Product Overview
Anshore Globe Valves are linear motion valves designed for regulating, throttling, and stopping fluid flow in pipelines. Characterized by a spherical-shaped body, the valve uses a movable disc or plug which moves perpendicularly to the seat to control flow, offering precise throttling capabilities and tight shutoff.
Key Features
- Design Variants: Available in T- or Z-shaped (standard), angle, and Y-pattern bodies to suit different piping and flow requirements.
- Construction: Made from carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel with bolted bonnets and packing glands for secure sealing and maintenance.
- Flow Control: Provides excellent throttling control due to the linear movement of the disc, suitable for precise flow regulation even under high pressure and temperature.
- Pressure & Temperature: Handles a wide pressure range (up to 1500 psi or more) and temperature extremes (-425°F to 1100°F) depending on material and design.
- Sealing: Metal-to-metal or soft seat options ensuring tight closure and minimal leakage.
- Operation: Manual handwheel or powered actuators such as pneumatic, hydraulic, or electric systems for remote control.
- Standards: Designed to comply with ASME B16.34, API 623, API 600, and BS 1873 ensuring durability, safety, and reliability.
- Applications: Widely used in steam systems, water treatment, power plants, chemical processing, and HVAC systems.
Advantages
- Highly precise flow control and modulation
- Reliable shutoff with minimal leakage
- Resists shocks and vibrations
- Suitable for frequent operation and vacuum conditions
- Top-entry design facilitates easy maintenance and packing replacement without removing the valve body
