How a Globe Valve Works
A globe valve controls flow through the linear movement of a disc toward or away from a seat.
Opening Operation
- Handwheel rotates the stem.
- Disc moves upward.
- Flow passage gradually opens.
- Flow rate can be precisely controlled.
Closing Operation
- Stem lowers the disc.
- Disc contacts the seat ring.
- Tight shutoff is achieved.
- Flow is completely isolated.
This design provides excellent throttling characteristics compared to gate valves.
