Sleeve-type plug valves are a common type of valve in the industrial fluid control field, and their design features and application scenarios make them stand out among various valve types.

1. Main Characteristics

(1) Superior Sealing Performance

The sleeve-type plug valve features an internal sleeve design that ensures excellent sealing when the valve is in the closed position. The contact surfaces between the sleeve and the plug are sealed with sealing materials to prevent medium leakage and enhance the valve's reliability.

(2) Excellent Fluid Control Capability

The design of the sleeve-type plug valve allows fluid to flow between the plug and the sleeve, enabling precise adjustment of fluid flow and pressure. Its fluid control capability surpasses that of many traditional valve types, making it suitable for applications that require fine regulation.

(3) High Wear Resistance

Due to the larger contact area between the sleeve and the plug, the sleeve-type plug valve exhibits strong wear resistance. It is capable of handling fluids containing solid particles, making it suitable for various harsh operating conditions.

 (4) Corrosion and High-Temperature Resistance

Sleeve-type plug valves can be manufactured using corrosion-resistant and high-temperature materials, making them suitable for fluid control in chemical, petroleum, and other applications involving high temperatures or corrosive media.

(5) Simple Maintenance

The structure of sleeve-type plug valves simplifies maintenance and repair processes. Typically, it only requires regular inspection and replacement of the sleeve and plug, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.

2. Application Fields

(1) Chemical Industry

In the chemical industry, sleeve-type plug valves are used to control the flow and pressure of chemical media. Their excellent sealing performance and corrosion resistance make them outstanding for handling corrosive chemicals.

(2) Oil and Gas Industry

Sleeve-type plug valves play a crucial role in the transportation and processing of oil and gas. They can withstand high-temperature and high-pressure conditions while effectively controlling the flow and pressure of the media.

(3) Pharmaceutical Industry

In the pharmaceutical industry, sleeve-type plug valves are used to control the flow of pharmaceutical liquids. Their excellent sealing performance and corrosion resistance ensure the safety and purity of the liquids during processing.

(4) Food Processing Industry

In the food processing industry, sleeve-type plug valves are used to control the flow of fluids. Their easy-to-clean and maintain characteristics meet the hygiene requirements of the food industry, ensuring the safety and sanitation of the food production process.

(5) Water Treatment Industry

In the water treatment industry, sleeve-type plug valves are used to control the flow of both wastewater and clean water. Their wear-resistant properties make them highly effective in handling water streams containing solid particles.

(6) Metallurgical Industry

Sleeve-type plug valves are also widely used in the metallurgical industry to control the flow of high-temperature molten metals. Their high-temperature and corrosion-resistant properties enable them to handle the harsh conditions present in metallurgical processes.
