pyörösäätöventtiilejä

Pyörösäätöventtiilejä, known in English as rotary control valves, are a type of industrial valve used for regulating the flow of fluids. Unlike traditional globe valves which rely on a plug moving linearly, rotary control valves use a rotating element to control flow. This rotating element can take various forms, such as a ball segment, a plug, or a butterfly disc. The precise positioning of this rotating element determines the valve's opening, thus controlling the amount of fluid passing through.

The primary advantage of rotary control valves lies in their inherent simplicity and robustness. The rotating motion often results in less wear and tear compared to the sliding parts of linear valves, leading to longer service life and reduced maintenance requirements. They are particularly well-suited for applications involving abrasive or viscous fluids, as the rotating action can help prevent clogging and material buildup. Furthermore, their compact design can be beneficial in space-constrained installations.

Rotary control valves are employed across a wide range of industries, including chemical processing, oil and gas, power generation, and pulp and paper manufacturing. They are used in various control loops to maintain pressure, temperature, level, or flow rates within desired parameters. The specific type of rotary element and the valve's construction are chosen based on the application's specific needs, such as the required flow characteristics, pressure ratings, and the nature of the fluid being handled.
