Choosing the Right Valve: A Practical Guide for Process Engineers

Choosing the Right Valve: A Practical Guide for Process Engineers

Key criteria to consider when specifying valves for oil, gas and process applications.

Selecting the right valve starts with understanding the service: fluid, pressure, temperature, cycle frequency and required shut-off class.

Material compatibility, end connections and applicable standards such as API and ASME then narrow the options to a short list that balances performance and lifecycle cost.

Our engineers are available at the Experience Center to review datasheets and recommend suitable configurations.
