Difference between Quick Opening, Linear & Equal Percentage Control Valve characteristics
Each valve has a flow characteristic, which describes the relationship between the flow rate and valve travel. As a valve
Thermostatic Valves Working Principle
Thermostatic valves are used for the infinite, proportional regulation of flow quantity, depending on the setting and the sensor temperature. The
Direct Acting Control Valves & Reverse Acting Control Valves
Actuators may be categorized as ‘direct acting’ or ‘reverse acting’ and some configurations are indicated in Below Figure. In a reverse acting actuator an increase
