How To Use The Control Valves

When we need to bring modifications to the material flow or to the pressure level, we can simply use the control valves. The name derives from their own characteristics, and these are the round bodies and the linear motion. Also, because of their design, control valves, can also be called proportional valves. These valves have the advantage that they can be used in different applications of the industry.

There are many types of control valves. Among these various types, there are the globe, knife or gate, needle, butterfly, ball, pinch, diaphragm, and the ball valves. They are used in industry to regulate the fluid material flow in both on and off sequences of the throttling service. The gate or knife valves are the most common among all the control valve types. In this case, a flat closure device will slide into the liquid flow stream, to shut it down. There are two types of gate control valves. These are the parallel gate valves, which use a flat disc in form of a gate, between the seats, and the wedge-shaped valves. Also, the diaphragm valves are very familiar and easy to use. These valves ca separate the flow stream from the closure element. These valves are a little bit like the pinch valves, except the fact that they don't pinch the liner in order to shut it off, they simply push a diaphragm at the bottom of the valve body, to provide shut-off. The needle control valve, as its name suggests it, has a tapered, slender point at one end of the valve, which is lowered in order to block the liquid material flow. The stop-cock valves, also called plug control valves, are probably the oldest valves used by our society. History says that even the Romans used it. Today, the cock valve remains the most common type of valves, and it is used all around the world. The things that make it so common are the affordable cost, and the use of both sequences of the throttling process. All these types of valves are used in sanitary, irrigation, gas or air, refrigeration, medical and other various applications.

When buying for a control valve, you need to follow some aspects. The diameter, the operating temperature and the working pressure are the most important aspects you need to keep in mind. The material that the control valves are made of is very important too.
