  2. Gate valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gate_valve

    At high pressures, friction can become a problem. As the gate is pushed against its guiding rail by the pressure of the medium, it becomes harder to operate the valve. Large gate valves are sometimes fitted with a bypass controlled by a smaller valve to be able to reduce the pressure before operating the gate valve itself. Gate valves without ...

    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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gatehouse_(waterworks)

    A gatehouse, gate house, outlet works or valve house for a dam is a structure housing sluice gates, valves, or pumps (in which case it is more accurately called a pumping station). Many gatehouses are strictly utilitarian, but especially in the nineteenth century, some were very elaborate.

  5. Gate (hydraulic engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gate_(hydraulic_engineering)

    When using a gate, one thing that is used in certain applications such as manufacturing, mining, and others is the gate valve. Fluids will run through the valve to help lubricate the moving parts of a machine, transmit power, close off openings to moving parts, and to assist evaporating the amount of heat coming through.

  6. Sluice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sluice

    A fully automatic type, controlled by the pressure head across it; operation is similar to that of a check valve. It is a gate hinged at the top. When pressure is from one side, the gate is kept closed; a pressure from the other side opens the sluice when a threshold pressure is surpassed. Vertical rising sluice gate

  7. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    These types of valves include globe valves, rising stem ball valves, control valves and gate valves. [2] The two main types of linear actuators are diaphragm and piston. Diaphragm actuators are made out of a round piece of rubber and squeezed around its edges between two side of a cylinder or chamber that allows air pressure to enter either ...
