Globe Valve

Globe valves are suitable for both throttling flow control as well as shut-off. They are ideally installed in a way that the media pressure and preferred flow direction is under the disc.

Globe Valves are available with a variety of bonnet types, body and trim materials and stem packings in addition to a broad range of end connections including extended bodies and pressure classes ranging from 150# to 1500#.

Advantages

• Excellent shutoff capability
• Good throttling capability
• Easy to maintain or resurface the seats

Applications

Globe valves are used for applications requiring throttling and frequent operation, for instance in:

Systems where flow needs to be regulated and leak tightness is of utmost importance, i.e.:

• Cooling water systems
• Fuel oil systems

Markets:

• Water and Waste water industry
• Petro-Chemical industry
• Offshore
• Nuclear industry
