Valvets

Valvets are a type of valve used in plumbing and HVAC systems to control the flow of liquids or gases. They are designed to open and close in response to changes in pressure or temperature, allowing for precise regulation of fluid flow. Valvets are commonly used in applications where a gradual and continuous adjustment of flow is required, such as in irrigation systems, heating systems, and industrial processes.

There are several types of valvets, including pressure-compensated valvets and temperature-compensated valvets. Pressure-compensated valvets adjust the flow based on changes in pressure, ensuring a consistent flow rate regardless of pressure variations. Temperature-compensated valvets, on the other hand, adjust the flow in response to temperature changes, which is useful in applications where the fluid's viscosity changes with temperature.

Valvets are typically made from materials such as brass, stainless steel, or plastic, depending on the specific application and the type of fluid being controlled. They are available in various sizes and configurations to accommodate different flow rates and system requirements. Proper installation and maintenance of valvets are crucial for ensuring their reliable and efficient operation. Regular inspection and cleaning can help prevent issues such as clogging or corrosion, which can affect the valve's performance and lifespan.
