A Flange Connection Lifting Plug Valve is a specialized type of plug valve designed for controlling the flow of fluids in a piping system. It features a unique lifting mechanism that combines the functions of a plug valve and a gate valve, allowing for tight sealing and smooth operation. The valve is equipped with flanged ends, making it easy to install and connect to flanged piping systems. This type of valve is commonly used in applications requiring reliable flow control, high pressure, and high temperature, such as in oil and gas, chemical processing, and power generation industries.
Key Features:
-
Flange Connection:
-
Features flanged ends for easy installation and connection to flanged piping systems.
-
Provides a secure and leak-proof connection, suitable for high-pressure applications.
-
-
Lifting Mechanism:
-
Combines the functions of a plug valve and a gate valve, allowing the plug to lift before rotating, reducing wear and ensuring a tight seal.
-
The lifting action minimizes friction between the plug and the valve seat, extending the valve's lifespan.
-
-
Material:
-
Constructed from durable materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or alloy steel, depending on the application and fluid compatibility.
-
Offers resistance to high pressure, high temperature, and corrosion.
-
-
Operation:
-
Operated manually (via handwheel or lever) or automatically (via pneumatic, hydraulic, or electric actuators).
-
The lifting and rotating mechanism ensures smooth operation and reliable sealing.
