Modulating valves Self Operated valves On-Off valves
On-Off valves just put the flow on or off . On the other word, let the flow medium run or stop. There types of valves are mainly used for sequential control or rough control like air conditioning. Self-operated valves operate receiving energy from fluid pressure of fluid temperature. It has high responsibility but generally is not good at accuracy.
Modulating valves are moreover categorized into 2 types.
Control valves
Control valves operate receiving energy from compressed air, electric power, etc. used with controllers and sensors. Control valves and related equipment realizes most accurate control.
Control Valves
Introduction
What Is A Control Valve? The control valve manipulates a flowing fluid, such as gas, steam, water, or chemical compounds, to compensate for the load disturbance and keep the regulated process variable as close as possible to the desired set point. The control valve assembly typically consists of the: * Valve body * The internal trim parts * An actuator to provide the motive power to operate the valve * A variety of additional valve accessories, which can include positioners, transducers, supply pressure regulators, manual operators, snubbers, or limit switches.

Cv calculation
When you decide port size of control valve, you need to calculate required Cv value with fluid condition given on control valve data sheet. Then, you can specify appropriate Rated Cv value and port size. At this chapter, most popular Cv calculation formula that is established by FCI (Fluid Controls Institute, Inc.) is introduced. What is Cv value ? One of the popular coefficients that express flow capacity. Cv value us defined as follows. Fl Flow rate of f 60 degF d F (15 (15.6 6 degC) d C) clean l water with i h the h unit i of f US gal/ l/ min at differential pressure of 1 psi and specific travel of valve. -Rated Cv value: Cv value at a valve is fully opened. -Required Cv value: Cv value calculated with fluid condition

Flow Control Characteristics As the actuator moves the valve plug through its travel range, the unobstructed flow area changes in size and shape depending on the contour of the valve plug. When a constant pressure differential is maintained across the valve, the changing relationship between percentage of maximum flow capacity and percentage of total travel range can be portrayed , and is designated as the inherent flow characteristic of f the th valve. l Commonly specified inherent flow characteristics include: * Linear Flow Characteristic * Equal-Percentage Flow Characteristics * Quick-Opening Flow Characteristic

The control valve regulates the rate of fluid flow as the position of the valve plug or disk is changed by force from the actuator. To do this, the valve must: * Contain the fluid without external leakage; q capacity p y for the intended service; ; * Have adequate * Be capable of withstanding the erosive, corrosive, and temperature influences of the process; and * Incorporate appropriate end connections to mate with adjacent pipelines and actuator attachment means to permit transmission of actuator thrust to the valve plug stem or rotary shaft.

Most Popular type Valve plug has only one seat to shut-of fluid Seat leakage is low even though it has metal seat Unbalancing fluid force is higher than pressure balancing p g type yp When required valve size is lower than 2 inch, This type is most advantageous because small sized actuator can be mounted. That means price is reasonable. When required size is larger than 2 inch, generally, price is not reasonable because the larger the valve size is, the bigger the actuators size is comparing single seated type to pressure balancing type.

The valve plug is guided at top and bottom. Pressure balanced type. This type is used mainly for oil refinery industry. Generally, seat leakage is larger than single seated valves.

Cage valve
FIDEC
(Training Center)
This type comes after single seated type in market. Valve plug is guided by cage (shaped like pipe and set in valve body. It has window that consists of flow characteristics.) Pressure balanced type is more popular than unbalanced type. For pressure balanced cage type, actuator size is smaller than single seated type when body size is same. Therefore price is more competitive than single seated type when valve size larger than 3 inch or used with highhigh pressure rating. This type can reduce cavitation erosion and aerodynamic noise that are typical control valve claim. Generally, seat leakage is larger than single seated valve.

Pneumatically operated control valve actuators are the most popular type in use, but electric, hydraulic, and manual actuators are also widely used. The spring-and-diaphragm pneumatic actuator is most commonly specified due to its dependability and simplicity of design. Pneumatically operated piston actuators provide high stem force output for demanding service conditions.
