an industrial environment.

Basic principles of ball valves

Functional principle

You will learn how ball valves work - from media routing to sealing behavior. We will show you how design and material selection contribute to safe, leak-free and efficient process control.


Product advantages

Using real application examples, we illustrate the advantages that ball valves offer in various industries - for example, through simple handling, robust design or drive options that can be automated.

Design and components of ball valves

Detailed analysis of the valve structure

You will gain an insight into the key components of a ball valve - including the body, ball, stem, seals, actuator and connection variants. We explain how these elements are coordinated with each other and what effects they have on maintenance, control behaviour and media routing.


Safety functions and limits of use

You will learn which safety functions are available, how ball valves react to media changes or pressure peaks and where the technological limits lie.


Special variants

During the training course, you will learn how ball valves can be designed for special requirements - for example in hygienic applications with a dead space-free design, special connections or customised stem seals.

Applications and areas of use

Industry-specific use cases

Ball valves are used in many industries, including chemicals, food processing, water treatment and pharmaceuticals. We show the specific advantages they offer in these processes - for example, for fast media release or automated control applications.


Technical selection criteria

You will learn what is important when making a selection - from temperature, pressure and media properties to cleanability and industry-specific approvals (e.g. FDA, EHEDG, ATEX).

Make confident decisions with knowledge – Why your participation is worthwhile
