Valve actuator is a device for operating and connecting valve. The device can be driven by power source of electric power, air pressure, hydraulic pressure or other combination, and its motion process can be controlled by the stroke, torque or axial thrust. Because the actuator working characteristics and utilization rate depend on the valve type, the working specifications, and the position of th...

To understand the difference between globe valve and stop check valve, we should first figure out what is a stop check valve. Stop check valve combines the functions of a general globe valve and check valve, which means besides isolating and regulating the flow rate, it can also prevent reverse flow. From the appearance, globe valve and stop check valve almost look the same. The main difference li...

Compared with other mechanical manufacturing processes, the valve manufacturing process has the following characteristics: A. The manufacture and inspection technology of valve rough is very complicated. The valve's casting blank is a thin-walled shell with complicated structure. Casting requires a smooth surface, casting characters clear, especially to have a dense structure, and do not allow the...

An axial flow silent check valve’s disc is held in place by a spring. This upgraded structure design brings about many advantages. First, as its name indicates, the streamlined axial flow path through full-port expanded body prevent turbulence, erosion and vibration, which eliminate the process downtime and maintenance cost. Second, the full port passage and high-pressure recovery of the venturi-s...

People often have a confusion between a knife gate valve and slide gate valve. In brief, knife gate valve uses a blade to cut through thick liquids or gas; while a slide gate valve utilizes a slide plate to shut off flow of dry bulk material. In this article, we will discuss their differences in details. Knife Gate Valve Knife gate valves were originally designed for pulp and paper industry. ...

1. What is the value of flow coefficient Kv? What is the flow coefficient Cv? Volumetric flow of water flowing between 5 ° C (40 ° F) and 40 ° C (104 ° F) through the valve to produce a pressure loss of 1 bar (14.7 psi), expressed in cubic meters per hour. Kv = Cv / 1.156 Flow coefficient Cv: It is the mass flow rate when water flows through the valve at 15.6 ° C (60 ° F) to produce 1psi, expresse...
