Introduction: A valve can be described as a mechanical device and we can utilize this device to control the flow of liquid and gas. It can allow or block the flow of gas or liquid. A valve would be composed of a movable part and based on the movement of this part a valve would …
Blowdown valves in the boiler system control the concentration of dissolved solids in the boiler water. Blow-Down valves remove sludge and impurities from water in boiler systems. This valve maintains fluid-tightness and it is easily operated without the help of any wedging action. The water from the boiler system is blown out by the force …
The control valve with a dead band behaves like there may be some kind of resistance or response between the output of the controller and the actual position of the stem in the valve actuator. When the direction of controller output is changed at any instant. The dead band needs to pass over before the …
Specification of a control valve begins with a control loop. The control loop in every industrial application includes transmitters to transmit the signal to the controller then to the positioner and finally to the actuator of the control valve. The valve assembly consists of : Positioner to convert electric signal to pneumatic signal. Actuator for …

The valve actuator is a part of the control valve assembly fitted to it. In any control loop, the valve actuator receives a control signal for the system to move the valve to either a fully open or fully closed position or to remain in an intermediate position depending upon the control signal used. The …
Control valves are crucial components in every process industry. In process industries, these control valves are used for controlling the various types of fluids like water, gas, and steam in the process. As fluid passes through a control valve, the pressure systems across the control valve especially a pressure drop varies with fluid flow through …
What is control valve sizing? It is the process or the act of selecting an appropriate control valve for a particular application in the process industry. The control valve sizing is an essential factor to be considered while selecting the right sized control valve for the required process to achieve the highest degree of process …
Control Valve Sizing For The Process Performance Read More »
Control valves are constructed using various combinations of the valve actuator and valve body. The failure modes in the control valve actuator is achieved by combining direct acting or reverse acting actuator and direct acting or reverse acting valve body. The selection of valve actuator and valve body is done in such a way to …
In this session we are gonna discuss about how to select a control valve actuators and we will briefly talk about it’s criteria What is a control valve actuator? The control valve regulates the rate of fluid flow as the position of the valve plug or disk is changed by force from the actuator. How …
