Forged Steel Gate Valve Application and Troubleshooting

Applications of forged steel gate valves  Forged steel gate valves are used in different industries for various applications, such as: Advantages of forged steel gate valves  Disadvantages of forged steel gate valves  Troubleshooting forged steel gate valves  The valve is hard to operate  Fluid leakage between the body and the pipe  Leakage between body and … Read more

Forged Steel Gate Valve Types and Working Principle

How does a forged steel gate valve work?  A forged steel gate valve operates by converting rotary motion from the handwheel to linear motion on the valve disc. When the valve operator rotates the handwheel in the clockwise direction, the valve stem rotates in the same direction. Rotation of the handwheel and the stem several … Read more

Forged Steel Gate Valve Structure

What is a forged steel gate valve?  A forged steel gate valve is a gate valve that is made through the forging method. This manufacturing method entails heating a steel material until it becomes hot and soft. The hot material is then shaped using mechanical forces to produce the desired shape. Forged steel gate valve … Read more

High Pressure Gate Valve Types and Working Principle

How does a high-pressure gate valve work?  A high-pressure gate valve operates manually or through automation. The basic working principle remains the same whether the valve is manual or automated: the actuator rotates the stem to start/stop flow. The valve starts when the actuator rotates clockwise for several turns. As such, the stem converts the … Read more

High Pressure Gate Valve Structure

What is a high-pressure gate valve?  A high-pressure gate valve is designed for use in high-pressure applications. This valve is connected to the pipe using bolts and nuts or by using welding. These two methods produce a high-strength joint between the valve and pipe leading to fluid flow without leakage. The valve operates by using … Read more

Flange Globe Valve Application and Trouble Shooting

Flange globe valves are globe valves designed with flanges. The flanges connect the valve to the pipe using bolts and nuts. These valves are robust and mainly used for high-pressure and high-temperature applications. The valve operates by using a manual actuator, or they are operated using an electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic actuator. As such, they … Read more

Flange Globe Valve Types and How It Works

Types of flange globe valves  T-pattern flange globe valve  This valve is also known as a standard pattern valve. The valve design is the most common. It comes with a flat seat to allow the stem and disc to move perpendicular to the flow direction. This design leads to low fluid flow resistance compared to … Read more

Flange Globe Valve Structure

What is a flange globe valve? A flange globe valve is a type of valve that uses linear motion to open and close fluid flow. It stops flow using a component known as disc. The valve is made from high-strength materials such as carbon steel and stainless steel, enhancing its strength for high pressure and … Read more
