When the liquid wants to flow from one place to another absolutely we need Industrial valves. Let's discuss about few industrial valves here:

There are so many types of valves that differ in their working principle and function. You can even have Y-strainer to regulate the flow of liquid in one direction.

Ball valves
Inside a pipe a hollowed out ball-shaped disk is fitted in order to start and stop the flow of the liquid through a rotational motion of this disk. If the valve is opened and aligned in the direction of the flow, it is open and it is closed when the valve is perpendicular to the direction of the flow.

Globe valves
Cast steel globe valve is very similar to the gate valve. Where it uses a linear motion to throttle flow and adjust to lower or increase flow; the advantage of a globe valve is that it does not leak as much as other valves.

Plug valves
Plug Valve is usually a cylindrical or tapered plug with a bored passage to block, start or throttle flow. When you turn the wheel, it acts as a part of the flow for the liquid to pass from one place to another.

Gate valves
Forged steel gate valve is very similar to the tap. When you raise and lower the metal gates you can see the wedge is inserted on the seat and allows a passageway.

Check valves
Check valves are usually called swing check valve in which they allow the unidirectional flow of fluids; they do not allow it to flow back. These valves check the pressure surge and prevent water hammering.

According to the place where you can make use of the valves effectively, choose them. Get some expertise work on this so you can effectively fix the value in the proper functionality as this might cause severe damage if there are some careless mistakes.
