VALVE TYPES

Valves are mechanical devices used to control and direct fluids. They are used in various applications thanks to their different types and features. Here are the commonly used valve types and features:

Gate Valve:

Used to completely open or close the flow.
It performs best in the fully open or fully closed position.
It is preferred in high-pressure applications.
Ball Valve:

Ideal for quickly opening or closing the flow.
It controls the flow with a spherical disc.
It provides sealing and is widely used in various industrial applications.
Butterfly Valve:

Used to quickly open or close the flow.
It regulates the flow with a disc-shaped cover.
It is used in large areas thanks to its lightweight and compact design.
Swing Valve:

Enables the flow to move in one direction.
It helps to protect systems by preventing reverse flow.
It is usually used with pumps.
Check Valve (Plug Valve):

It rotates a conical or cylindrical plug to open or close the flow.
It does not require frequent maintenance and is used in high temperature applications.
Globe Valve (Globe Valve):

It is used in places where the flow needs to be controlled precisely.
It has a spherical body structure.
It uses a disc and a ring to provide sealing.
Ball Valve (Globe Valve):

It opens or closes the flow with a spherical disc.
It has a fast opening and closing feature.
It provides sealing and is used in various industrial applications.
Butterfly Valve (Butterfly Valve):

It uses a disc-shaped cover to open or close the flow quickly.
It is preferred in large areas due to its compact and lightweight design.
Strainer Valve:

It is used to hold solid particles in the fluid and to ensure protection of the system.
It serves as a filter.
Needle Valve (Needle Valve):

It is used in places where the flow needs to be controlled very precisely.
It is widely preferred in small diameter pipe systems.
These valve types are used in a variety of industrial and commercial applications, ensuring efficient and safe management of fluids. Each valve type is selected according to specific needs, improving system performance and safety.
