VALCON Offer a wide range of globe valves in a variety of sizes, pressure ratings and materials.
Globe valves are linear motion valves with rounded bodies, from which their name is derived. During the opening of the Globe Valve the fluid flows through the space between the Edge of the Disc & the seat. Globe valves are linear motion valves with rounded bodies from which their name is derived. During the opening of the Globe Valve the fluid flows through the space between the Edge of the Disc & the seat. These kind of valves are generally used in industry as fully open or fully closed valve, but they may be used for throttling as long as fine adjustments are not required. Globe valve are ideal choice to control the gases such as steam. A user can use it for throttling with little modification in plug & seat.
Being a linear operation, and requiring a low operating force to open, globe valves can be readily actuated for remote operation.
Globe valves can be straight through, angle or oblique pattern. the oblique pattern increases the flow coefficient to reduce the pressure drop.
When selecting a globe valve, it is important to consider operating temperature and pressure, media properties, flow requirements, duty requirements, physical limitations and suitability for the environment. When installing it is vital to ensure that the valve is positioned so that the flow is from the bottom of the valve to the top.
