Abstract

Valve comprising a valve body having an upstream conduit for the inflow of a fluid and a downstream conduit for the outflow of a fluid, said conduits being substantially aligned along a longitudinal axis (X-X), a rotative ball controlling the fluid passage and having a cavity with axis perpendicular to its rotating axis (Y-Y), a first upstream seat operating in conjunction with said upstream conduit and said rotative ball, a first downstream seat operating in conjunction with said downstream conduit and said rotative ball, a second downstream seat axially arranged between said first downstream seat and said downstream conduit, and an intermediate element axially arranged between said first downstream seat and said second downstream seat and axially moveable between said first downstream seat and said second downstream seat.
