Product Description
Changeover valves used with two associated pressure relief devices will provide continuous overpressure protection to a process or protected system. They enable a swift and safe switch between products, safety systems or to start-up tanks when used a diverter valve
Change-over valves are safety valves that switch the medium flow between two different safety valves, thus ensuring higher plant availability by ensuring that one inlet or outlet is always open.
Versatile Flow Management SolutionChangeover valves offer robust control over fluid routing, especially vital where uninterrupted flow is necessary during maintenance or system transition periods. Their compatibility with various media guarantees performance across sectors from chemical processing to oil and water distribution.
Broad Sizing and Material OptionsWith sizes from 1 inch to 24 inches, these valves are engineered to suit both compact and large-scale installations, ensuring that industries with varying pipeline diameters and operational demands find the right fit. Their material construction is tailored for durability with aggressive fluids.
FAQs of Changeover valve:
Q: How does a changeover valve function in a pressure reducing system?
A: A changeover valve is placed downstream of pressure reducing controls to facilitate the seamless shift between two flow lines. This ensures continuous operation, particularly during maintenance or replacement of one line, without interrupting system performance.
Q: What types of media can changeover valves handle?
A: Changeover valves offered in India are compatible with multiple media including water, gas, oil, acid, and base. This versatility makes them suitable for industries ranging from chemical manufacturing to water treatment and oil distribution.
Q: When should I use a changeover valve in my process setup?
A: It is recommended to use a changeover valve when uninterrupted flow is essential, especially in installations where regular maintenance, filter changes, or equipment switchover is required without stopping the entire process.
Q: Where can I purchase changeover valves in India?
A: In India, changeover valves are available from various sources such as dealers, distributors, exporters, manufacturers, suppliers, traders, retailers, and wholesalers, allowing easy procurement for both small-scale and large-scale operations.
Q: What is the process for selecting the right changeover valve size and material?
A: Selection depends on the pipeline diameter (from 1 inch to 24 inches), the nature of the media to be handled, and operating conditions. Consult with manufacturers or suppliers who can recommend optimal material and specifications per industry standards.
Q: How does installing a changeover valve benefit an industrial operation?
A: The main benefit is operational continuity; the valve allows for the diversion or closure of one line while keeping the other active. This minimizes downtime, enhances safety, and simplifies system maintenance.
