There are many types of valves, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Below are the advantages and disadvantages of five major valves, including gate valves, butterfly valves, ball valves, globe valves, and plug valves. 1. Gate valve Gate valve refers to a valve where the closing element (gate) moves vertically along the channel axis. 1.1 Advantages ① Low fluid resistance, small torque r...

Difference A safety valve is a special valve in which the opening and closing parts are in a normally closed state under external force. When the pressure of the medium in the equipment or pipeline increases beyond the specified value, the medium is discharged outside the system to prevent the pressure of the medium in the pipeline or equipment from exceeding the specified value. Safety valves bel...

1. Selection instructions for gate valve In general, gate valves should be preferred. Gate valves are not only suitable for media such as steam and oil, but also for media containing granular solids and high viscosity, and are suitable for valves in venting and low vacuum systems. For media containing solid particles, the gate valve body should have one or two purge holes. For low-temperature medi...

Working principle of globe valves Assuming there is a water supply pipeline with a cover, water is injected from the bottom of the pipeline and discharged towards the direction of the pipe mouth, and the cover of the outlet pipe mouth is equivalent to the closing part of the globe valve. If you lift the pipe cover up with your hand, the water will be discharged outward. If you cover the pipe cover...

Metal valves can be said to be the most susceptible key component structure to corrosion failure in engineering equipment. Usually, the sealing surfaces, valve stems, diaphragms, small springs, and other valve components of metal valves are made of first-class materials. The valve body, valve cover, etc. are made of secondary or tertiary materials. Valves used for high-pressure, highly toxic, flam...

1. Non rising stem gate valve: The stem nut is located inside the valve body and in direct contact with the medium. When opening and closing the gate, rotate the valve stem to achieve this. The advantage of this structure is that the height of the gate valve remains constant, so the installation space is small, making it suitable for gate valves with large diameters or limited installation space. ...
