¾ Suitable for use in wide range of conditions
¾ Can be made fire resistant and blow-out
resistant
¾ Available in any size
¾ Blocked-in volume when the valve is closed
¾ Almost always leaks through the seat

Globe Valve Attributes

¾ Flow Control-Throttle Flow
¾ Works best with flow from one direction
¾ Suitable for use in wide range of conditions
¾ Can be made fire resistant and blow-out resistant
¾ Available in sizes up to about NPS 14
¾ No blocked-in volume when the valve is closed
¾ Almost always leaks through the seat, but less
than a gate valve

Check Valve Attributes

¾ Works only with flow from one direction
¾ Suitable for use in wide range of conditions
¾ Can be made fire resistant and blow-out
resistant
¾ Available in any size
¾ No blocked-in volume when the valve is
closed
¾ Almost always leaks through the seat, but
much more than a gate valve
B-21

Check Valve Attributes

¾ Check valves check about 95% of the time
¾ Check valves can close suddenly when the flow is
reversed, causing severe water hammer

Valve Type Slam Characteristics

Swing Severe (improved with weight or spring)
Lift Severe (improved with spring return)
Wafer Good
C/L Disk Best of those described

Types vs. P/T Ratings

Gate, Globe & Check Valves
• P-T ratings are usually
limited by the valve body

Quarter-Turn Valves
• P-T ratings are usually
limited by the seat

B-23

Types vs. Manufacturers

Gate, Globe & Check Valves
• If a manufacturer makes one
type, they usually make the
other types

Quarter-Turn Valves
• If a manufacturer makes
one type, they frequently
do not make the other
types
