The document discusses various types of valves used to control fluid flow, including their functions such as starting/stopping flow, regulating volume, preventing backflow, and pressure control. It categorizes valves into different types, such as gate, globe, ball, and check valves, along with their specific applications and operational characteristics. Additionally, it briefly mentions specialized valves for specific purposes in different systems.

safety valves
and relief
valves
● Safety valves are primarily
used with compressible gases
and in particular for steam and
air services .
● Relief valves are commonly
used in liquid systems

36. Pressure Relief
Valves
● Releases excess
pressure to protect
system.
● Use with Gases &
Vapors & liquid.
● Open Full at once at set
pressure.
● Outlet port larger than
inlet port.
● Never adjust whilst in 36

Type of
Pressure
Relief Valve
● Safety valve :Used with compressible
gases .steam and air services .
● Relief valve : Used in liquid systems. as
pressure overspill devices .
● Safety relief valve : used either for
liquid or compressible fluid.

47. OTHER TYPES
OF VALVES
1. Ceramic disc valve used mainly in heavy duty
cyclic applications for abrasive fluids ceramic disc
can also provide class 4 leakage
2. Clapper valve used in appliances like siamese fire
application to allow only one hose to connected
instead of two blocks the other side from leaking
out
3. Needle valve to accurate flow control
4. Poppet valve used in piston engine to regulate fuel
mixture intake and exhaust.

48. 5. Spool valve for hydraulic control
6. Aspin valve it is a cone shaped metal part fitted to
the cylinder head of an engine
7. Blast valve prevents rapid overpressuring in a
fallout shelter or a bunker.
8. Heimlich valve a specific one way valve used on the
end of chest drain tubes to treat a pneumothorax
9. Four way valve used to control the flow of a steam
to the cylinder of early double acting steam engines

49. 10. Heart valve regulates blood flow through
The heart in many organisms
11. Larner johnson valve needle control valve
Often in large sizes used in water supply systems
12. Leaf valve one way valve consisting of diagonal
obstruction with an opening covered by hinge flap
13. Schrader valve used to hold air inside automobile
tires
14. Tesla valve a form of check valve with no moving
parts invented by nikola tesla for use with fluids

50. 15. Swirl valve a specially designed joule
thompson pressure reduction/ expansion
valve imparting a centrifugal force upon
the discharge stream for improving gas
liquid phase separation
16. Saddle valve where allowed is used to
tap a pipe for a low flow need
17. Solenoid valve an electrically controlled
hydraulic or pneumatic valve
18. Pilot valve regulates flow or pressure to
other valves

51. 19. Presta valves are used to
hold air in bicycle tires
20. Reed valve consists of two
or more flexible materials
pressed together along much
of their length but wit influx are
open to allow one way flow
much like a heart valve
