Valve designs

Valve types Whether it is for water, gas or air – valves are used for shutting off or regulating a medium in piping. But which functional principle is the right one? The designations of various valve types are frequently more numerous than the types themselves. That is why we are giving you an overview here of the most common designs in pharmaceutical and biotechnological applications and the foodstuff and beverage industries.
