What is a pressure reducing valve? Why we need a pressure reducing valve? The pressure reducing valve, its abbreviation is PRV, also known as a regulator valve. It is a type of valve that reduces the inlet pressure to a required outlet pressure through adjustment, and relies on the energy of the medium itself to…
In industrial product procurement, both swing check valves and wafer check valves play important roles, but there are significant differences between them. Swing check valve vs wafer check valve: main differences. Structure. Swing check valves: They have a hinged disc that swings open to allow forward flow and closes under reverse flow. They usually have…
In the world of industrial valves, the floating ball valve and the trunnion ball valve stand out as two widely-used types. These valves are essential for regulating fluid flow in industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, and water treatment. Understanding their differences in detail is import for one to make the best decisions…
A inch and a half ball valve, that is a 1-1/2” ball valve refers to a ball valve with a pipeline diameter of 1and 1/2 inches, which is commonly used in household water pipes and air conditioners systems. I. The size of the 1-1/2” ball valve The 1-1/2” ball valve, actually means that the pipeline…
Both gate valves and globe valves are commonly used shut-off valves, mainly for opening or closing pipelines (fully open or fully closed). They have some similarities in appearance, so many people who have little contact with valves tend to confuse the two. However, they differ significantly in terms of working principles, structures, performances, and application…
The slient check valve belongs to the category of automatic valves. Its function is to prevent the medium in the pipeline from flowing backwards. It is mainly used on pipelines where the medium flows on one way, allowing the medium to flow in only one direction to prevent accidents. The maintenance of slient check valves…
A check valve, also known as a non return valve or one way valve, is a valve allows the fluid to flow in only one direction, while automatically closing to prevent the backflow of the fluid in the opposite direction. The types of check valves are various and complex. Commonly used check valves according to…
For valves working in corrosive media conditions, corrosion prevention is the most crucial job. If the metal materials of chemical valves is not correctly selected, very esily it may damage the equipment at best, and at worst, it may lead to accidents or even disasters. According to some relevant statistics, about 60% of the chemical…
The check valve is used when the medium is required to flows only in one direction. It can prevent backflow. In terms of structure, the check valve can be classified into three types: lift check valve, swing check valve and butterfly check valve. Topwells here will introduce the differences between the lift check valve and…
The working principle and structural characteristics of a three way ball valve have led to its wide application in many industrial fields. The following is a detailed introduction to three way ball valves: Ⅰ. What is a three way ball valve? A three way ball valve is a ball valve used to control the flow…

A non slam check valve is a check valve non slam type that can prevent the slam or water hammer when the valve closes. Because the no slam check valve is equipped with a special pressure reducing device. Before the valve closes, it can quickly reduce the liquid pressure inside the pipeline to below the…
What is Industrial Flange Gate Valves? An industrial flange gate valve is a type of valve used to control the flow of fluids in industrial pipeline systems. It opens or closes the passage by the vertical movement of the gates. When the gate is fully raised, the fluid can pass through the valve unobstructed; when…
I. What is a flow control valve? A flow control valve is a valve that can control the flow rate and volume of the fluid in a pipeline.It mainly includes throttle valves, speed control valves, and composite valves which is a combination of overflow valves and throttle valves, etc. It regulates the flow volume in…
It is well known, ball valves are widely used in fields such as chemical industry, petroleum, and metallurgy. The inner wall of the popular fully welded ball valve is extremely smooth. During the process of transporting medium, the friction between the inner wall of the ball valve and the medium is very small, and the…
