What Is an Industrial Valve? Classification, Applications, and Operating Principles – Phuc Minh Engineering

Industrial valves play a crucial role in ensuring the smooth operation of modern pipeline systems, from large-scale manufacturing plants to daily water supply systems. They help control flow, regulate pressure, and protect equipment, contributing to safe and efficient system operation.

In this article, Phuc Minh Engineering—a leading distributor of genuine industrial valves in Vietnam—will help you better understand industrial valves: their definition, classification, operating principles, and real-world applications.

What Is an Industrial Valve?

An industrial valve is a mechanical device installed in pipelines to control the flow of fluids. Fluids can include liquids (water, oil, chemicals), gases (compressed air, gas), or even slurry and powder.

Main Functions of Industrial Valves:

Fully open/close fluid flow
Regulate fluid flow rate
Adjust system pressure, protect equipment
Switch flow direction
Prevent incidents such as overpressure or backflow

Phuc Minh Engineering offers expert consultation on selecting the right valve to optimize system efficiency, reduce operating costs, and extend equipment lifespan.

Classification of Industrial Valves

By Function:

Shut-off valves: Ball valves, gate valves, butterfly valves, globe valves, knife gate valves
Flow control valves: Needle valves, angle valves
Safety valves: Safety valves, pressure reducing valves, relief valves, check valves
Special valves: Strainers, drain valves

By Structure:

Ball Valve: Uses a perforated ball to open/close flow
Butterfly Valve: Uses a rotating disc to regulate flow
Gate Valve: Uses a sliding gate to control flow
Globe Valve, Needle Valve, Diaphragm Valve, Disc Valve

By Material:

Stainless Steel Valves (304, 316, 316L): Corrosion-resistant, for food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals
Steel Valves: High durability, for oil & gas, heavy industries
Brass Valves: Corrosion-resistant, used in HVAC, compressed air
Plastic Valves (PVC, UPVC, CPVC): Lightweight, chemical-resistant, affordable

By Operation Method:

Manual Valves: Hand lever, handwheel
Automatic Valves: Electric, pneumatic, hydraulic actuators

Phuc Minh Engineering supplies a full range of industrial valves from trusted brands such as Kitz, Toyo, Samwoo, Wonil, Genebre, and Ayvaz.

Real-World Applications of Industrial Valves

5 Common Mistakes in Steam Trap Installation That Factories Often Encounter

13/07/2025

In industrial steam systems, steam traps play a crucial role in discharging condensate and air while retaining live steam to optimize system efficiency. However, many factories still face steam loss, energy waste, or equipment damage due to improper steam trap installation. Below are the 5 most common mistakes that engineers and plant operators should avoid: 1. Choosing the Wrong Type of Steam Trap for the Application Many factories select steam traps based on habit or reference from other systems without considering specific factors such as condensate load, pressure, temperature, and the type of steam equipment (e.g., heating, drying, heat exchangers). Real-life example: Using a float trap for a main steam line is inappropriate because float traps are not suitable for large condensate loads or high-pressure systems. Recommendation: Conduct a thorough system survey and select the correct type of trap: float, thermodynamic, inverted bucket, disc, etc., depending on the application. 2. Installing Steam Traps in the Wrong Direction or Position
