Self-acting control valves – Guarantor of safety in plant and machinery operation
Industrial valves are vital components of plants and machines in that they perform necessary regulating and control tasks. When plants are planned and designed, their various elements are not considered in complete isolation from one another, but are instead selected to complement each other in their intended purpose. Therefore, the optimal valve selection is particularly important.
Self-acting control valves have special advantages with regards to the smooth interaction of all plant components.
