Common Applications of Sleeve Valves
1. Water Treatment and Distribution
- Sleeve valves are heavily used by both private and public water systems to regulate the water flow inside pipes and water storage tanks. Sleeve valves are capable of controlling water discharge and preventing surges during distribution for various pressure levels. Thus, they are perfect for controlling water level reservoirs.
2. Hydropower Plants and Dams
- At the power plants and dam constructions, sleeve valves are essential for controlled safe water discharge while maintaining pressure balance. They also smoothen the flow of water in and out of the machines and thus greatly reduce the erosion and structural damage caused by water release.
3. Industrial Cooling Systems
- In-sleeve valves, the use of it is appropriate for circulation of coolant in power stations and manufacturing plants. Treated water, chemicals, and other liquids can be corrosively handled and controlled through these valves, due to the durable materials which minimize corrosion.
4. Process Industries
- Pharmaceutical corporations, chemical processing plants, and oil refineries all employ sleeve valves for their accuracy in fluid control. The capability of these valves to contain hazardous chemicals without causing any damage aids safe and smooth operations.
