Industrial Valves for Chemical and Process Industries
High-Quality Valves for Flow Control, Safety, and Precision
Overview
Valves are critical components used to control the flow of liquids, gases, or semi-fluids in industrial, chemical, and pilot plant processes. They regulate flow, pressure, and temperature while ensuring safety, efficiency, and reliability.
At Atommek, we design and manufacture valves to meet international standards, fully customizable to your system requirements. Our valves are made from certified materials such as AISI 304, 316, 316L stainless steel, carbon steel, nickel alloys, and composites, ensuring durability and chemical resistance.
Our valves are compatible with Mixing Vessels, Pilot Reactors, Pilot Mills, Tubular Heat Exchangers, Mobile Tanks, and other Atommek equipment. Optional integration with sensors, PLC systems, or automation panels is available for precise process control.
How Valves Work
Valves control fluid flow by opening, closing, or partially obstructing passageways. Depending on the type, they can:
- Start or stop fluid flow (On-Off valves)
- Adjust flow rates (Regulator valves)
- Prevent backflow (Check valves)
- Control pressure and release excess pressure (Safety valves)
Automation allows valves to operate remotely, adjusting flow and pressure in real-time according to process requirements.
Top 7 Types of Valves for Chemical Industry
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| Butterfly Valves | Ideal for open/close actions with minimal installation effort; lightweight and precise; can slow flow but may require attention for tight sealing. |
| Ball Valves | Form excellent seals, durable, suitable for low flow, gases, and vapors; available in single, split, three-piece, welded, or top-entry designs. |
| Gate Valves | Completely open or close flow; available in parallel or wedge shapes; takes minimal space along the pipe axis. |
| Globe Valves | Spherical body; manual or automatic; regulates flow and pressure; can fully shut off flow. |
| Check Valves | One-way flow only; prevents backflow and protects downstream systems. |
| Plug Valves | Rotating plug to start/stop or regulate flow; cylindrical or conical; high-pressure resistant and cost-effective. |
| Actuated Valves | Operated pneumatically, electrically, or hydraulically; adaptive to various piping systems and low-pressure applications. |
