Gate Valves Selection Guide: Types, Features, Applications
WEBGate valves are usually divided into two types: parallel and wedge-shaped. The parallel gate valve uses a flat disc gate between two parallel seats, upstream and downstream. Shut-off is obtained by the free-floating seat or disk gate allow the upstream pressure to seal the seat and disk against any unwanted seat leakage.
Bolts Selection Guide: Types, Features, Applications - GlobalSpec
WEBA bolt is a type of threaded hardware fastener that is used to position two workpieces in specific relation to each other. Bolts come in several configurations for their application and specification variances. Since the terms "bolt" and "screw" were in use before the advent of easily-produced helix fasteners, they are often synonymous.
Washers Selection Guide: Types, Features, Applications - GlobalSpec
WEBOther Common Types : Flat washers, also referred to as Type A plain washers, are thin, flat, and circular general-purpose washers with a centrally located hole. Standardized flat washers may be designed by the use of imperial or metric dimensions. Standard imperial washers include SAE washers, for use with fine threaded nuts and bolts, and USS flat washers, for use with coarse threaded bolts ...
Globe Valves Selection Guide: Types, Features, Applications
WEBFeatures. Globe valves are available with features for additional precision and safety. Positioners - Positioners allow operators to identify how open or closed the valve is for throttling. Limit switches - Limit switches limit how far the valve is able to open to close to protect the internal components of the valve.

Acting type is an additional specification.. With single-acting devices, fluid pressure actuates the valve in one direction while a compressed spring actuates the valve in the other.. With double-acting devices, fluid pressure ...
DC Motors Selection Guide: Types, Features, Applications
WEBDC Motors Information. DC motors are electric motors that are powered by direct current (DC), such as from a battery or DC power supply. Their commutation can be brushed or brushless. The speed of a brushed DC motor can be controlled by changing the voltage alone. By contrast, an AC motor is powered by alternating current (AC) which is defined ...
Heat Exchangers Selection Guide: Types, Features, Applications
WEBPlate coil or panel coil heat exchangers are a hybrid of tube heat exchangers and plate heat exchangers. They consist of coils of tube containing a heat transfer fluid connected or adjacent to a plate, panel, or wall which holds another fluid. These devices are relatively inexpensive and simple to maintain since the coils can be easily removed.
