Types of Valves

• Gate valves are ideal for on/off control and are used in various applications, including water supply systems, wastewater treatment, and oil pipelines. They offer low friction loss and excellent sealing properties.

• Globe valves are used for regulating flow and are suitable for applications requiring throttling, such as in the chemical industry and HVAC systems. They provide good shut-off capability and precise flow control.

• Ball valves are known for their quick and easy control of flow and are widely used in the oil and gas industry, food processing, and water distribution. They are durable, easy to operate, and have minimal leakage.

Key Considerations for Valve Selection

​

• Material Compatibility: Select valves made from materials resistant to the fluid or gas being handled to prevent corrosion and degradation.

• Pressure and Temperature Ratings: Choose valves designed to withstand the operating conditions of your system to guarantee durability and reliability.

• Flow Capacity: Match the valve's flow capacity to the required flow rate to avoid excessive pressure drops and maintain efficiency.

• Operational Ease: Opt for valves that are simple to operate and maintain, especially in critical or hard-to-access locations.

• Specific Application Needs: Consider unique requirements such as hygienic standards or fire safety based on the intended use of the valve.
