| Aquatherm offers a variety of valves in our catalog. These valves range in offering between the screw-down stop globe valve, concealed valves, inclined globe valves and ball valves.
Globe valves are named for their spherical body shape with the two halves of the body being separated by a baffle consisting of a movable disc-type element and a stationary seat. Aquatherm’s globe valves do not have a spherical body. Globe valves, due to their internal design, are used mainly for flow control. They operate fairly efficiently in a partially open position to throttle or control the flow rate of liquids. They are used to control flow rates when mixing fluids or in batching operations where fluids may need to be continuously adjusted. Globe valves can be operated manually or by an actuator.
