Food and beverage applications must meet a variety of process temperature and pressure control requirements to maintain the tight temperatures that ensure product quality and safety. Selecting the ...

Balancing valves are a critical component to ensure all our coils can reach their design flow rate when the building needs it’s maximum heating/cooling capacity. But majority of the season, our HVAC ...

On/off valves are basically on/off switches for hydraulic systems. They are typically installed in applications where precise position or speed control is not required. Proportional valves adjust flow ...

Motion-control valves solve troublesome equipment-instability problems. • Overcenter, or motion-control valves, are well suited for load holding and control. • Standard overcenter valves can solve the ...

HVAC systems that regulate temperature and air quality to keep enclosed areas warm in wintertime typically depend on natural gas combustion to sustain boilers, pumps, radiators, meters, and other ...

Like so many of the core technologies integral to automated industrial operations—such as motors, drives, and I/O—valves don’t always receive the attention they deserve in the automation arena.

Identify the forces that act on closure components and actuators. Describe how these forces work in the positioning of closure components. Prepare equations required to determine an actuator (i.e.
