When we purchase the electric ball valve, only the specification, category and working pressure can meet the purchasing requirements. Under the unified design concept of the electric ball valve, different innovations will be carried out, forming their own enterprise standards and product personality. I. General requirements 1. The specification and category of electric ball valves shall meet the requirements of pipeline design documents. 2. The model of electric ball valves shall indicate the requirements...
The Differences of Three Kinds of Common Stainless Steel Valves
What's the differences of three kinds of common stainless steel valves? Stainless steel 201, 304 and 316 are three common stainless steel materials. Although the surface material looks like stainless steel, their uses, prices and characteristics are different. Stainless steel 201 is the most cost-effective stainless steel material with low prices, but it is easy to rust. Stainless steel 304 is the most common and widely used stainless steel material, which is not easy to rust and has good...

The Selection Standard of Industrial Valves
It is very important to have a basic knowledge of the industrial performance requirements of valves, which will make it easier for us to select valves. It is recommended that the following five points should be keep in mind before starting selecting valves: 1. Valve sizes and types It should be pointed out that the valves in industrial equipment should perform multiple functions such as cuting off flows, transfering flows, mixing flows, pressure relief, preventing backflows and regulating flows....
Notes for the Use of Electric Ball Valves
The selection of electric ball valves 1. An electric ball valve is a fluid control component, which is widely used in the fluid pipeline system. It has a very good effect on controlling flows, pressure, reflux and so on. Because the quality of the electric ball valve has a great influence on the safety of the pipeline, when we choose the electric ball valve, it must be selected according to certain steps and basis. 2. Know the pipe diameter, pressure and temperature used by the company, and know...
The History of Valves
What is a valve? A valve is the general term of the control parts that guide, stop and regulate the fluid (gas and liquid). For example, valves includes general valves, gate valves, globe valves, cast steel valves, etc. The valve that mainly controls the discharge and consumption of fluid is also called a plug. There are water hydrants, water distribution hydrants, gas hydrants, fire hydrants, etc. Valves play an important role in the piping of infrastructure (power, waterway and gas), construction...
What Are the Valve’s Manufacturing Technology?
The following are the manufacturing technology of valves: 1) Casting: Casting is a method of forming materials. Put the molten metal into the mould of the desired shape, and wait for it to solidify. Then, take out the product after cooling. 2) Forging: it is one process of compressing a metal profile by placing it between a pair of anvil surfaces or in a metal mold after heating. 3) Welding: it refers to the process of heating or pressurizing a variety of materials, so that the atoms...
Application Conditions and Operation of Gate Valves
A gate valve refers to the valve whose closing parts move along the vertical direction of the path center line. The gate valve can only be used to fully open and close the pipeline, but it can't be used for regulation and throttling. A gate valve is a kind of valve with a wide range of use. Generally, it is selected for the cut-off device with DN ≥ 50 mm, and sometimes it is also used for the cut-off device with small diameters. The gate plate has two sealing surfaces....

How to Install and Maintain Ball Valves?
Installation of ball valves 1. A ball valve must be cleaned before operation. 2. The actuator of ball valve drives the valve stem to rotate according to the size of the input signal. When the forward rotation is 1/4 circle (900), the ball valve is closed. When the reverse rotation is 1/4 circle (900), the ball valve is opens. 3. When the direction indicator arrow of the actuator is parallel to the pipeline, the ball valve opens. When the arrow is vertical to the pipeline, the ball...
Advantages of Filling Foam on Floating Ball Valve’s Top
What is the advantages of filling foam on floating ball valve's top? The common floating ball valves on the market are hollow, so the damage degree of the floating ball is directly related to the pipeline pressure and medium corrosivity. The hollow floating ball is easy to shrink during transportation or collision. And it will be damaged in a period of time when the medium is corrosive. Let's first say that the wall thickness of the lower hollow floating ball is within 0.3 mm to 1.0 mm,...
