<p>#CMT# #/CMT# The valve (10) has a valve housing (16) comprising an outlet arranged at an end of the housing, and a plug valve (20) for operating a ball-shaped plug that stays in effective connection with the plug valve. An outer side of the plug has a projection for engaging into a hole of the housing and into a hole of the plug valve. A continuous groove is formed on the outer side of the plug for accommodating a sealing ring that works in a sealing manner against an inner surface of the housing. The groove has a wall section that runs parallel to a main axis of the ball valve. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Ball valve for a container i.e. intermediate bulk container, utilized in a large packaging unit for transporting and storing fluids. Can also be used for transporting and storing powder. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The outer side of the plug has the projection for engaging into the hole of the housing and into the hole of the plug valve, thus enabling the ball valve to have sufficient tightness and to be manufactured in a simple and cost-effective manner. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a top perspective view of a ball valve. 10 : Ball valve 12 : Outlet connector 14 : Container 16 : Valve housing 20 : Plug valve.</p>
