\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ball Valve<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Predominantly equipped with quick-acting 90-degree turn handles, these valves use a ball to control flow to provide easy on-off control. Generally accepted by operators to be faster and easier to operate than gate valves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Butterfly Valve<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using a compact design, the butterfly valve is a quick-acting rotary motion valve ideal for tight spaces thanks to its wafer type design. Butterfly valve bodies are offered in many different configurations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check Valve<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Used to prevent backflow, these valves are typically self-activated allowing the valve automatically opens when media passes through the valve in the intended direction and close should flow reverse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gate Valve<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As one of the most common valve types, gate valves use linear motion to start and stop the flow. These are typically not used for flow regulation. Instead, they used in the fully open or closed positions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knife Gate Valve<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Typically used for controlling flow of media containing solids, the knife gate valve features a thin gate controlled through linear action which can cut through materials and create a seal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While not suited for high-pressure implementations, these valves are ideal for use with grease, oils, paper pulp, slurry, wastewater and other media which might obstruct the operation of other valve types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Globe Valve<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Globe valves are typically applied in modulating control operations. Typically avaialable in three body types, T-body (as shown above), Y-Pattern, and Angle body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Needle Valve<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Typically used in small diameter piping systems when fine, accurate flow control is needed, Needle valves get their name from the point on a conical disc used within.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pinch Valve<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Often used for handling solid materials, slurries and liquids with suspended solids, pinch valves use a linear motion. Typically Pinch Valves feature an internal sleeve to isolate the media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plug Valve<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using a quick-acting quarter-turn valve handle, these valves control flow using tapered or cylindrical plugs. They provide some of the best ratings when tight shutoff is essential and are reliable in high-pressure or high-temperature environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pressure Relief Valve<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Used to help improve safety, these valves are spring-automated and will help to return a system to the desired pressure during over-pressure events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
