Globe Valve

Globe Valve

A valve with a rounded disc for controlling fluid flow, offering precise throttling and shut-off capabilities in various applications.

Definition

A valve with a rounded disc that shuts off the flow when closed, and seats to prevent fluid flow.

Globe valves control the flow of liquids and gases through a pipe, offering precise throttling and shut-off capabilities.

Water Supply Systems: Used to regulate water flow in plumbing systems.
Industrial Processes: Controlling the flow of chemicals or gases in manufacturing plants.
HVAC Systems: Regulating the flow of heating and cooling fluids.

Valve: A device that regulates the flow of fluids by opening, closing, or partially obstructing passageways.
Gate Valve: A valve that opens by lifting a gate out of the fluid path.
Ball Valve: A valve that uses a spherical obstruction to control flow.

Globe valves are ideal for applications where flow needs to be adjusted frequently, as they provide better control compared to other types of valves.
