VALVES

Strainer Valve

A strainer valve can be defined as


a pipe fitting through which liquid is
passed for purification, filtering, or
separation from solid matter; anything
used to strain a liquid; any device
functioning as a sieve or filter used to
prevent solid bodies from mixing in a
liquid stream or flow line.

Gate Valve

The gate valve is a regular type valve


that is used in any process plant. Here flow
of fluid is controlled in linear motion. Gate
valves are either in a fully open or fully
closed position. Gate valve is used in
nearly all fluid services functioning as air,
fuel gas, feedwater, lube oil, steam,
hydrocarbon, and close to every system.

Globe Valve

The globe valve is used to start-stop


and regulate the fluid in it. Globe stopper
occurs at a place in the system where we
have to control the fluid flow, and also take
into account the leakage and tightness of
the system. It is costlier than gate valves.
But it provides good leakproof and
tightness than gate valves. Normally the
globe valves are used as a control valve.
