Lubricated plug valves are designed with a mechanism that uses a lubricant to create a sealing film between the plug and the valve body, ensuring smooth operation and effective sealing. This feature enhances the valve's longevity and reduces wear, making it ideal for applications involving abrasive or corrosive media. Lubricated plug valves are commonly used in industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, and water treatment, where reliable performance in demanding environments is essential.
Features
- Enhanced Sealing: The lubrication creates a tight seal, preventing leaks and improving valve performance even in high-pressure or corrosive environments.
- Reduced Wear: The lubricant reduces friction between the plug and the body, minimizing wear and extending the valve’s operational lifespan.
- Low Operating Torque: The use of lubrication allows for smoother operation with less force, making the valve easier to operate.
- Suitable for Abrasive Media: Well-suited for handling fluids with solid particles or corrosive substances, ensuring long-term reliability in tough conditions.
