1. What are the three main factors to consider when selecting an actuator? 1) The actuator’s output must exceed the valve's load and be appropriately matched. 2) When checking standard combinations, ensure that the allowable pressure differential specified for the valve meets process requirements. For high pressure differentials, calculate the unbalanced forces on the valve core. 3) Consider wheth...

In the valve industry, shut-off valves are widely used in various industrial piping systems due to their excellent regulation and sealing capabilities. However, a key aspect often overlooked during the installation of shut-off valves is their installation orientation. In reality, shut-off valves have specific directional requirements. Proper installation direction is not only crucial for the valve...

As a valve widely used in fluid control systems, the ball valve is typically regarded as an efficient shut-off valve. Its unique structural design allows it to fully open or close the pipeline with just a 90-degree rotation, achieving rapid shut-off or opening of the media flow. Therefore, ball valves are widely used as shut-off valves in various industrial applications, especially in situations r...

Gate valves are a popular choice in many industries for specific types of applications. Here’s why they are commonly used: 1. Full Flow or Isolation Gate valves are ideal for situations where a full, unobstructed flow or complete shutoff is required. When fully opened, the gate valve allows fluid to pass through with minimal restriction, which helps to reduce pressure loss. This makes them particu...
