VALVES

Cristiani Bisconti | Valves

Valves are essential mechanical devices used to control the flow of fluids (liquids and gases) within a system. They regulate, direct or block flow by opening, closing or partially obstructing passages within the valve.

Made of materials such as steel, cast iron, brass, bronze, plastic and composite materials, they are selected according to the specific needs of the application, considering factors such as pressure, temperature, fluid type and operating conditions. There are various types of valves, including ball, butterfly, globe, gate, check and control valves, each with specific characteristics and applications.

Used in a wide range of industries such as the chemical, petrochemical, energy, hydraulic, food and pharmaceutical industries, they are essential to ensure precise flow control, plant safety and operational efficiency.
