VALVE CARRIERS

The valve carrier contains all of the lubrication valves and mixing nozzles. The lubricant and air hoses are conveyed into the valve carrier and connected to the valve bases. Located at the front of the valve carrier are outlet ports, which are fitted with o-rings. Valve carriers are affixed on uniquely designed bases. It is possible to create the bases to enable more than one lubricant to exit the valve carrier as used in many industries like the Oil refining, Petroleum, Natural gas and Refining industries. Water can be sprayed first to ensure optimum cooling before spraying the lubricant for coating.

 

Gas valves are used to cope with and control the course of gaseous substances such as liquefied petroleum and natural gas. They are made of metal or plastic and can vary in valve size, pressure rating and the number of apertures.

 

To guarantee the best possible stream or flow, it is required to make certain that the valve carriers are affixed firmly to the valve actuators. It is also important to ensure that the lubrication valves, which permit the flow of fluids such as petroleum, oil or gas through them are located as near to the spraying heads as possible to enable the lubricant to act quickly when the valve is opened and closed and restricts the amount of lubricant that remains when lubrication of the valve is finished.

 

Thread-in Type Check Valve Carriers can also be used. These provide a suitable and useful way to install Slip-in Type Check Valves threaded ports which are used in hydraulic systems.
