2 Way Cooling Type Control Valve Manufacturer in Africa

Product Introduction

Stabilizing the temperatures within cooling systems needs to be done through precise control of the cooling water and other forms of heat exchange medium. A 2 Way Cooling Type Control Valve will automatically control the flow of the cooling medium in heat exchangers, condensers, cooling systems and process equipment to keep up with the specified operating temperature. This control valve will keep varying its position in response to commands coming from the control system to facilitate effective heat transfer at reduced energy usage. African Valve is a Prominent 2 Way Cooling Type Control Valve Manufacturer in Africa that manufactures and supplies 2 Way Cooling Type Control Valves in different materials, pressure rating, trim types and actuators for projects in Nigeria, Egypt, South Africa, Kenya, Ghana, and other African Countries.

Why Is a 2 Way Cooling Type Control Valve Used?

2 Way Cooling Type Control Valve is employed for controlling the flow of the cooling fluid passing through the system based on process requirement. In accordance with changes in operating temperatures, this valve automatically controls the flow so as to ensure that the required temperature level is maintained. It enhances cooling effectiveness, reduces water wastage, and also safeguards equipment from overheating. Such type of valves is usually fitted in cooling water systems, condensers, heat exchangers, process cooling circuits, and utility systems.

Design & Working Principle

The Valve is made up of a two-port globe body, a precisely machined valve plug, a seat ring, a stem, an actuator, and a positioner. The positioner will be controlled by a temperature controller or process control system by sending a signal to the actuator, causing it to move the stem vertically, thus positioning the valve plug. This opens up the flow path to varying degrees, thus providing accurate control of the cooling fluid. Depending on the needs of the application, the valve can come with either pneumatic or electrical actuators.

The valve is manufactured using:

Carbon Steel – ASTM A216 WCB / ASTM A105
