Key Features
- Rapid Quarter-Turn Operation : One of the major benefits of plug valves is that they can shift from completely open to completely closed (or the reverse) with only a 90-degree (quarter-turn) rotation of the plug. This quick operation makes them ideal for uses involving rapid shut-off or diverting of flow.
- Minimal Flow Restriction : Certain plug valve designs are available with a "full port" option in which the bore diameter of the plug is nominally equal to the inner pipe connecting diameter. This reduces turbulence and pressure loss, making them ideal for use in instances where preserving flow efficiency is paramount.
- Multi-Port Configurations : Plug valves stand out as they can have more than two ports (e.g., 3-way, 4-way). This makes them suitable for diverting, distributing, or mixing flows and allows for simplifying piping systems and cutting the number of valves in some applications.
