Valves

Valves are equipment designed to stop or regulate flow of any fluid (liquid, gas, condensate, stem, slurry, etc.) in its path. Valves are categorized depending on their applications like isolation, throttling, and non-return. Various type of valves are available depending upon the type of construction as follows:
• Gate valve – used for isolation only
• Plug valve – used for isolation only
• Globe valve – used for throttling
• Butterfly valve – used for isolation as well as throttling
• Check valve – used for preventing reverse flow (non-return)
• Diaphragm valve – used for isolation as well as throttling
• Ball valve – used for isolation only
• Needle Valve – used to control flow rate to a desired amount
