Guys,

jika ada masukan dan tambahan tentang valve, silahkan di masukin sebgai input. Mungkin faktor
pemilihan valve (kenapa pakai ball, globe, gate valves) juga detil tentang metal seat soft seat. full
bore reduce bore, monggo ditumpahin aja kalo ada yang punya tambahan info.
Best Regards

Selecting your Valve

1. Choose a valve type depending on your application. Our manual valve
selection includes ball, check, diaphragm, elliptic, metering, needle, pinch, plug,
pressure relief, and stopcock valves. Our actuated valve selection includes
electrically actuated ball, elliptic, pinch, proportioning, and general-purpose
solenoid valves.
2. Consider your fluid type (liquid or gas) and its characteristics to
determine compatible valve materials. PTFE withstands many harsh or
corrosive chemicals. For safety reasons, always use metal valves for pressurized
gases.
3. Determine the temperature, pressure, and flow rate under which your
valve will be operating. In general, metal valves withstand higher temperatures
and pressures than plastic valves.
4. For solenoid valves, consider response time and length of time valve will
be energized. Continuous (100%) duty solenoid valves are best for frequent
on/off cycling. Choose normally closed or normally open depending on the state
the valve will be in most often.
5. Consider your maintenance requirements. Ball valves resist plugging and
are easiest to service.

Valve Types

Angle-Seat Valves:

Utilize an ultra-compact actuator to move a piston back and forth within the valve
body. On/off control and continuous control designs are available for gases,
steam, and liquids. The construction of the body allows extremely high flow rates,
particularly in comparison to conventional globe valves.

Ball Valves:

Designed primarily for on/off service. These valves contain a ball with a hole
through it. A handle or electric actuator rotates the ball 90, turning the flow on or
off. Use plastic ball valves for liquid applications only.

Butterfly Valves:

Designed primarily for on/off service. These valves have low pressure drops and
are self-sealing so they dont require an additonal flange gasket for installation.
For pipe sizes ranging from 1.5" to 12" dia.

Check Valves:

Self-actuated valves designed to prevent fluid from flowing backward into your
system. Flow forces a ball or disk in one direction to open the valve; when flow
stops, the ball or disk seats to close the valve.

Diaphragm Valves:

Use a flexible diaphragm to shut off flowcenter of the diaphragm is pushed

down into a seat. Use these valves for fluids that are dirty or have a high
particulate content.

Elliptic Valves:

Similar to ball valves except elliptic valves use an elliptic O-ring to seal the
cylinder during rotation. The seal design makes these valves ideal for vacuum
applications.

Manifold Valves:

Have one common port to two or more additional ports. For mixing, use the
common port as the outlet; for distributing, use the common port as the inlet.

Metering Valves:

Multi-turn valves designed to regulate the flow of fluid. These valves generally
have low flow rates and high pressure differentials.

Needle Valves:

Feature the most accurate flow control among the valves we offer. They are an
excellent choice for precise metering of liquids or gases.

Pinch Valves:

Use solenoid to squeeze shut a piece of tubing. Fluid contacts only the
tubingideal for your high-purity fluid applications.

Plug Valves:

Used primarily for on/off service. Controls flow using a plug with a hole through
it. Plugs can be made of rigid materials such as PTFE, making them ideal for
high-purity applications.

Pressure Valves:

Designed to control or limit pressurenot flowin a system. These self-actuating

valves will either open a relief port or bypass the fluid when a preset limit is
reached.

Proportioning Valves:

Designed to produce variable flow rates. Valves open and close in proportion to
the signal from your controller.

Sample Valves:

Special three-way valve designed to tap off a portion of the main flow for
sampling purposes.

Sanitary Valves:

Feature Tri-Clamp connections and 316 stainless steel body construction for
sanitary and high purity applications.

Solenoid Valves (Direct Lift):

Use a plunger that is actuated to open or close the fluid path. These valves usually
have low flow rates and high differential pressure drops. They generally have
quicker response time than pilot-operated valves.

Solenoid Valves (Pilot-Operated):

Utilize pressure created by air or liquids for actuation purposes. These valves are
either piston or diaphragm types and require differential pressure to keep valve
closed. Because they dont have a plunger, they are usually available in larger
orifice sizes than direct lift valves.

Stopcocks:

Similar to ball valves except stopcocks are much smaller in size. Primarily used in
the laboratory for on/off control of flow or as a crude regulation of flow rate.
