Gate Valve vs. Globe Valve vs. Check Valve – Principles, Applications, and Differences
Gate valves, globe valves, and check valves are three of the most fundamental and common types of valves. While their external appearances can sometimes be similar, their internal structures, working principles, and core missions are distinctly different. What is a Gate Valve? A gate valve is intended for the ON/OFF operation of fluid flow, involving […]
Read moreSealing Technology for Sanitary Valves: Dynamic Sealing and Static Sealing
The sealing performance of sanitary valves is crucial, as issues like leakage, spurting, dripping, and seeping often originate here. Based on whether there is relative motion between the sealing surfaces, seals can be categorized into dynamic seals and static seals. What is a Dynamic Seal? A dynamic seal refers to a seal achieved between components […]
Read moreWhat are the End Connection Types for Valves?
The main types of valve connections include flanged connection, welded connection, threaded connection, sleeve connection, clamp connection, and wafer connection. 1. Flanged Connection For pipelines larger than 2 inches, flanged connections are the most commonly used method. Valves with flanged connections are easy to install and disassemble. They are also widely applicable in terms of […]
Read moreWhere Should a Check Valve Be Installed?
How is the installation location of a check valve determined? What is the difference between installing a check valve before the pump versus after the pump? Where is pre-pump installation suitable? Check valves are often used with other valves. So, where should the check valve be installed when used in combination with other valves? Let’s […]
Read moreWhat’s the Difference between Pneumatic Butterfly Valves and Regular Ones?
The most basic difference is in the way they are driven. It’s the difference between a manual transmission car and an automatic. Both are made to drive, but the means through which you drive them can be quite different. By the phrase “regular butterfly valve,” we’re typically talking about manual butterfly valves. These are completely […]

One of the most common and popularly used sanitary fittings is the Valve. A valve is a device or natural object that regulates, directs, or controls the flow of a fluid (water, gases, liquids, fluidized solids, or slurries) by opening, closing, or partially obstructing various passageways. Valves have many uses, such as domestic uses for […]
Read moreHow To Select Valves In Different Temperatures
Control valves such as linear globe valves, tri-clamp ball valves, and rotary valves are essential aspects of a production and manufacturing process and play a critical role in various process industries. Control valves are designed to control the flow of fluids in a system. They are designed to allow adequate control of fluid by allowing […]
Read moreMaterials Used in Inlet and Exhaust Hygienic Valve
What are Hygienic Valves? Hygienic valves are special valves made from materials with very high purity. They are common in food, beverage, and dairy manufacturing as these are processes that do not need any form of contamination. Medical, chemical, pharmaceutical processes also require hygienic valves. Hygienic valves are generally crucial in processes that require a […]
Read moreWhat is the Difference Between a Check Valve and a Non-return Valve?
Valves play very crucial roles in mechanical engineering. The different types of valves available serve a similar purpose but are unique in their operating mechanism. Basically, a valve is a device used to control the flow of fluids (liquid, gas, and slurries). This control is achieved by a moveable element that restricts, partially obstructs, or […]
Read moreWhich is Better, Gate Valves or Ball Valves?
Which is better, gate valves or ball valves? When it comes to choosing isolation or flow control valves that best suit your application, the two most common options that you can choose from are gate valves and ball valves. Both are essentially the same in functionality, but they are markedly different when you compare their […]
