Everything about Ball Valves

The ball valve is one of the essential industrial equipment used to cut off and connect the flow. In the following article, we reviewed the ball valve, its types, and its various applications. Stay with us.

A ball valve is a form of quarter-turn valve which uses a hollow, perforated and pivoting ball to control flow through it. It is open when the ball's hole is in line with the flow and closed when it is pivoted 90-degrees by the valve handle.

There are many things to consider when you decide to buy ball valve parts. You should know the ball valve well enough and for that, you need to learn each and every part and gain a deep understanding of ball valve replacement parts to find the right Valves for your system. Linquip gathered around all the necessary information you need to know about ball valve parts in this article. So read on and enjoy effortless learning.click for read more


What is a Ball Valve?

Ball valves are mechanical devices capable of controlling, guiding, directing, and modulating the flow of different substances such as gas, pressure, liquids, etc. There are different ball valve types with various designs for specific uses, but basic ball valve parts are the same among them. Different ball valves can be classified based on different features.

In general, ball valves are divided into five categories, which are Single Body, Three Piece, Split Body, top Entry and Welded Body that is used in homes, various industries and factories.

What are the flow control valves?

Flow control valves are units designed to regulate the pressure or the flow of a fluid. There are a few devices such as temperature gauges or flow meters, providing signals for flow control valves which intrigues their operation.

Control valves are normally fitted with actuators and positioners. Pneumatically-actuated globe valves and diaphragm valves are widely used for control purposes in many industries, although quarter-turn types such as (modified) ball and butterfly valves are also used. see more

Introduction of electric motors and types

Image
  You've probably heard of electric motors by now. A critical piece in all electrical appliances. In this article, we will introduce electric motors in detail and examine its types, so stay tuned. An electric motor is a component that converts electrical energy into kinetic energy. Most electric motors are  electromagnetic -based. Most electric motors are rotary, but there are also linear motors. In a rotating motor, the moving part (usually inside the engine) is called the impeller or rotor, and the fixed position is called the station or stator. The motor consists of electric magnets wound on a frame. Although this frame is often referred to as armature, the term is often misused. Types of Electric Motor Electric motors may be classified by considerations such as power source type, internal construction, application and type of motion output. In addition to AC versus DC types, motors may be brushed or brushless, may be of various phase (see single-phase, two-phase, or three-phase

Read more about Centrifugal Compressor

 Centrifugal Compressor is one of the types of compressors. In this post, we talked about how it works, its types, and comparing it with several other compressors. The radial compressor is also called a centrifugal compressor. This kind of dynamic compressor has a radial design. They operate at constant pressure and any changes in the external conditions will affect the performance of these compressors. Centrifugal compressors, sometimes called radial compressors, are a sub-class of dynamic axisymmetric work-absorbing turbomachinery. They achieve a pressure rise by adding kinetic energy/velocity to a continuous flow of fluid through the rotor or impeller.   Types of  Centrifugal Compressor Multi-Stage Compressor Multi-stage compressors are among different types of centrifugal compressors. As the name suggests, this compressor has been designed to pass the gas through multiple stages for diverse purposes. Multi-stage compressors are used when a single-stage compressor can’t keep up with

Review and introduction of different parts of control valves

Image
 Control valves are one of the applications in home and industrial applications. We have talked about it in previous articles. In this article, in addition to an overview of its use, we want to introduce Control Valve Parts . Stay with us. What is Control Valve? A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller.This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure, temperature, and liquid level. In automatic control terminology, a control valve is termed a "final control element". Bad fuel can cause key engine parts, such as the injection control unit, fuel pressure control valve, fuel oil pump or cylinder liners and piston rings to go from new to unusable in no time.  Read more The main purposes of control valves: Relieving the system from specific pressures Controlling the flow direction Increasing or decrease the flow Parts of co
