API Cast Steel Welded Globe Valve

Description

API cast steel welded globe valves are a type of valves used for regulating flow in pipelines, consisting of a movable disk-type element and a stationary ring seat in a generally spherical body. These cast steel globe valves are widely used in those applications requiring throttling and frequent operation.

Application

API cast steel welded globe valves are utilized as regulation and cut-off device in such pipelines as tap water, sewage, construction, petroleum, chemical products, foodstuff, medicine, textile, electricity, ship, metallurgy, energy system, etc.

Advantages

1. Good sealing performance, small friction between sealing faces and long service life.
2. Low opening torque.
3. Simple structure, and convenient installation and maintenance.

Features

1. When starting or stopping API cast steel welded globe valves, the disc stroke is short. Therefore, its height is a bit lower than that of gate valves, but the structure length is longer.
2. Medium passway of this kind of cast steel globe valves is quite zigzag, so the hydraulic resistance is large, leading to big power consumption.
3. When in use, the medium flow direction in API globe valves is unidirectional and its flow direction can not be changed.
