What is angle globe valve?
The angle globe valve is a modification of the basic standard pattern globe valve where the ends are at an angle of 90 degrees. The Red Point® angle globe valves have a streamlined curved bore to create optimal flow and lower CV value.
What is the difference between globe valve and angle valve?
The fundamental difference between the two is that the fluid flow through the angle valve makes a 90° turn. These valves offer less resistance to flow than a globe valve with an elbow which it would replace. An angle valve reduces the number joints in a line, in addition to saving installation time.
Are globe and ball valves the same?
The main difference between ball and globe valves is the way they close. Ball valves have a stem and ball, which turns horizontally, and are commonly referred to as “rotational” valves. Whereas, globe valves have a stem and plug, which strokes linearly, and gives them their other name of “stroke” valves.
Why are globe valves good for throttling?
The globe disk moves up or down in relation to the stationary ring seat. Its disk or plug controls the amount of media that can pass through. The space between the seat and the ring allows the globe valve to function as a great throttling valve. There is less damage to the seat and disk or plug because of its design.
How do you know if a globe valve is open or closed?
Ball valves are perhaps the easiest valve to see if they are open or closed. If the handle on top is parallel to the valve, it’s open. Likewise, if the handle is perpendicular to the top, the valve is closed.
What is a globe valve used for?
Bronze globe valves for use in commercial and industrial applications. Typical services include hot and cold water, HVAC, steam, compressed air, gas and other general utility services.
