  • Valves in Irrigation Systems1 Dorota Z
    CIR824 Valves in Irrigation Systems1 Dorota Z. Haman and Fedro S. Zazueta2 The term “valve” applies to a variety of devices for control- ling the flow of liquid. Various valves allow for on-off control, modulation of the flow rate through the system, and prevention of back flow. They can also be used for pressure relief or as a safety device. In general, valves can vary from simple manual on-off devices to sophisticated control equipment which act as metering instruments and deliver predetermined amounts of water to the system. On-Off Service Valves For normal on-off control the best choices are gate, ball, and plug valves. The on-off service valves function by slid- ing or by turning a flat, cylindrical or spherical flow control element over an orifice in the valve body. Leakage past the flow control element is prevented by sealing or seating surfaces at the orifice. In the fully open position a passage through a gate, ball or plug valve is unrestricted resulting in a low pressure loss through the valve. Gate Valves Figure 1. Rising stem, solic wedge gate valve. A gate valve is the most common type of on-off service Other types of wedges can be used, such as split wedge, valve (Figure 1). Its flow control element is a disk or wedge double disk parallel wedge, or a combination of disks joined attached to the valve stem. There are various designs of by a ball and socket which are self-aligning to each of the these wedges with a solid wedge being the most common.

  • Ball Butterfly Check Gate Globe Plug Valves Differences Applications Suitability
    ADELAIDE • BRISBANE • PERTH VALVE TYPES There are a large variety of valves and valve configurations to suit all services and conditions; different uses (on/off, control), different fluids (liquid, gas etc; combustible, toxic, corrosive etc) different materials and different pressure and temperature conditions. Valves are for starting or stopping flow, regulating or throttling flow, preventing back flow or relieving and regulating pressure in fluid or gaseous handling applications. Common valve types include: Ball, Butterfly,Check, Diaphragm, Gate, Globe, Knife Gate, Parallel Slide, Pinch, Piston, Plug, Sluice, etc. The following types of valves are used in a variety of applications, these descriptions may provide a basic guideline in the selection of valves. BALL VALVES BUTTERFLY VALVES Because of their excellent operating The butterfly valve derives its name from the characteristics, ball valves are used for the wing-like action of the disc which operates at broadest spectrum of isolation applications and right angles to the flow. It’s main advantage is a are available in a wide range of sizes and seating surface which is not critical. It is materials and are available in full flow and full designed for flow isolation. The disc impinges through conduit. Advantages - quick acting, against a resilient liner to provide bubble straight through flow in either direction, low tightness with low operating torque.
