Gate Valve is the most widely used one among all types of valves. Gate Valve, whose disc or wedge moves vertically along the axis of the channel, has the same basic function of other valves, turning on or turning off channels. In the pipeline, it is used as a piece to connect and cut off the media inside. What is worthy to be noted is that an ordinary gate valve usually opens or close pipeline com...

In general, industrial valves don’t have to do a strength test in use. But repaired or corroded body and bonnet should do that. Common media used in valve pressure testing are water, oil, air, steam, nitrogen and so on. And valve pressure test methods of all kinds of industrial valves, including pneumatic, are as follows: 1.For ball valve The pneumatic test of the ball valve should be carried out ...

The ball of the floating ball valve is suspended. Under the pressure of the medium, the ball will move and press against the outlet side of the seal. The floating ball valve is only widely used for medium and low-pressure conditions because the pressure of the medium completely transfers the ball weight to the seal at the outlet. For the same reason, the design of the floating ball valve should fo...

For high-pressure piping systems where multiple pumps are used together, the problem of water hammer in the piping system is even more acute. Water hammer is a pressure wave of the ever-changing flow in a pressure pipe, which is a hydraulic shock caused by a pressure rise or fall due to the change in the fluid flow rate in the pressure pipe. Water hammer is the combined result of the inc...

The biggest difference between a knife gate valve and a flanged gate valve is that gate valve is manufactured according to ANSI , while knife gate valve meets TAPPI Standards. Gate valves are also flanged, wider in size, ANSI pressure rated, and their API leak tightness standards need to be met as well. Gate valves are bi-directional, widely used in fluid applications, and they only come with meta...

What is valve corrosion? Corrosion of valves is usually understood as the damage to the metal materials of the valve caused by the chemical or electrochemical environment. Since the corrosion appears in the spontaneous interaction between the metal and the surrounding environment, the focus of corrosion prevention is how to isolate the metal from the surrounding environment or more use of non...
