Understanding Gate Valve Materials and Their Suitability
Gate valves are essential components in marine, industrial, and water pipeline systems. They control the flow of liquids and gases by lifting or lowering a flat or wedge-shaped gate inside the valve body. The material of a gate valve determines its durability, corrosion resistance, and applicatio...Read more -
Disadvantages of Y Strainer in Marine and Industrial Systems
Y Strainers are widely used in marine pipelines, HVAC systems, and industrial fluid systems to remove debris and protect pumps, valves, and other equipment. While Y Strainers provide reliable filtration and are easy to install, they also have some limitations and disadvantages that engineers and ...Read more -
The Complete Guide to Stainless Steel Globe Valve
Stainless steel is the main material used in its construction. It gives the valve excellent resistance to rust and chemical corrosion. This property makes stainless steel globe valves popular in industries like oil and gas, chemical processing, power generation, water treatment, and marine system...Read more -
What Are The Disadvantages of Wafer Check Valve
Wafer check valves are common in modern piping systems. They are light, compact, and easy to install. Many industries use them, such as water treatment, HVAC, chemical plants, and marine systems. These features make them attractive, but they are not perfect. Every valve design has weak points. Kn...Read more -
How Does Non-Rising Stem Gate Valve Work
A non-rising stem (NRS) gate valve is a type of valve where the handwheel and stem stay in a fixed position. The stem turns in place. The gate inside moves up or down. This design makes the valve compact. It is a good choice for places with limited space. How It Works Unlike a rising stem gate va...Read more -
What Happens When The Solenoid Valve Goes Bad
A solenoid valve is an electromechanical device that controls the flow of liquids or gases by using an electric current to move a plunger inside the valve body. These valves are widely used in industrial automation, marine systems, HVAC, irrigation, and water treatment because they offer precise,...Read more -
How Many Valves Are in Ship
The number of valves installed on a ship depends on the vessel’s size, type, and purpose—but in most cases, the figure is far higher than people expect. A small coastal vessel may have 200–500 valves, while large ocean-going tankers, LNG carriers, and naval ships often contain 1,000–3,000 valves ...Read more -
What Is a Mudbox On The Ship
In the maritime industry, a mudbox is a type of coarse strainer installed in a ship’s seawater or fluid intake systems. Its primary role is to filter out solid debris, marine growth, sand, silt, shells, and rust particles before these contaminants can enter pumps, heat exchangers, or other critic...Read more
