A Breakdown of Industrial Valve Types Valves are arguably the workhorse of piping systems. There are many different types of industrial valves that perform countless jobs from isolating to regulating flow in a variety of different industries, from ball and globe valves used in the power industry to butterfly valves in pharmaceutical processing to gate valves in oil and gas production. While valves all play similar roles, it’s in their differences that they shine – ball valves help regulate flow, check valves prevent backflow, and gate valves are ideal for high temperatures and pressures. Today we’ll take a closer look at a few of the most common types of valves: ball, butterfly, check, gate, and globe valves. What are Ball Valves? Ball valves are a compact, cost-efficient, and low maintenance quarter-turn valve. Inside the valve is a ball with a hole in it. When this valve is open, the hole…

Global Industrial Valves Market to Reach $92.3 Billion by 2026 Industrial valves are mechanical or electromechanical devices intended to control, divert and regulate pressure and flow of fluids by opening, blocking or closing fluid passage.

Valve positioner is an important accessory used in pneumatic valve to adjust flow. It is usually used with pneumatic actuator. It can control valve opening by receiving the signal of 4-20mA in controller or control system, so as to control the process parameters of pipeline medium accurately. Valve positioner is composed of pneumatic actuator, and then connected with various automatic control units or valves. After debugging and installation, it is combined into pneumatic regulating valve valve, which is used in various industrial automation process control fields. Valve positioner can be divided into pneumatic valve positioner, electrical valve positioner and intelligent valve positioner according to structure. [valve positioner installation process] 1. The height (H) of the shaft of the general pneumatic actuator can be divided into three types: 20, 30 and 50mm. After confirming the height of the actuator shaft, assemble the bracket according to the picture below.     2….

The rise of the industry has brought us many entrepreneurial and employment opportunities. For example, due to the sharp increase in labor costs, more and more customers have begun to choose pneumatic, electric and other automated valves. Most of them are supplied to the machinery manufacturing industry. The booming business of related machinery manufacturing has also increased sales for us. This phenomenon is like a vine. The growth of a vine benefits the whole vine. Those who are familiar with valves know this, an important advantage of automation is to liberate manual labor, improve production efficiency, and enable machinery and equipment to automatically operate or process control in accordance with pre-set procedures or commands without human intervention. , Its goal is “stable, accurate and fast.” In response to this information, the automated valve equipment launched on the market largely met the needs of the market, cleared the obstacles in the development…

1. Energy Industry For a long time, the energy industry’s demand for valves has maintained a solid and stable growth rate. The total power generation of thermal and nuclear power plants built around the world is 2679030MW, the power generation of the United States is 743391MW, and the power generation of new power plants in other countries in the world is 780,000MW, which will increase by 40% in the next few years. Europe, South America, Asia, especially China’s energy market will become a new growth point for the valve market. 2. Chemical industry The chemical industry ranks first in the industry with an output value of more than 1.5 trillion US dollars, and it is also one of the largest demand markets for valves. The chemical industry mostly needs industrial valves with mature designs, high processing quality and rare materials. 3. Oil and gas industry In North America and some developed countries, there…

The high-pressure and high-temperature gate valve is a common cut-off valve. Such a valve can directly cut off the medium in the pipeline, but it cannot be used for flow adjustment. This kind of valve has strong adaptability and can be used in various pressure and temperature environments. So what are the working principles and advantages of this type of valve? working principle The high pressure and high temperature gate valve of the upper pot valve adopts a compact structure. The pressure self-tightening structure can ensure a good application effect, and there are elastic splints inside, and the branch pipes on both sides can be directly used as welding connections, so that subsequent installations More convenient. The cobalt-based cemented carbide is used for spray welding on the valve seat sealing surface, so it can ensure good wear resistance and also ensure the sealing effect. In addition, the surface of the valve stem is also treated with corrosion…

In the development of the national economy, industry is the top priority of the economy and the foundation of economic development.
