Valve Products Directory and Valve Manufacturers Resources
There are numerous types of valves available, including butterfly valve, ball valve, check valve, globe valve, gate valve, diaphragm valve, plug valve, and control valves as the most common. Particular valve types can be better suited to the medium being controlled, or have functional capabilities making them a better selection for your process application. Within each type there will be a wide range of options and features that allow for close tailoring of the complete valve assembly to match the application requirements. Some valves can be self-operated, while others require manual operation. A pneumatic, hydraulic, or electric actuator can be employed on certain configurations to provide for remote control of the valve by a human operator or automatic controller.

General valve functions include: Flow start or stop, Flow rate increase or reduction, Diversion of flow in another direction, Regulation of a flow or process pressure.

Selecting the proper valve requires careful consideration of many factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, service pressure and temperature, flow rate, pressure drop, the flow media's fluid and chemical properties, packing design, seat design, actuation alternatives, special cleaning, compliance with technical standards, and integration within your instrumentation system.

We maintain a large inventory of valves used in commercial and industrial applications. The valve business has been regulated by a number of standards issued primary by national bodies, with a prevalence of American institutions (API, NACE, ANSI, ASME). We will help you select the best valve for your instrumentation system application.
