MANUAL & AUTOMATED SHUTOFF
Reliable shutoff depends on more than the valve type. PRO-QUIP helps you compare industrial isolation valves using the media, operating conditions, required leakage performance and the way the valve will be operated.
Isolation valves are intended for fully open or fully closed service. Start by identifying what must be isolated, the operating conditions and the required shutoff performance. Include existing leakage, operating difficulties or changes in the process when discussing a replacement.
The available range includes ball, butterfly, plug, globe, gate and knife-gate valves. Designs vary in materials, seating arrangements and application requirements. PRO-QUIP can help you compare the choices against the actual duty. Check and stop-check valves are also available for related flow-control requirements.
The broader portfolio includes soft- and metal-seated butterfly valves, lined designs, cryogenic and high-temperature configurations, triple-offset designs and double-block-and-bleed options. Eccentric-plug offerings include soft or metal seats, ceramic inserts and reduced trims. Knife-gate options include application-specific designs and ceramic internals. Availability and performance must be reviewed for the selected model and service.
Manual valves may use a lever or handwheel. Automated arrangements can use pneumatic, electric or hydraulic actuation, depending on the valve and application. Define the required operating speed, available utilities and response to utility loss, along with any local indication or position-feedback needs.
PRO-QUIP can connect valve selection with automation support, including mounting hardware, labor and accessories for pneumatic or electric assemblies. For existing assets, discuss valve repair and refurbishment. Send equipment tags or photographs if you need help describing the installed arrangement.
MANUFACTURER TECHNOLOGIES
ANSWERS FOR YOUR APPLICATION
Yes. Isolation valves can be configured for automated operation where the valve and actuator arrangement suit the application. Share the valve details, required motion, available utilities and control requirements.
No. Specify the required leakage or shutoff performance and the service conditions. Seat design, materials and the selected valve configuration must be evaluated against that requirement.
Include the manufacturer, model, size, pressure class, connections, media, pressure and temperature. Explain any leakage, wear or operating problems and whether the process has changed.
