In seawater piping systems, globe valves can be used to control and isolate fluid flow, provided that the materials and corrosion protection design are suitable for seawater service conditions. Seawater contains a high concentration of chloride ions and dissolved oxygen. If the valve material is not properly selected, corrosion can occur rapidly. Therefore, when globe valves are used in sea...
