Control valves are an essential part of any piping unit. The basic function of these valves is to manage the flow of medium through different piping areas of a system. Ball and plug valves are two types of control valves that have similar functions and ar

Compared with ball valves, gate valves require multiple turns to fully open. The valve is not suitable for throttling or control, because partial opening will cause damage to the gate and wear of the valve seat. In addition, some valve closures can cause

The assembly, start-up, and maintenance of gate valves require a lot of space.

These shut-off valves must not be used for on/off service because it is impossible to achieve a tight seal. The disc in the valve can be completely removed from the flow path, or the flow path can be completely closed.

This kind of gate valve is more flexible, because its gate can move up or down, there is no obstacle to the flow of fluid or gas, thus ensuring less friction.

The gate valve is designed for fully open or fully closed service. They are installed in the pipeline as isolation valves and should not be used as control or regulating valves.

The stop valve opens and closes the valve with the help of a plug-shaped disc, which is tightly fixed in the valve.

You should store the valve on the floor in a clean, dry indoor area. Protect the valve from extreme temperatures and humidity, as well as exposure to excessive dust, humidity, vibration, deformation, sunlight and ozone.

Ball valves are valued for their long service life and excellent performance even after many years of use. Inside the ball valve, the ball is usually drilled from one end to the other, and is usually made of brass, chrome brass, or stainless steel. A leve

This is the connection from the actuator to the valve, which provides the driving force. The stem of the actuator control valve can be smooth, and the stem of the manual control valve can be threaded.

The main difference between these two types is the way they are closed. The stop valve uses a plug (stem) that closes against the flow, while the ball valve has a gate (ball) that can close the entire flow. The stop valve is suitable for adjusting the flo

The gate valve has a closing/closing mechanism. There is an upward internal gate device that allows the medium to flow and closes the valve downward. A distinctive feature of the gate valve is its straight passage, which reduces pressure loss and is easy

The working principle of the stop valve is the vertical movement of the valve disc away from the valve seat. So when the valve is closed, it will cause the space between the disc and the seat ring to close. This is why these valves are used to start, stop

There are many types of gate valves, such as full bore gate valves, parallel disc gate valves, solid wedge gate valves, flexible wedge gate valves, split wedge gate valves, vertical stem gate valves, and non-vertical stem gate valves.

For decades, globe valves have been considered the industry standard for control valves. They are designed with a stem that moves up and down inside the valve to control flow. They are usually used in hot and cold water coils, and larger models are usuall
