Therefore, suitable (globe valves) for such working conditions should be selected, such as high pressure and high temperature (globe valves), corrosion-resistant (globe valves), etc.

2. Chemical industry

The chemical industry involves various chemical reactions and medium treatments, and the selection requirements for (globe valves) are more stringent. For different chemical media, such as acid, alkali, salt, etc., corresponding materials (shut-off valves) should be selected to ensure the safe and stable operation of the equipment.

3. Natural gas industry

The demand for shut-off valves in the natural gas industry is mainly concentrated in gas pipelines and urban gas systems. This type of working condition requires high sealing and anti erosion performance of (globe valve), and high-performance (globe valve) should be selected, such as high-pressure sealing (globe valve), anti erosion (globe valve), etc.

4、 Technical parameter analysis of specialized (globe valve) in the petrochemical industry

1. Medium parameters

When selecting a globe valve, attention should be paid to parameters such as the type of medium, temperature, and pressure. Different media have different requirements for the material and structure of (globe valves), such as high temperature, high pressure, corrosive media, etc.

2. Structural parameters

The structural parameters of a globe valve include valve diameter, valve type, connection method, etc. When selecting, appropriate structural parameters should be selected based on actual needs to meet the process requirements of the device.

3. Material parameters

The material of the shut-off valve has a significant impact on the performance and service life of the equipment. Suitable materials such as stainless steel and alloy steel should be selected based on factors such as medium characteristics, temperature, and pressure.
