Globe Valves

04 02 2022

Globe valves rely upon a flat or tapered plug moving perpendicular to the pipe. They can be used for isolation or throttling flow and are well suited for controlling flow.

Globe valves are very simple in operation. Rotating the stem raises the plug off the seat, allowing line media to flow. Lowering the plug onto the seat throttles or shuts off the valve.

Valve bonnets can be adapted to accommodate varying application temperatures.
The turn-down ratio and repeatability of globe valves will be better than the equivalent ball or butterfly valve.
The ability to select different plug and seat configurations allows tailoring valve selection to meet the desired flow curve.
