Forklift Steering Valve

Forklift Steering Valve - Valves aid to regulate the flow of a fluids like slurries, fluidized gases or regular gases, liquids by opening and closing or even by partially obstructing particular passageways. Typical valves are pipe fittings but are discussed as a separate category. In situations where an open valve is concerned, fluid flows in a direction from higher to lower pressure.

Numerous applications like industrial, residential, transport, commercial and military trades use valves. A few of the main businesses that depend on valves include the oil and gas sector, mining, chemical manufacturing, power generation, water reticulation and sewerage.

Most valves being utilized in day to day activities are plumbing valves, which are used in taps for tap water. Other popular valves include types fitted to dishwashers and washing machines, gas control valves on cookers, valves within car engines and safety devices fitted to hot water systems. In nature, veins in the human body act as valves and regulate the blood circulation. Heart valves also regulate the flow of blood in the chambers of the heart and maintain the proper pumping action.

Valves can be worked in various ways. For example, they could be operated either by a handle, a pedal or a lever. Valves could be driven by changes in flow, temperature or pressure or they could be automatic. These changes can act upon a diaphragm or a piston which in turn activates the valve. Various common examples of this particular type of valve are found on safety valves or boilers fitted to hot water systems.

There are more complicated control systems utilizing valves that need automatic control that is based on external input. Like for instance, controlling flow through a pipe to a changing set point. These circumstances usually need an actuator. An actuator would stroke the valve depending on its set-up and input, that allows the valve to be places precisely while allowing control over a variety of requirements.
