Applications of Valves in Different Industries

Valves serve a variety of purposes in different industries. Choosing the right valve can determine the success or failure of the system or process. Its main purpose is to control media flow, through a system. It could be used to start, stop, or throttle the flow. And to ensure the safe and efficient operation of the process.

Power Plants

Power Plants

Gate valves are the top choice for the power plant Industry. The Y-pattern globe valves are also sometimes used. Another type of valve that is making great inroads in a formerly linear-valve-dominated industry is high-performance critical-service ball valves.

 

Cogeneration

Cogeneration

Butterfly valves are the best types of valves used in Co-generation plants. Sun Valves uses tightly sealed materials made of high-quality rubber which provides proper isolation during closer. They are perfect solutions when the plant has limited space. These valves can be used for throttling or for regulating the flow of liquid.

Offshore Plant

Offshore Plant

Offshore Plant contains a plethora of valves such as ball and check, and API 6D gated valves. The strict requirements to use API 6D valves for pipelines don’t apply due to pipelines on the drill ship or platform being internal to the facility.

Refining

Refining

Butterfly valves are one of the most preferred valves in the refining industry because of their low maintenance and high reliability. These valves can be opened and closed quickly through an isolated variety of media. It can only operate with the material at low pressure.

Marine

Marine

Valves in the Marine Industry are used to regulate the loading and storage of a ship’s power supply and provide water for fire-fighting capabilities, Any valve that processes the seawater must be long-lasting, and all marine valves must be dependable due to a lack of resources once out at sea.

Steel and Gas Plant

Steel and Gas Plant

Since there is high demand for Steel and gas, deeper wells, longer pipelines, and lower production costs became necessary. Along with the need for a cheaper valve, the device must be tougher and last longer. Since this plant works round the clock with just one annual maintenance closer. Therefore, the valves installed must operate with low maintenance.

 

Sea Water

Sea Water

Butterfly valves are perfect for the sea water industry as they are thin and can be installed in less space and also needs less maintenance. They are also very easy to operate.  Sea Water corrosion is a major problem therefore, sea water valves must be corrosion resistive which will ensure their long life and reliable operations.

Steam

Steam

Steam is a vital source of heat and energy for industrial and chemical processes. It is also used for building heating, supplying mechanical energy, controlling temperatures and pressures, etc. Steam valves are used to control the pressure level of steam and heated water vapor.

Fire Safer Piping System

Fire Safer Piping System

For fire safer piping systems to be useful, they must have sufficient pressure as well as be conveniently located throughout the building. The type and class of the valve for a fire-safer piping system must be sanctioned by the appropriate governing body before it is installed.
