Globe Valve (GV)
How does a globe valve work?
A globe valve – often referred to as an open/close valve or shut-off valve – controls the opening and closing of flow openings or medium pipes, and is used to regulate the flow in fluid and gas installations. Globe valves are operated manually using a hand wheel, by a motor, or by an external drive, which can be pneumatic, electric or magnetic. While ball valves are shut off with a hand movement, the flow is continuously throttled by axial rotation of the spindle in stroke valves, while the cross-sectional area of the valve opening is gradually reduced until the shut-off cone rests flat on the valve seat and interrupts the media flow.
Can a globe valve also be used for flow regulation?
The globe or shut-off valve is intended to achieve both full flow and full shut-off of flow. To achieve shut-off, a shut-off cone rests flat on the valve seat and is pressed against the medium flow. A controlled medium flow is not possible with a shut-off valve.
