Common valve structures and characteristics

Gate valves are controlled by the lifting and lowering of the gate, resulting in low flow resistance but slow opening and closing; The globe valve precisely adjusts the flow rate through the movement of the valve disc, with good sealing performance; Ball valves use spherical rotation to achieve fast opening and closing, with high pressure resistance and excellent sealing; The butterfly valve has a compact structure and is suitable for regulating large flow rates. Different structures affect the leakage rate, durability, and applicable scenarios of valves. Understanding their characteristics can help optimize maintenance strategies.
