Key Products/TechnologiesKeyProducts/Technologies
Gate Valve: A valve type suitable for large diameters and high-pressure applications due to minimal pressure loss and short face-to-face dimensions. It performs the essential function of opening and closing fluid flow in various industrial environments.GateValve:Avalvetypesuitableforlargediametersandhigh-pressureapplicationsduetominimalpressurelossandshortface-to-facedimensions.Itperformstheessentialfunctionofopeningandclosingfluidflowinvariousindustrialenvironments.
Globe Valve: Capable of quick opening and closing with less lift than Gate Valves, and offering pressure regulation through pressure drop. It supports pressure ratings from ASME Class 150 to 4500 and sizes from 1/2" to 6", utilizing various materials including carbon steel, low alloy steel, and austenitic stainless steel. The company offers diverse bonnet types such as bolted, non-bonnet, and pressure seal types, along with special fluid control disks like quick opening and throttle types.GlobeValve:CapableofquickopeningandclosingwithlessliftthanGateValves,andofferingpressureregulationthroughpressuredrop.ItsupportspressureratingsfromASMEClass150to4500andsizesfrom1/2"to6",utilizingvariousmaterialsincludingcarbonsteel,lowalloysteel,andausteniticstainlesssteel.Thecompanyoffersdiversebonnettypessuchasbolted,non-bonnet,andpressuresealtypes,alongwithspecialfluidcontroldiskslikequickopeningandthrottletypes.
Check Valve: A valve designed to prevent backflow of fluid, capable of both horizontal and vertical installation. Its Non-Slam structure minimizes disk wear and contributes to reduced maintenance costs. The disk and seat configuration, utilizing the Venturi effect, simplifies the fluid flow path, resulting in low-pressure loss.CheckValve:Avalvedesignedtopreventbackflowoffluid,capableofbothhorizontalandverticalinstallation.ItsNon-Slamstructureminimizesdiskwearandcontributestoreducedmaintenancecosts.Thediskandseatconfiguration,utilizingtheVenturieffect,simplifiesthefluidflowpath,resultinginlow-pressureloss.
Control Valves: Valves that perform corrective actions based on the difference between set values and measured values for parameters such as pressure, temperature, level, and flow rate. The company possesses customized design and manufacturing technologies to maximize the efficiency and stability of power plants.ControlValves:Valvesthatperformcorrectiveactionsbasedonthedifferencebetweensetvaluesandmeasuredvaluesforparameterssuchaspressure,temperature,level,andflowrate.Thecompanypossessescustomizeddesignandmanufacturingtechnologiestomaximizetheefficiencyandstabilityofpowerplants.
Safety Valve: A valve that automatically releases fluid to protect against overpressure when the fluid pressure in high-pressure piping, pressure vessels, and other pressure-using equipment exceeds the specified maximum operating pressure. It is a critical component essential for the safe operation of power plants.SafetyValve:Avalvethatautomaticallyreleasesfluidtoprotectagainstoverpressurewhenthefluidpressureinhigh-pressurepiping,pressurevessels,andotherpressure-usingequipmentexceedsthespecifiedmaximumoperatingpressure.Itisacriticalcomponentessentialforthesafeoperationofpowerplants.
