High pressure pinch valves, like PN16 pinch valve and class 150 pinch valve designs, involve a rugged and heavy-duty pinching mechanism in positioning the sleeve, resulting in an almost accurate and measurable flow of media. This kind of valve is popular and commonly used for long distance operations in mining tailings lines or oil sands, […]
When handling abrasive or viscous media in industrial processes, the type of valve used can heavily affect the performance, efficiency, and overall user experience. In relation to this, two of the most common valve options are pinch and diaphragm valves. In this blog, we delve into the pinch valve vs diaphragm valve discussion, analyzing flow […]
Slurries pose risks in industrial piping as they blend liquids with abrasive solids that erode components rapidly. Although ball valves for slurry applications may seem ideal thanks to their quarter-turn operation that provides quick shut-off, it often experiences rapid wear when used in systems with debris or abrasive particles, leading to leaks or valve failure. […]
Both the knife gate valves and heavy-duty pinch valves are designed for long-lasting operation and are ideal where shut-off and control applications involve abrasive or corrosive slurries and powders or coarse media. Nevertheless, in some comparison scenarios, the knife gate valve vs pinch valve debate mainly centers on longevity amid harsh conditions like mining tailings, […]
Wet cement is sticky which is why it must be removed properly from storage silos in processing plants. This method is called “pneumatic conveying,” where compressed air pushes cement through pipes. However, powders and granules can clog or block valves. To avoid this, powder handling valves like pinch valves are vital, as they reduce material […]
One of the major concerns faced by pipeline systems in chemical, electric power, pharmaceutical, and other industries is corrosive media, such as strong alkalis, acids, and organic solvents. Chemical valves, like fluorine lined and pinch valves, are designed to prevent leaks, extend equipment life, and ensure production safety. Pinch valve for chemical processing is commonly […]
Mining is a highly demanding industry. It requires reliable and extremely durable valves to control the movement of sludges, suspensions, and bulk materials, which can be very abrasive. A heavy-duty pinch valve is a type of slurry valve that is best for mining tailings because of its flexible sleeve design, proven reliability, and clear flow […]
Fluid control in industries is an essential part of larger operations. And this control is provided by valves. There are plenty of differentiable industrial valves such as the ball valve, gate valve or the butterfly valve. And each of these valves have their own differences and pros. Industries like those with chemical plants or Oil/Gas industries […]
Stainless steel ball valves are known for their durability and high temperature resistance. These valves use a rotating hollow ball to control fluid flow. The alloy layer of stainless steel/nickel and chromium allow these valves to be used in chemical and oil/gas plants. These valves have many different types with each valve either differentiating in […]
Ball valves made of stainless steel find extensive use in a variety of industrial domains, ranging from water treatment and medical equipment to food and beverage manufacturing and chemical processing. These valves are extremely ideal for applications involving corrosive fluids or gases because of their outstanding strength, resilience to corrosion, durability, and dependability. This blog […]
