Valve type by equipment and system
This overview shows what types of valves work with generation, distribution and consumption equipment.
Determine
valve type
Determine
medium being
controlled
Calculate/find the Cv or
flow coefficient. In the
case of a PICV, determine
the flow that is needed
through the valve.
Determine close-off
psi to select the
actuator
