What Is A Diaphragm Valve?

Image
To convey material, the solenoid valve (top centre) makes a connection through the hose to the carrier vacuum. This sucks the diaphragm and opens the valve cover (coloured green).    The vacuum can now reach the material loader (blue arrow) and suck the material. If the container is full, the solenoid valve receives another impulse that closes the diaphragm valve. In order to convey material, a solenoid valve (above centre) creates a connection via a hose to the conveying vacuum. This sucks in the diaphragm and opens the valve closure (in green). The vacuum can now reach the material loader (blue arrows) and sucks up the material. If the container is full, the solenoid valve receives another impulse which closes the diaphragm valve.

When producing medical products, parts with delicate surfaces or electrical components, a truly clean production environment is a basic prerequisite. A lit

What are Damper Valves? And Working of Damper Valves.

Damper valves and it's working The damper valve is an important part of the air circulation system. Superior to the simple fan control system, long damping valve allows accurate directional flow control. The damper valve can also control the amount of material allowed to pass through the system and can work to isolate equipment from gas or airflow. The damper valve can be made of various types of steel - generally carbonized, galvanized, or stainless. They can also be constructed of plastic and/or aluminium. There are also various shapes and sizes of reducer valves available to suit various applications in various industries. From models that keep smoky outside air into the cabin of a passenger car to the heavy-duty industrial version used to prevent chemical plant explosions, the silencer valve serves the vital purpose of keeping the air system clean, safe and functioning properly. The two types of damper valves commonly used in the oil, gas and chemical i

What is a Valve? And Different Types of Valves Explained

Image
What is a valve? What are the different types of Valves in the market? A valve is a device that regulates, directs or controls fluid flow (gas, liquid, fluidized solids or slurry) by opening, closing, or partially blocking various aisles. Valves are technical fittings but are usually discussed as separate categories. In an open valve, the fluid flows in the direction from high pressure to low pressure. The simplest, and very ancient, the valve is simply a freely hinged flap which drops to obstruct fluid (gas or liquid) flow in one direction but is pushed open by flow in the opposite direction. This is called a check valve, as it prevents or "checks" the flow in one direction. Modern control valves may regulate pressure or flow downstream and operate on sophisticated automation systems. Valves have many uses, including controlling water for irrigation, industrial needs to control processes, use of housing such as on / off and pressure control for dishwash

OMG! Is This Happening | The Impact of Digital valves on the future of combustion engine.

The Impact of Digital valves on the future of combustion engine.  Want to know what is a Digital Valve ?. → Click Here Efficient hunting of engine valve technology can be endless trips to cam timings, various combustion cycles, and lift and duration adjustments. For that reason, some companies believe cam-less is a vision of future engine efficiency. British clothing by the name of Camcon Automotive sees this problem from a different angle. The electric, actually, as a prototype machine is the first example to be run with a valve that is completely digitally controlled. The Camcon approach to valve timing is very different. This is called Intelligent Valve Technology and utilizes a valve that is not connected to the crankshaft, so that the valve itself can operate independently.                  In addition, each valve has its own small camshaft, in contrast to the larger single or double camshafts usually found to control the entire valve bank.

What is a Digital Valve?

What is Digital Valve? The Digital Valve is a unique Mass Flow Control System (MFCS) designed for rapid and simultaneous fluid metering and control.  The MFCS consists of Digital Valve (DV) and Digital Control Unit (DVCU). Digital Valve (DV) is an array of parallel- arranged flow restrictions - usually nozzles or sonic holes - which each operate on / off (flow, no-flow). With this arrangement, the flow rate can be changed by adjusting the combination of open/closed elements. Each active element allows fluid to flow between the common entrance and exit space (plenums). Because the pressure drop between plenums is the same for all elements, the active element will flow at a rate proportional to the restrictor area. This results in a stream that will be "digitized" because each flow restrictor area is the precise fraction of the total flow. The Digital Valve Control Unit (DVCU) calculates and controls the mass flow known through the Digital V

Butterfly valves & Its types. Explained.

Image
What is a Butterfly valve? And Its Types The butterfly valve is a closing valve with a relatively simple construction. In a closed position, the disc blocks the valve hole when in the open position, the disc is rotated to allow flow. A quarter turn takes the valve from the fully open position to the fully closed, or opposite position, and thus the butterfly valve allows for quick opening and closing. Butterfly valves can be used for a variety of applications in water supply, wastewater treatment, fire protection and gas supply, in the chemical and oil industries, in fuel handling systems, power generation etc. Some advantages for this type of valve are that simple construction does not take up too much space, and is lightweight and costs less than other valve designs. Valves can be operated with handles, gears or actuators according to specific needs. Main design of butterfly valves      The butterfly valve can be centric or eccentric. In the butterfly valve centric (

Do You Know How does a pneumatic control valve positioner work? Here’s Explained.

Digital control valve positioners have started to dominate, yet you should even now know how a pneumatic control valve positioner functions. Fortunately, you just need some basic physics and little mechanical knowledge to understand it. Just take a look. The Pneumatic Control Valve Positioner’s Working Principle . The pneumatic control valve positioner and its valve actuator are controlled by an air supply. There is an instrument, with a range of 3 to 15 pounds for each square inch (psi), and the air output to move the valve actuator. In the instrument input, the air force will act on the bellows, causing it to compress or expand. The bellows connect with the beam, which measures the input from the valve stem through the cam. Likewise, it moves the flapper- nozzle system. Computerized control valve positioners have started to dominate, yet you should in any case know how a pneumatic control valve positioner functions. Fortunately, you just need some essential
