How to Maintain Gate Valves One of the best ways to ensure your Valves will work properly, is doing regular maintenances to them. Follow this tips to have fully functioning Valves Use Lubrication. Over time a steel gate valve can begin to stick. If a problem were to occur and [...]
There are various factors on how to classify gate valves, such as (1) Disks; (2) Body Bonnet Joint; and (3) Stem movement. Type of Gate Valves based on disk: Solid Wedge – It is the most common & widely used disk types because of its simplicity and strength. A valve [...]
Now that we have some basic knowledge of what a Gate Valve is and how it works, let’s see how it is made and its parts. Body – it is also called This is the primary pressure boundary of a valve. It serves as the principal element of a valve assembly because [...]
GUIDELINES TO PURCHASE AN ACTUATORConsider these variables when purchasing your actuators.Consider the motion profile. This will determine your need on minimum and maximum speed requirements.Load calculation. It is important to consider different components like friction load, inertial load, the external applied load and others. Note: calculations will also depend on the orientation of the actuator.Duty [...]
TIPS ON HOW TO CHOOSE ACTUATORS Knowledge on parameters such as loading, stroke length, timing, and others, are important in picking powered actuators. Many of these parameters have limits as to speed and force and narrowing the selection in this manner can bring the appropriate technology into focus. It also needs to keep in [...]
Electric Linear Actuators are electrically powered, mechanical devices consisting of motors, linear guides, and drive mechanisms, used to convert electrical energy into linear displacement through mechanical transmission, electro-magnetism, or thermal expansion to provide straight line push/pull motion. They are used in a wide range of industries where linear positioning is needed. The actuators are driven [...]
Safety should always be your first concern when running a pump in your facility. Follow these Guidelines to ensure your pump is running properly and avoid extra costs on repairs and replacements.
