FAQs on Industrial Valves
Why are valves important in production industry?
Valves are important in the manufacturing industry because they allow liquids, gases, and other materials to flow. They are installed in various locations along a pipe line and perform various functions, such as stop valves that prevent fluid from flowing backward, check valves that prevent fluid backflow, and pressure relief valves that release excess fluids or gases.
Why is Valve Testing important in industries?
Industrial valves guarantee that pressure is maintained and that there are no leaks. Valve testing is a crucial aspect of ensuring that they are in good functioning order. Valve testing should be done every two to three years, depending on the pressure the valve is subjected to and how it is used.
What are the different types of industrial valves?
Industrial valves are of various types including gate valves, globe valves, ball valves, butterfly valves, check valves, pressure valves, and diaphragm valves etc. These valves serve a variety of functions based on various operating principles.
