What is the primary difference between a 'full port' and a 'reduced port' ball valve?
-
A
A full port valve has a bore equal to the pipe ID; a reduced port has a smaller bore that restricts flow
-
B
A full port valve handles higher pressure than a reduced port valve
-
C
A full port valve can be used for throttling; a reduced port is for on/off service only
-
D
A full port valve opens fully in a quarter turn; a reduced port requires multiple turns
