Needle Valve

Needle Valve Manufacturer

A needle valve is used to accurately control flow rates of clean gasses or liquids. Gradual adjustments of the stem and plunger enable smooth flow control. These valves generally have low flow rates and a relatively significant pressure drop from the inlet to the outlet. The most common application of a needle valve is to control gas flow

Advantages

  • Accurate flow control, especially for applications involving a low flow rate.
  • Small size.

Needle valve uses

  • Needle valves have a use across all fluid control applications due to their ability to precisely control flow rates.
  • By selecting the appropriate valve material and size for temperature and pressure, they can be used for almost any clean gas or fluid.
  • One of the most common uses of needle valves is to monitor gas flow, like propane, in a system.

Needle Valves Applications Areas

  • Needle valves are used in dams, reservoirs, power plants, and water distribution systems for controlling water pressure and flow rate.
  • Needle valves are employed in automated combustion control systems to regulate fuel flow.
  • These valves are commonly used to shut off a pressure gauge or control the flow rate in flow metering devices.
  • Needle valves control the flow of air to cylinders to control piston speed.
