Water Valves

Ball Valves
A ball valve is a flow control device which uses a hollow, perforated and pivoting ball to control liquid flowing through it. Ball valves are durable, performing well after many cycles, and reliable, closing securely even after long periods of disuse.
Butterfly Valves
A butterfly valve is a valve that isolates or regulates the flow of a fluid. The closing mechanism is a disk that rotates.Butterfly valves are generally favoured because they cost less than other valve designs, and are lighter weight so they need less support.
Choke Valves
Hydraulic pumps are used in hydraulic drive systems and can be hydrostatic or hydrodynamic. A hydraulic pump is a mechanical source of power that converts mechanical power into hydraulic energy (hydrostatic energy i.e. flow, pressure).
Check Valves
A check valve, non-return valve, reflux valve, retention valve, foot valve, or one-way valve is a valve that normally allows fluid (liquid or gas) to flow through it in only one direction. Check valves are often used with some types of pumps.
Gate Valves
A gate valve, also known as a sluice valve, is a valve that opens by lifting a barrier out of the path of the fluid. Gate valves require very little space along the pipe axis and hardly restrict the flow of fluid when the gate is fully opened.
Globe Valves
A globe valve, different from ball valve, is a type of valve used for regulating flow in a pipeline, consisting of a movable plug or disc element and a stationary ring seat in a generally spherical body.
Pressure Reducing
Valves
A pressure-reducing valve is a self-operating valve that is used to reduce any excess pressure in a system. Sometimes this valve is also known as pressure reducing regulator. The basic function of pressure-reducing valves is to reduce higher pressure into lower. They are commonly used in water, steam, and oil & gas industries
Piston
Valves
A “piston valve” is a device used to control the motion of a fluid along a tube or pipe by means of the linear motion of a piston within a chamber or cylinder
Plug
Valves
Plug valves are valves with cylindrical or conically tapered “plugs” which can be rotated inside the valve body to control flow through the valve. The plugs in plug valves have one or more hollow passageways going sideways through the plug, so that fluid can flow through the plug when the valve is open. Plug valves are simple and often economical.
Solenoid Valves
A solenoid valve is an electromechanically operated valve. Solenoids offer fast and safe switching, high-reliability, long service life, good medium compatibility of the materials used, low control power and compact design.
Spool Valves
Spool valves can be used in both hydraulics (where the oil is the energy source) or Pneumatics (where the air is the energy source) and their job is to control the flow direction of the energy source by combining or switching the paths through which the oil or air can travel.
