What to Do If a Sanitary Valve Leaks or Gets Stuck
Sanitary valves are essential parts of piping systems. Sanitary valves are used in pharma and food industries. When sanitary valves leak or clog, problems arise. Production can be put behind schedule. Product quality is compromised. Understanding why this happens and how to repair it is essential. Why a Sanitary Valve Could Leak and How To […]
Read more7 Types of Wear Produced During Valve Operation
Due to frequent opening and closing and erosion of the fluid medium, the wear of sanitary valves is generally classified into the following types. Adhesive wear Adhesive wear is usually caused by sliding between metals. As the two pieces of metal are pressed together, the uneven surfaces come into contact with each other to form contact […]
Read moreThe Maintenance of Valve Stuffing
1. Stuffing is a key sealing member that is directly related to whether there’s a leakage when the valve opens or closes. If the stuffing is no longer functional and causes leakage, the valve is in effect no longer functional. Especially the urea pipeline valve, because of its relatively high temperature and corrosion, stuffing is […]
Read moreThe Mechanism and Structure of Solenoid Valve
What are the types of solenoid valves? Tracing the history of the development of the solenoid valve, so far, it can be divided into three categories according to its mechanism. These are direct-acting type, distributed direct-acting type, and pilot type. And according to the differences in the structure of the valve flap, materials, and mechanism, they […]
Read moreWhat are the Effects of the Coating on the Valve Surface?
Generally speaking, cast iron and carbon steel valves are usually painted with different types and thicknesses of paint for good protection. Sanitary valves are generally used for the transportation of water, oil, steam, etc., and are in direct contact with the metal surface, thus prone to serious corrosion under the action of oxygen. Coatings are generally […]
Read moreTop 6 Precautions to Take When Installing Balancing Valve
What is the purpose of a balancing valve? Balancing of heating and cooling systems is performed to ensure that the correct amount of water is present at all consumption points. Balancing is carried out by building balancing valves into the system, thereby adding adjustable resistance. What are the top 6 precautions to take when installing balancing […]
Read moreFeatures of the Valve Manufacturing Process
Valves seem like fairly uncomplicated equipment in the machinery industry, right? They simply open and close to start and stop the flow of fluids and other mediums. They must be fairly easy to manufacture, right? When you take a closer look, you’ll find that every residential and industrial pipeline system would immediately fail without functioning […]
Read moreWhat Does the Operating Condition of Sanitary Valves Depend?
The working condition of the sanitary valve depends on many factors, including working pressure and working temperature of the medium, variation of pressure and temperature, driving mode, the installation position of the sanitary valve, service cycle, etc. Working pressure and temperature Generally speaking, the higher the pressure and temperature of the sanitary valve, the worse the […]
Read moreThe Causes Leading to Damaged Valve Sealing Surface
Mechanical damage: There will be scratches, bumps, crushes, and other damages during the opening and closing of the sealing surface. Between two sealing surfaces, under high temperature and high pressure, there will be mutual penetration of atoms, resulting in adhesion. When the two sealing surfaces move along each other, they’re prone to be torn apart […]
Read moreWhat is a Hydraulic Control Valve Mechanism?
What are the functions of the hydraulic control valves? Hydraulic control valves are used to adjust the flow rate of hydraulic fluid in a hydraulic system. These valves have a port that is able to be adjusted so that the flow area may be changed to provide an alteration in the flow rate through the […]
