Industries need to move substances through pipes. Pipes need valves to control the flow. They also need fittings to join pipes and make turns. Industrial pipes, valves, and fittings are known as industrial PVF.
The Right Industrial Piping Depends on The Purpose
Many types of industrial piping are available for different purposes. Pipes used for fluids at high temperatures and pressures must be strong enough to handle the heat and pressure. Corrosive or flammable substances also need special piping designed to handle them. Pipes used for drinking water must not leach toxic chemicals. Pipes can be made of flexible tubes or solid substances like metal or plastic.
Valves Control the Flow of the Substance
Valves can be used to turn the flow on or off or to adjust the flow of the substance. They are available in a wide variety of types for different purposes, including ones designed to handle conditions such as high temperatures or high pressures. Some valves are equipped with sensors to control the flow automatically.
Fittings Make Bends, Connect Pipes, and More
The term fittings include several items designed to join pipes or modify plumbing systems. Bends or elbows are fittings designed to form bends in non-flexible piping. Caps and plugs are designed to close the ends of pipes. Several other types of fittings are available for specific purposes.
