The Difference Between Explosion-Proof Valves And General Valves
- Válvula DELCO
Explosion-proof valves y general valves are two different types of valves used in different industrial environments and applications. They have obvious differences in design, structure and function. This article by DELCO Valve for you to introduce the difference between explosion-proof valves and ordinary valves.
The design purpose
Explosion-proof valves are designed to prevent combustible gases or dusts from accumulating in piping systems, thereby reducing the risk of explosion and fire. They are widely used in hazardous environments and flammable and explosive places. Ordinary valves are designed to be used in normal industrial environments to control fluid flow and pressure.
Explosion-proof characteristics
Explosion-proof valves have special designs and features to prevent the spread of sparks, flames or explosions into the piping system. They are usually made of explosion-proof materials and have explosion-proof devices such as flame arrestors, extinguishers or explosion-proof housings. Ordinary valves do not have these explosion-proof features.
Material selection
Because explosion-proof valves need to operate in hazardous environments, so there are higher requirements in terms of material selection. Explosion-proof valves are usually corrosion-resistant, high-temperature and explosion-resistant special materials to ensure its safety performance in harsh conditions. Ordinary valve material selection is more based on application requirements and economic considerations.
Safety features
Explosion-proof valves in the design and work process focus on safety performance. They are usually equipped with emergency shut-off device, emergency venting device or monitoring system, as well as with other explosion-proof equipment interlocking function. Ordinary valves in the safety features less equipment or features.
Applicable environment
Explosion-proof valves are suitable for flammable and explosive gases, vapors or dust-intensive environments, such as petrochemical, coal mining, dust collection systems. Ordinary valves are suitable for ordinary industrial environments, such as water supply systems, HVAC systems, automated production lines.
Conclusión
Explosion-proof valves and ordinary valves in the design purpose, explosion-proof features, material selection, safety features and applicable environments, there are obvious differences. Explosion-proof valves focus on providing higher safety performance and explosion-proof characteristics in hazardous environments, while ordinary valves are suitable for fluid control and pressure regulation in ordinary industrial environments. According to the specific application scenarios and needs, it is crucial to choose the right type of valve to ensure the safety and normal operation of the system.
