Stuck on an equipment purchase and don't know what to choose? These three articles will help you figure out how to select a valve, what type of CNC machine is best for your application, and what torque wrench will get your job done.
Tight Shut-Off Applications: What to Look for in Valve Selection
Tight shut-off refers to the condition where there's no fluid leakage when a valve is in the closed position. This is vital in flow systems where isolation is necessary between the upstream and the downstream. The isolation could be required as a safety measure or for maintenance activities to be carried out on downstream equipment. Shut-off valves are fitted into the flow systems to achieve this isolation.
There are many shut-off valves with unique characteristics and it's important to select the right valve for the intended tight shut-off application. Here are some of the factors to consider when selecting a valve for a tight shut-off application.
