A control valve is a valve used to control fluid flow by varying the size of the flow passage as directed by a signal from a controller. [1] This enables the direct control of flow rate and the consequential control of process quantities such as pressure , temperature , and liquid level.
Process control instrumentation and designation (names, numbers, unique tag identifiers), including: Valves and their types and identifications (e.g. isolation, shutoff, relief and safety valves, valve interlocks) Control inputs and outputs (sensors and final elements, interlocks)
To change this template's initial visibility, the |state= parameter may be used: {{Fire protection | state = collapsed}} will show the template collapsed, i.e. hidden apart from its title bar. {{Fire protection | state = expanded}} will show the template expanded, i.e. fully visible.
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.
Hazards of a control system must be identified then analysed through risk analysis. Mitigation of these risks continues until their overall contribution to the hazard are considered acceptable. The tolerable level of these risks is specified as a safety requirement in the form of a target 'probability of a dangerous failure' in a given period ...
Gate valve, mainly for on–off control, with low pressure drop; Globe valve, good for regulating flow. Uses a cylinder movement over a seat; Knife valve, similar to a gate valve, but usually more compact. Often used for slurries or powders on–off control; Needle valve for accurate flow control; Pinch valve, for slurry flow regulation and ...
An example SDS, including guidance for handling a hazardous substance and information on its composition and properties. A safety data sheet (SDS), [1] material safety data sheet (MSDS), or product safety data sheet (PSDS) is a document that lists information relating to occupational safety and health for the use of various substances and products.
