What it is?
This category includes devices that are able to adjust the power of the flow of liquids or gases. Pipelines are structures that most often contain elements of such equipment. allows you to control the amount of substances moving through pipelines. Shutoff technology can both slightly reduce the flow, and completely stop it.
Its types:
- Cranes.
The functionality of the valves involves their installation on pipelines with gas, steam, and also with water carriers. They are characterized by a small mass (this figure varies from 1 to 9 kg) and low resistance. The diameter of such products ranges from 1 to 3 inches. The most popular types of faucets are plug and ball. If we consider the method of sealing as a criterion, then they are tension, as well as stuffing boxes.
The connection of the valve to the pipeline is carried out by means of a coupling or flange. Sometimes the first is simply welded to the second.
- Valves.
The latter perform a critical function in many pipeline-type regulators. Valves are the most common stop valves. They are made in the form of parts equipped with a shutter, and are similar to cone-shaped or flat plates moving parallel to the axis of the sealing surface of the body seat in a manner. All movements are carried out in an arc or in a reciprocating manner.
A variety of such valves are valves. The movement of their inherent shutters is carried out using a threaded pair.
Shut-off valves are most often used, the installation of which is carried out on pipelines. Their regulation is carried out remotely by using an electric drive or in manual mode by using a flywheel.
- dampers.
The design of such products is designed in such a way as to install them on pipelines of impressive diameter. Damper installation is carried out in ventilation and air conditioning systems with low loads and low tightness requirements.
This shut-off valve can be multi-leaf or single - it depends on the number of plates used.
