Valves - SICK

Valves control, regulate, or direct the flow of fluids, such as water, gas, and other substances. They work by opening, closing, or obstructing passageways using flaps or other movable parts. There are three main types of valves: manual, actuated, and automated. Manual valves are operated by hand using handwheels, levers, chains, or gear wheels. Actuated valves are controlled remotely and are often used in large-scale or high-precision operations. Automatic valves are triggered automatically when a certain flow is reached. There are many types of valves available, including ball valves, butterfly valves, check valves, gate valves, knife gate valves, globe valves, needle valves, pinch valves, and plug and pressure relief valves. Centro offers a wide range of valves and can provide expert guidance to help you make the right choice for your needs.
