Valves & Actuators
Valves
Valves play a critical role in optimizing the performance of pumping systems. These devices regulate, direct, or control the flow of fluids within pipelines, ensuring that the pump operates effectively and efficiently. Whether you’re working with water, chemicals, or other fluids, the integration of valves into pump systems is crucial for maintaining the right pressure, flow rates, and system protection.
Selecting the right type, size, and material of valve for your pump system is essential to ensure long-term reliability and operational efficiency. At Polypump we understand valves need to be designed specifically for the intended fluid, operating conditions, and flow requirements will significantly reduce maintenance needs and optimize energy consumption, ultimately leading to cost savings and extended pump life.
Types of Valves Used with Pumps:
| Air Release Valves | Ball Type Valves | Butterfly Valves | Diaphragm Valves |
| Double regulating Valves | Gate Valves | Globe Valves | Knife Gate Valves |
| Needle Valves | Non Return Valves (NRV) | Parallel Slide Valves | Sodium Hydroxide |
| Pinch Valves | Plug Valves | Pressure Reducing Valves | Pressure Relief Valves |
| Solenoid Valves | WRAS Approved Valves | Sluice Valves | |
Actuators
Actuators are found in a wide range of industries, from automotive and aerospace to manufacturing and energy production. Common applications include controlling valves, driving machinery, robotic arms, and operating automated systems. By enabling precise control over mechanical movements, actuators play an essential role in increasing efficiency, reducing manual labour, and enhancing automation in modern systems.
