One of the most traditional types of valves is the ball valve, which is made up of a sphere with a hole drilled through it. Ball valves work on a quarter- or 90-turn ratio, and by moving the ball around...
Butterfly valves are widely utilized in many different applications and have been around for a while. Since their initial introduction in the 1930s, a variety of industries have made use of them. The...
The Benefits of Fire Safe Valves One of the most basic yet essential tools for averting disaster is the valve. Valves are a small flap that can be opened or closed to change the flow or intensity of a...
Introduction to Valve Connection Types It strikes me as I stand in the middle of a world where complex networks of piping systems, the beating heart of an industrial symphony, are intertwined, that the...
Introduction: Even though they are very dependable and strong, ball valves can occasionally have issues for a number of reasons, including but not limited to sticking, fluid leakage, corrosion, and...
Introduction Control valves are crucial parts of industrial processes because they control the fluids' level, pressure, and flow. For the system to operate as efficiently, safely, and optimally, the...
As both globe and gate valves are made by valve manufacturers to maintain systems operating as safely and efficiently as possible, they rank among the most often used valves in industrial facilities....
Pressure Seal valves Valves intended for high pressure service—typically above 170 bar—use pressure seal construction. Unlike other constructions where an increase in internal pressure tends...
Cryogenic valves are made to be used in extremely cold environments, as their name would imply. Thus, businesses that use compressed natural gas (CNG) or liquefied natural gas (LNG) are the ones who use...
What is Water Hammer? Water is a phenomenon that can happen in any piping system where media flow is managed by valves. A pressure wave may be produced by the water's momentum when valves close or...
The phenomenon known as "water hammer" stems from the concepts of incompressibility. It happens when a significant amount of fluid flowing through a pipeline suddenly changes direction. The...
Large-scale processing applications requiring fast, leak-proof opening and shutting employ butterfly valves. A particular kind of butterfly valve designed to address the drawbacks of other butterfly valve...
