  • What is the Needle valve

    A needle valve is a type of valve having a small port and a threaded, needle-shaped plunger. It allows precise regulation of flow, although it is generally only capable of relatively low flow rates.Construction and operationAn instrument needle valve uses a tapered pin to gradually open a space ...
  • What is the Gate valve

    A gate valve, also known as a sluice valve, is a valve which opens by lifting a round or rectangular gate/wedge out of the path of the fluid. The distinct feature of a gate valve is the sealing surfaces between the gate and seats are planar, so gate valves are often used when a straight-line flow of fluid and mi...
  • What is the Control valve

    A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller.[1] This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure, temperature, and liquid leve...
  • What is the Globe valve

    A globe valve, different from ball valve, is a type of valve used for regulating flow in a pipeline, consisting of a movable disk-type element and a stationary ring seat in a generally spherical body.[1]Globe valves are named for their spherical body shape with the two halves of the body...
  • What is the Butterfly valve

    A butterfly valve is a valve which can be used for isolating or regulating flow. The closing mechanism takes the form of a disk.Principle of OperationOperation is similar to that of a ball valve, which allows for quick shut off. Butterfly valves are generally favored because they are lower in cost to ot...
  • What is the Ball valve

    A ball valve is a form of quarter-turn valve which uses a hollow, perforated and pivoting ball to control flow through it. It is open when the ball's hole is in line with the flow and closed when it is pivoted 90-degrees by the valve handle. The handle lies flat in alignment with the flow when open, and is perpe...
