The types of valves (valves) that are often used are as follows:
1. GATE VALVE
Gate valve is a type of valve that is used to open the flow by lifting the gate cover which is round or rectangular.
2. GLOBE VALVE
Globe Valve is a type of valve that is used to regulate the flow rate of fluid in a pipe.
3. BALL VALVE
Ball Valve is a valve or valve with a round disc-shaped flow controller (like a ball / hemisphere). The ball has a hole, which is in the middle so that when the hole is in a straight line or in line with the two ends of the valve / valve, the flow will occur.
4. BUTTERFLY VALVE
Butterfly Valve is a valve that can be used to isolate or regulate flow. The closing mechanism takes the form of a disk. the operating system is similar to a ball valve, which allows it to quickly close. Butterfly Valve is generally preferred because the price is cheaper than other types of valve. the design of the valves is lighter in weight than the other types of valves. Maintenance costs are usually lower because of the minimal number of moving parts.
5. CHECK VALVE
Check valve is a tool used to make fluid flow only flow in one direction or to prevent reversed flow / back flow.
6. SOLENOID VALVE
Solenoid valve is a valve that is driven by electrical energy through a solenoid, has a coil as a drive that serves to move the piston that can be driven by AC or DC currents, pneumatic solenoid valve or valve (solenoid valve) has an output hole, input hole and exhaust hole. The input hole, serves as a terminal / place of pressurized air entering or supply (service unit), while the output hole functions as a terminal or where outgoing wind pressure is connected to the pneumatic, and the exhaust hole, serves as a conduit to release compressed air trapped when the plunger moves or move position when the pneumatic valve solenoid works.
