Why Globe Valves Are Ideal for Steam Applications

Globe valves for steam applications are essential components that provide precise control over flow and pressure. Their robust design ensures efficiency and reliability in a wide range of industrial systems. At BM Engineering, we supply a comprehensive range of globe valves, including flanged globe valves and screwed globe valves, suitable for demanding steam applications across multiple industries.

How Globe Valves Operate

Globe valves feature a movable disk and a stationary ring seat, which allows for precise throttling of steam flow. This makes them ideal for systems requiring frequent operation and accurate flow control. BM Engineering offers a variety of globe valve models designed to meet the highest standards of performance and durability.

Advantages of Globe Valves in Steam Systems

  • Precise Flow Control: Accurately regulates steam for optimal system performance.
  • Durability: Built to withstand high temperatures and pressures.
  • Frequent Operation: Suitable for systems requiring regular opening and closing.
  • Reliable Sealing: Minimises leakage and maintains system efficiency.

Industry Applications

Globe valves are widely used across industries that rely on steam for heating or processing:

  • Power Generation: Controlling steam to turbines and heating systems.
  • Food & Beverage Processing: Managing steam for pasteurisation and sterilisation.
  • Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Precise flow control in production lines.
  • Industrial Facilities: Maintaining consistent pressure and temperature in chemical or mechanical processes.

BM Engineering provides valves that are reliable and suited to these demanding applications.
