Needle Valve Supplier

Needle valves are used for regulating the flow of high-pressure fluids and gases within a pipeline. They are so aptly named because their plunger design is similar to that of a sewing needle, and it is this innovative design that allows them to control the flow of fluids and gases with extreme precision. Additionally, they protect delicate gauges from the damage that can be caused by sudden pressure changes.

They can be made from various materials, and the one you choose to use will depend greatly on the specific needs of your application. While they can be made from various materials, they can also be set up to operate manually or automatically. As the premier needle valve manufacturer, CPV Manufacturing offers a wide range of valve products to meet your needs.

Hydraulic needle valves are used to control flow in both directions in a pipeline. Needle valves are comparable to shut-off valves; however, a main distinction between the two types of valves is in the design. Needle valves feature a long plunger that is controlled by a handwheel. The needle valve’s plunger fits into a seat, and this is what gives it the ability to meticulously control the flow of fluids or gases.

Needle valves can be made from a variety of materials. Stainless steel needle valves are frequently used because they are durable, long-lasting, and require little maintenance. They can also withstand extreme temperatures. Brass needle valves are commonly used for instances such as drinking water or high-temperature applications. This type of needle valve is also able to resist corrosion and is a strong material, also making it ideal for chemical processing applications.

CPV Manufacturing is also known for gas needle valve manufacturing and can provide gas needle valves that allow you to closely control gas processes, such as gas mixing applications.

Safety Valves for Critical Applications

Safety valves were first invented during the industrial era and are designed to be a fail-safe, automatically releasing substances from a system when preset limits are exceeded. By design, regular valves endure immense amounts of erosion from the materials flowing through components. Over time, these valves can be affected by the constant use. There are several indicators when valves begin to fail, including noises, abnormal vibrations, and erosion of component parts. Failing valves can be expensive to repair or replace, can release toxic emissions, and in certain instances can be safety hazards. Safety valves were created to be a safeguard against these possible outcomes. There are several kinds of safety valves.

Pressure relief valves are what most people think of when they think about safety valves. This type of safety valve opens when a certain level of pressure is reached, and its purpose is to release that pressure. This prevents the excess pressure from damaging the system or other areas. You will find pressure relief valves are useful in many systems but are typically used in boilers and pressure vessels.
Gas and vapor valves are designed to work with specific gas and/or vapor systems. Gasses and vapors can be volatile and require careful systems. Gas and vapor safety relief valves ensure systems are constantly operating at the optimal pressure.
Vacuum relief valves are designed to protect a system, tank, or other equipment from breaking and/or imploding. Vacuum valves are usually attached on the top of a tank.

We are proud to offer you the best selection of superior safety valves. Our exacting standards are unmatched, and this is one reason why CPV Manufacturing is the leader in producing the highest-quality safety valves in the industry. We offer both high- and low-pressure safety relief valves. We are recognized for our products, and a few of them are:

Water Shutoff Valves

Even a small water leak can cause extreme damage to a property. Residential, commercial, or industrial property owners should be aware of where their water shutoff valve is located and how they can access it. These valves allow you to quickly turn off the water in your plumbing, preventing a small problem from becoming a catastrophe.

CPV Manufacturing offers the highest quality valves for this purpose, but we also want to educate our customers on their use and how they can protect their property from water damage.

How to Find Your Water Shutoff Valve

If you are not sure where your shutoff valve is located, it is easy to find. The most likely location is against the inside of the perimeter wall that faces the street. Water lines always run into a building in a straight line from the street, so you will probably find the shutoff valve somewhere against the perimeter wall.

The valve will probably not be above ground level, so you should check the bottom of the first floor or basement ceiling. If you cannot locate the valve inside the property, there should be one you can access from the street. There is probably a metal or plastic utility box somewhere on the boundary of your property line.

You can remove the lid to find the water meter and shutoff valves. The valve closest to the street is the utility company’s shutoff valve. Those are designed so that only the utility company can use them, so you won’t be able to turn it. The one closest to your property should have a knob or nut which can be turned. You can use this valve to stop the flow of water to your property if you have a burst pipe or other emergency.

