Description

A globe valve is designed to regulate flow with high precision. It features a disc and seat within a spherical body and provides accurate throttling—making it suitable for pipelines requiring pressure control.

Features

  • Control Capability: Excellent for throttling and pressure regulation
  • Body Shape: T-shaped or Y-shaped
  • Disc Types: Plug, needle, or ball
  • Position Feedback: Provides clear open/close indication
  • Sealing: Tight shutoff when fully closed
  • Connections: Flanged, socket weld, or threaded
  • Material Options: Cast iron, stainless steel, brass, bronze
  • Flow Direction: Typically unidirectional

Advantages

  • Precise flow regulation — ideal for throttling applications
  • Good sealing performance — especially in high-pressure systems
  • Quick to operate — faster than gate valves in many designs
  • Easier to repair — due to top-entry bonnet and simple internals
  • Durable in frequent-use systems — handles repetitive cycles well

Limitations

  • Higher pressure drop — due to directional change in flow
  • Less efficient when used in fully open/close applications
  • Larger and heavier than equivalent valves
  • Unidirectional — incorrect installation may damage system
  • Higher cost compared to gate valves
