  2. Pressure regulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_regulator

    A water pressure regulating valve limits inflow by dynamically changing the valve opening so that when less pressure is on the outside, the valve opens up fully, and too much pressure on the outside causes the valve to shut. In a no pressure situation, where water could flow backwards, it won't be impeded. A water pressure regulating valve does ...

  3. High-integrity pressure protection system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-integrity_pressure...

    A high-integrity pressure protection system (HIPPS) is a type of safety instrumented system (SIS) designed to prevent over-pressurization of a plant, such as a chemical plant or oil refinery. The HIPPS will shut off the source of the high pressure before the design pressure of the system is exceeded, thus preventing loss of containment through ...

  4. Control valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_valve

    Shut-off / On-off valve: These valves are either completely open or closed. Examples: Gate valve, ball valve, globe valve, angle valve, pinch valve, diaphragm valve; Check valve: Allows flow only in a single direction; Steam conditioning valve: Regulates the pressure and temperature of inlet media to required parameters at outlet.

    A relief valve DN25 on cooling water pipe from heat exchanger Schematic diagram of a conventional spring-loaded pressure relief valve. A relief valve or pressure relief valve (PRV) is a type of safety valve used to control or limit the pressure in a system; excessive pressure might otherwise build up and create a process upset, instrument or equipment failure, explosion, or fire.

  6. Shutdown valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shutdown_valve

    A safety shutoff valve should be fail-safe, that is close upon failure of any element of the input control system (such as temperature controllers, steam pressure controllers), air pressure, fuel pressure, current from a flame detector, or current from other safety devices such as low water cutoff, and high pressure cutoff. A blowdown valve ...

  7. Surge control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surge_control

    These valves will remain closed until the inlet pressure exceeds the set point/nitrogen pressure, at which time the valve will open from the high pressure and remain open as long as the process pressure is above the nitrogen pressure. Once the process pressure starts to decay, the valve will start to close.

  8. List of valves - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_valves

    Used in oil and gas wellheads, where the pressure drop is high. (Not to be confused with engine choke valve, below.) Diaphragm valve or membrane valve, controls flow by movement of a diaphragm. Used in pharmaceutical applications; Gate valve, mainly for on–off control, with low pressure drop; Globe valve, good for regulating flow. Uses a ...

  9. Valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve

    The fill valve in a toilet water tank is a liquid level-actuated valve. When a high water level is reached, a mechanism shuts the valve which fills the tank. In some valve designs, the pressure of the flow fluid itself or pressure difference of the flow fluid between the ports automatically controls flow through the valve.
