There are various types of control valves, which are mainly classified into the following categories according to their design and application:
Shut-off valves:
This valve is usually used to regulate the flow of fluids. It has a conical or spherical flap and can be operated manually or automatically to adjust the degree of opening and closing of the valve.
Plug Valve:
Because of their simple construction and operation, plug valves are usually used in applications requiring rapid opening and closing. The valve flap resembles a rotating disk that is rotated to control the passage of fluid.
Ball Valves:
A ball valve uses a rotating sphere to control the flow of fluid. It is characterized by rapid opening and closing and is usually used in systems where rapid shutoff of fluid is required.
Regulating Valves:
These valves are specifically designed to precisely regulate the flow, pressure, or temperature of a fluid. Regulating valves are usually equipped with controls that dynamically adjust the position of the valve according to system requirements.
Butterfly Valves:
Butterfly valves are used to prevent backflow of fluid and have a flap that allows fluid to pass in one direction. This type of valve is usually used in systems where backflow prevention is required.
Motorized Valves:
This is a class of valves that are controlled by an electric motor or solenoid mechanism and can be operated remotely or automatically. Motorized valves are usually used in systems requiring a high degree of automation.
