“5 Key Factors for Selecting Industrial Valves”

Choosing the right valve involves:

1. Pressure Rating (PSI/Bar compatibility)
2. Fluid Type (corrosive/abrasive media handling)
3. Temperature Range (-320°F to 1,800°F capabilities)
4. Actuation (manual, pneumatic, or electric)
5. Certifications (ISO 9001, PED, SIL-3)
   Globe valves excel in flow throttling, while butterfly valves optimize space-constrained systems. Partner with manufacturers offering CFD simulations and material traceability for long-term reliability. Proper selection reduces maintenance costs by up to 40%.
