    Types of Valves

    Muhamad Fakhrurrazzi
    Valves are mechanical devices that control the flow and pressure of fluids like liquids and gases within a system. There are many types of valves that serve different purposes, such as check valves that allow fluid to flow in only one direction, ball valves that provide on/off control without pressure drop and are ideal for quick shut-off, and control valves that regulate conditions like flow, pressure, and temperature. Valves are essential components of piping systems and come in various designs to serve applications like regulating flow, limiting pressure, and directing flow.

    Introduction

    Valves are mechanical devices that controls the flow and pressure within a system or process.
    They are essential components of a piping system that regulates, directs or controls the flow of a
    fluid (gases, liquids, fluidized solids, or slurries) by opening, closing, or partially obstructing
    various passageways.
    Types Of Valves :
    Valves Symbol Application Images
    Check Valve

    Allows the fluid to pass
    in one direction only



    Needle Valve


    It allows precise
    regulation of flow,
    although it is generally
    only capable of
    relatively low flow
    rates.



    Ball Valve


    On/off control without
    pressure drop, and ideal
    for quick shut-off, since
    a 90 turn offers
    complete shut-off angle,
    compared to multiple
    turns required on most
    manual valves.




    Four-way valve


    Control the flow of
    steam to the cylinder of
    early double-acting
    steam engines



    Butterfly valve


    Flow regulation in large
    pipe diameters.



    Solenoid valve



    Electrically controlled
    hydraulic or pneumatic
    valve



    Control Valve


    Control conditions such
    as flow, pressure,
    temperature, and liquid
    level



    Diaphragm valve


    Controls flow by a
    movement of a
    diaphragm. Upstream
    pressure, downstream
    pressure, or an external
    source (e.g., pneumatic,
    hydraulic, etc.) can be
    used to change the
    position of the
    diaphragm.



    Relief Valve

    Control or limit the
    pressure in a system or
    vessel which can build
    up by a process upset,
    instrument or equipment
    failure, or fire.



    Plug Valve


    Can be rotated inside
    the valve body to
    control flow through the
    valve



    Gate Valve


    Opens by lifting a round
    or rectangular
    gate/wedge out of the
    path of the fluid





    Globe Valve

    Used for regulating flow
    in a pipeline, consisting
    of a movable disk-type
    element and a stationary
    ring seat in a generally
    spherical body



    Angle Valve

    Operated valve with its
    outlet opening oriented
    at right angles to its
    inlet opening; used for
    regulating the flow of a
    fluid in a pipe.





    3 Way Valve

    Shut off water flow in
    one pipe while opening
    water flow in another
    pipe, to mix water from
    two different pipes into
    one pipe, or to separate
    water from one pipe into
    two different pipes.


    Hydraulic valve


    Properly directs the
    flow of a liquid
    medium, usually oil,
    through your hydraulic
    system.










    Conclusion
    Valve is an important part that controls the flow and pressure within a system process.
