Industrial Valve

There are various types of Industrial valves used in industrial activities that are tailored to their respective designations. Each type of industrial valve has a specific function and working principle.

Here are the various valves with how they work:

1. Gate Valve

Gate valve is a type of valve that is used to open and close the flow by lifting and lowering the closing gate. When the gate is lifted, the flow will open and when the gate is lowered, the flow is closed. This valve is used for a fully open or fully closed position and is not recommended to be used for a partially open position, because it can damage the valve gate.

2. Globe valve

Globe valve has a working principle similar to a gate valve, namely lifting and lowering the disc from its seat to open and close the fluid flow. This type of Industrial Valve is used for throttling valves (regulating the size of the fluid flow).

3. Ball valve

Ball valve is a type of industrial valve with a flow regulator in the form of a solid ball that has a hole in the middle. If the position of the ball hole one axis with the axis of the fluid flow pipe is not parallel or perpendicular, then the valve opens and flow occurs.

However, if the position of the axis of the ball hole is perpendicular to the axis of the pipe, then the valve is closed and the flow will be blocked. This valve only requires turn from fully closed to fully open position.

4. Butterfly Valve

Butterfly valves are generally used for low pressure fluid flow. The design of this type of valve is very simple, that is, there is a disk that can rotate vertically in the middle of the pipe and only rotates turn for full open or fully closed.

Those are some types of industrial valves that are often used. Make sure to choose the right type of industrial valve that will be used. Choose quality industrial products such as industrial valve kaeser, industrial valve kitz, and industrial valve onda which have the best quality.
