When it comes to controlling the flow of air and gases during some of a wide variety of industrial jobs, pneumatic control valves are used. It is vital to find the correct valve so you can be sure about operation go well. When you are selecting pneumatic control valves, there are several things to consider and if you know these things it can help you to make the right choice.

Why the Correct Length Is Important

It's really critical to properly size your pneumatic control valve in order to ensure the proper operation of your system. A valve that is too small may not allow sufficient air — and could also cause trouble. If the valve is too large, it can drop too much pressure and energy. Picking the right size allows the system to function as it should, enabling more products to be made and less energy to be consumed.

Factors to Consider When Selecting a Valve Size

When determining the size of pneumatic valves, you should consider what the system requires. You need to think about stuffs like how much air will flow, how much pressure is lost and what temperature is there? Once you know what the system requires, it becomes easier and easier to find the best valve size for ensuring that everything operates correctly and reliably.

Analysis on Pressure Drop and Flow Rates

The pressure drop across valves is essential, along with flow rates, when valves are sized. Pressure drop is the decrease in pressure as the gas passes through the valve, and flow rate is the amount of gas that passes through the valve in a given time. You can select the correct valve size that will maintain as it should if you consider the pressure drop and flow rate.

Size as Related to Valve Type and Actuator

The design of valve and actuator type are also important when sizing pneumatic control valves. Various valves, such as globe valves, ball valves, butterfly valves, have unique characteristics that can influence the sizing demands. There are also the type of actuator that drives the valve — pneumatic, electric or hydraulic — that can affect your size options. Considering what type of valve and actuator you have, you can even pick the right sizing to suit the system.

Improve Systems by Getting the Size Right

It's critical to select the proper size pneumatic valve actuator in order to make the system work better and perform well. The system can be operated perfectly by choosing the appropriate size depending on the system requirements such as pressure drop, flow rates, valve type and actuator. This can help to produce more products with less use of energy, and generally enhance the performance of the system. By focusing on these, and making informed decisions, CHYF can ensure their pneumatic control valves perform well and contain the system.