Valves for Extreme Temperatures

Sanitary fittings are important for many industries. In the pharmaceutical and medical industries, however, they are highly critical. Sanitary fittings protect the safety of everyone involved, from the worker to the patient. At CPV Manufacturing, we have years of experience working with the pharmaceutical and medical industry, so we are experts when it comes to their specific needs. Our stainless steel fittings are manufactured in the United States to the highest standard of quality.

As modern medical technology progresses, companies need to provide breakthrough products that combat new diseases. The manufacturing process for this new medical technology requires reliable, safe, and sanitary industrial processes. Any application that requires clean and sterile processing needs a sanitary valve. The fittings need to be easily cleaned frequently, free of crevices, and polished on all contact surfaces. The highest quality stainless steels must be used to minimize rust and oxidation. Pharmaceutical processing can be especially harsh, so the material should be designed to resist corrosion. The whole system has to be free of any pockets where bacteria could be trapped. Ultimately, the fittings must be durable, resistant to high temperatures, and easy to sanitize. Failure to do so could result in a faulty product, which is very serious in the pharmaceutical and medical industries.

At CPV Manufacturing, we take these matters very seriously. Proper equipment for pharmaceutical labs or medical sites can mean the difference between life and death. Sanitary pipe fittings present a range of new challenges, but our experience and knowledge mean we can help you design a system which will be robust, sanitary, and efficient.

What to Know About O-Ring Face Seal Fittings

O-ring face seal fittings are a popular choice for reliable hydraulic and tube connections. These fittings provide a superior, leak-free seal compared to other options. Designed specifically as elastomeric seals to overcome leakage in assembly procedures, they can also be adapted for a range of tubing grades. O-rings are easy to assemble and disassemble in the field, making replacement and repair easier.

The benefits of O-rings are clear, but there are a few things to understand about how they will affect your hydraulic system.

O-rings prevent hydraulic connection failures in harsh environments.

O-rings are designed to work in extreme heat and cold, corrosive environments, and high-pressure and high-vibration settings. These conditions are a major cause of component failure, so O-rings can reduce the need for maintenance.

Hydraulic connections are rarely the cause of leaks.

Most leaks don’t start because a piece of equipment failed. Usually, improper installation or poor system design are to blame. To be effective, an O-ring must be incorporated into a well designed and water tight system. Once a leak has started, the system usually requires an extensive amount of maintenance.

It all starts with system design.

The design, installation, and selection of components for a hydraulic system are the most important steps for leak prevention. The fitting’s application and system conditions need to be considered carefully when choosing the right product. Once a leak has started, the system usually requires an extensive amount of maintenance. This can be prevented with good planning and experienced advice. Working with an experienced supplier of high quality fittings, like CPV Manufacturing, will save you time and money in the long run.

Sanitary Fittings for Pharmaceutical and Medical Industry

Instrument Fittings: Tailpieces, Union Nuts & Adapters

Any industrial pipe system is only as effective as its fittings. Fittings are what allow different systems to work together. When you are designing an industrial piping system, selecting the proper instrument fittings will prevent leaks and malfunctions. This not only protects the productivity of your business, it keeps your employees safe from dangerous chemicals. At CPV Manufacturing, we manufacture our instrument fittings to the highest standards of quality. While we specialize in all manner of industrial pipe fittings, there are three designs we would like to highlight.

Tailpieces

Tailpieces are designed to connect the ends of separate industrial pipe systems. These fittings allow for secure wet connections, so liquids can be safely transported with minimal leakage. If you need to connect two industrial scale wet pipe systems, a properly designed tailpiece is a necessity.

Union Nuts

Union nuts are an essential component of any hydraulic or pneumatic industrial pipe system. They are advantageous for systems requiring customization, as they can be unscrewed and reattached whenever you see fit. A strong union nut should be resistant to vibration and pulsation, so they can provide long-term use without developing leaks. CPV Manufacturing’s union nuts are resistant to rust and chemicals, making them ideal for gas or water piping.

Adapters

Adapters are a type of adjustable pipe fitting designed to extend or terminate a pipe run. They are similar to pipe couplings, with the added advantage of being able to connect dissimilar pipes. Adapters come in a variety of shapes and sizes and have numerous applications.
