This post is shared from https://www.instructables.com/ If you’re going to build yourself a water-gun or a water pump in the coming hot summer, you’ll need some check valves. Buy one from the store? Or you can just make one by yourself. The most expensive parts of a water pump are usually the check valves. In this project, we’re making some from scratch, for as little as you can imagine. Before we started, please watch the video first. WARNING: The pressure tests and claims made on these check-valves is based solely on my personal experiences with the ones demonstrated in the video. Individual results may vary, and caution and care should be…

Stainless Steel Sanitary Fittings Used in Wine Industry
Wine is very popular all over the world. Stainless steel sanitary fittings play an indispensable role in the production of wine. For instance, stainless steel distillers and coolers are used as basic equipment for liquor production. Currently, many wine producers are upgrading their equipment, so stainless steel sanitary fittings and sanitary valves will play a role throughout the process in the wine industry. Whether it is the fermentation of the pot, the sanitary stainless steel wine distilling hood with a ventilation tube, or the cooler tank inlet, all of which can be used with stainless steel heat pipes and condensers. In order to ensure the stability of the stainless steel sanitary…

Maintenance of Sanitary Pneumatic Ball Valve
Sanitary ball valve is a basic type of sanitary valves. The Pneumatic ball valves are ball valves with pneumatic actuators, whose execution speed is relatively fast (the fastest switch speed is 0.05 seconds/time), so it is also called pneumatic quick cutting ball valve. Pneumatic ball valves are specifically classified as stainless steel pneumatic ball valves, plastic pneumatic ball valves, sanitary pneumatic ball valves, carbon steel pneumatic ball valves, etc. How to maintain the pneumatic ball valve? * Before use, the pneumatic ball valve should be cleaned by water to prevent iron scraps and other debris from entering the body cavity. * When the ball valve is closed, there is still some residual…

Good Properties of Sanitary 3-Way Ball Valve
The main function of the Sanitary 3-way Ball Valve is to cut off and connect the fluid in the pipe. They have the characteristics of small fluid resistance, good sealing, quick switch and high reliability. As for the good properties, STRENGTH and SEAL are the two main performances of sanitary ball valves. Strength Properties The STRENGTH of a sanitary ball valve refers to the amount of pressure it can withstand during the operation. Valves are mechanical products that are subject to internal pressure, so they must have sufficient strength and rigidity to ensure long-term use without cracking or deformation. Sealing Performance Sealability is the most critical technical performance of the valve, and it…

Sanitary Valve: Pneumatic Butterfly Valve
The pneumatic butterfly valve consists of a pneumatic actuator and a butterfly valve. It uses a circular disc that rotates with the valve stem as a shutter to achieve the activation action. These valves are mainly used as shut-off valves, and can also be designed to have adjustment or section valve and adjustment functions. At present, butterfly valves are used more and more on low-pressure large and medium-diameter pipes. Pneumatic butterfly valves are classified into stainless steel pneumatic butterfly valve, hard seal pneumatic butterfly valve, soft seal pneumatic butterfly valve, and carbon steel pneumatic butterfly valve. The main advantages of the valve are simple structure, small size and light weight,…
