Types of Valve You Need to Know
The following are various types of valves with their respective characteristics and how they work:
Gate Valve is this type designed to open and close the flow by means of tightly closed and fully open. Because the system works only open and close, the valve is not suitable for regulating flowrate because it is less accurate in terms of controlling the flow volume in the pipe.
Plug Valve is a type of valve that has the same function as a gate valve by closing or opening the flow as a whole. However, some application of this type of valve is only used to control the flow of gas, such as gas transportation through pipes.
Ball Valve is a type of valve that can be operated on a fluid temperature of -450 ° F to -500 ° F. Ball valve is a type of quick opening valve that only requires 1/4 rotation from a fully closed position to fully open.
Globe valve is a type of valve whose flow in the valve changes direction so that it produces considerable friction even though it is wide open. This type of valve is quite important if it is used for tight closure, especially in the gas stream.
