Gases
constantly seek ways to escape from or enter into a gas supply system. Cylinder valves are devices that
control the flow of the gases into or out of the cylinder. Pertaining to the
escaping nature of gases, cylinder valves are gaining importance like never
before.
What
are the types available?
Packed Valves – These valves are mostly found on acetylene
cylinders (B & MC) and corrosive products such as ammonia or chlorine. They
typically have a specially designed wrench which has to be removed during
shipping & storage.
Pressure-seal Valves – This is a common valve found on most of the
cylinders and can be operated using a handwheel at very high pressure levels.
Diaphragm Valves – You can find these valves on cylinders
which demand high levels of protection against leakage such as cylinders containing gas mixtures, high purity
gases and rare gases such as krypton and xenon.
Post-type Medical Valves – These pin-indexed valves are used in some
medical gas products to ensure supply of the right gas to a particular
apparatus.
For
your convenience and safety, JTC Valves maintains a well-managed inventory of
cylinder valves manufactured in the USA by Sherwood and Rego, leading brands in
valve manufacturing. All the valves you find here are certified by ASME &
ISO 9001 certified.
