Template details and description

Template Type: equipment class
Is Abstract?
Description: A valve that can be used to modify (regulate) the fluid flow rate in a process control system. It usually includes an actuator, which responds to a signal from the controlling system and changes the position of the flow controlling element in the valve.

Child	Description
down hole safety valve	A valve that is intended for subsurface control/check operation.
deluge valve	A control valve that is intended to operate at high temperature, and admit water into a deluge system.
solenoid valve	A valve that has linear action which is fitted with a solenoid for quick operation.
motor operated valve	An operated valve that is opened and closed with a motor.
ball control valve	A ball valve that is equipped with an actuator that manipulates a stream of fluid in the response to a signal from an external sensing element and with input of energy from an external source.
butterfly control valve	A butterfly valve that is equipped with an actuator that manipulates a stream of fluid in the response to a signal from an external sensing element and with input of energy from an external source.
choke control valve	A choke valve that is equipped with an actuator that manipulates a stream of fluid in the response to a signal from an external sensing element and with input of energy from an external source.
diaphragm control valve	A diaphragm valve that is equipped with an actuator that manipulates a stream of fluid in the response to a signal from an external sensing element and with input of energy from an external source.
eccentric rotating disc control valve	A control valve that uses a rotating disc as closing element, and with a design that causes the disc to take a slightly eccentric path during actuation.
gate control valve	A control valve that is a gate valve and an actuated valve.
globe control valve	A control valve that is a globe valve and an actuated valve.
multiple orifice on-off valve	A valve not designed to regulate flow (e.g. on/off). A valve with multiple orifices or flow-restriction device to control fluid flow. Includes an actuator that needs auxiliary power to operate.
multiport on-off valve	A valve not designed to regulate flow (e.g. on/off). A multi port valve which has the possibility of multiple distinct paths for flow through it. Includes an actuator that needs auxiliary power to operate.
needle control valve	A needle valve that is equipped with an actuator that manipulates a stream of fluid in the response to a signal from an external sensing element and with input of energy from an external source.
plug control valve	A control valve that is also a plug valve and an actuated valve.
slide control valve	A slide valve that is equipped with an actuator that manipulates a stream of fluid in the response to a signal from an external sensing element and with input of energy from an external source.
