Control valves come in various types, ranging from simple to complex, with some advanced enough to respond to pressure and temperature fluctuations instantly. Control valves are used in water systems, regardless of their form, to regulate the flow or pressure of water and typically respond to signals provided by flow meters or pressure gauges. Control valves can perform various functions within a system, depending on the type of valve used. The ability of a control valve to influence the amount of energy exchange at any given moment in the system by affecting the flow rate makes this function possible.

Systematic management of water pressure and flow can be achieved through the use of a water control valve. Water control valves allow system operators to easily reduce the pressure in a pipe and replace fittings. They are also used in many households to reduce water consumption without affecting the overall system’s functionality. Control valves often feature excellent reliability, a long service life, and a design resistant to clogging, among many other benefits.
