   Tilting-disc inconel check valve Check valve symbol on piping and instrumentation diagrams.The arrow shows the flow direction. Vertical lift check valve. A check valve, non-return valve, reflux valve, retention valve, foot valve, or one-way valve is a valve that normally allows fluid (liquid or gas) to flow through it in only one direction.

3. Butterfly valve - Wikipedia

   Triply-eccentric butterfly valves (triple-offset butterfly valves) – the seats are either laminated or solid metal seat design. Butterfly valve with actuator electric valve - An electrically actuated butterfly valve is a quarter-turn valve controlled by an electric motor.

4. Isolation valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isolation_valve

   Isolation valves must effectively stop the passage of fluids. [4] Gate valves, ball valves and plug valves are generally considered to provide tight and effective shut-off. Globe valves and Butterfly valves may not be tight shut-off due to wear on the plug or the seat, or due to their design, and may not be appropriate to provide effective ...

   The inside of an extremely large butterfly valve Duplex ball valve Three check valves in corrosion-resistant Hastelloy Stainless steel gate valve. Valves can be categorized into the following types, based on their operating mechanism: Ball valve, for on–off control without pressure drop. Ideal for quick shut-off, since a 90° turn completely ...

7. Exhaust brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_brake

   The butterfly valve is actuated through hydraulic linkages. This consists of a hydraulic pressure pump which is connected to the butterfly valve. This pump controls the operation of butterfly valve in following manner: When brakes are applied by the driver, the cylinder reduces its pressure so that the valve closes and restricts the path of ...
