Valves
Gate Valves
Gate valves isolate a line with a gate moving perpendicular to the flow. The flow path is largely unobstructed when fully open. They are generally selected for isolation rather than throttling. Metal or resilient sealing, body material and connections must be matched to the medium and operating conditions.
Frequently asked questions
How do I select a valve or steam trap?
Share the fluid, operating pressure and temperature, connection size and standard, and required control function. Include Kv/Kvs for control valves, and condensate load and back pressure for steam traps.
