Acoustic emission method (AE) can be used for the diagnosis of machine parts or apparatus such as, for example, ball valves. This paper presents the methodology and research results of ball valve in fresh water systems. The opening angle of the valve was changed during the research. The flow of water was measured by a magnetically inductive flowmeter. The research was carried out on a laboratory test stand using an acoustic emission set made by Vallen Inc. This set included: 4 channel signal recorder AMSY 6, two measurement modules ASIP-2/S, preamplifier with a frequency range 20 kHz – 1 MHz and the strengthening of 34 dB and AE signal measurement sensor type VS 150M, with a frequency range 100 – 450kHz. The obtained from the AE-System made by Vallen were compared with the results of the AE-System made by Physical Acoustics (PAC). The PAC system includes preamplifier USB AE Node, type 1283 with bandpass 20 kHz – 1 MHz, AE-Sensor R6D, computer with AE Win for USB Version E5.32 software. During the study, the acoustic emission (AE) generated by flowing water was recorded. The following parameters were determined: amplitude, number of events – hits, the effective value of the signal (RMS). Analysis of the results showed that within a specific range of opening angle of the valve the value of the generated acoustic emission in flowing water increases. This is probably associated with the occurrence of cavitation within the valve. This is an undesirable phenomenon and that these opening angles of ball valve should be avoided in the normal operation.
