understanding electric valves: key components and applications
Release time:2025-06-24 17:20:16

    Electric valves are essential components in modern industrial systems that control the flow of liquids, gases, or slurries in a variety of applications. With the advent of automation and advanced control systems, electric valves have become an integral part of industries such as water treatment, HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), chemical processing, and many others. These valves are operated by electric actuators, which convert electrical energy into mechanical motion to open or close the valve, thus regulating fluid flow.

    What is an Electric Valve?

Electric valve

    An electric valve is a type of valve that is operated by an electric actuator, unlike traditional manual valves or valves powered by pneumatic or hydraulic systems. The electric actuator is responsible for converting electrical signals into mechanical movement, typically rotating or linear, to control the position of the valve. This movement can either open, close, or partially open the valve, allowing the controlled flow of fluid.
