API globe valve is a valve used for precise control of fluid flow in pipelines. It complies with the standards set by the American Petroleum Institute (API), ensuring high performance and reliability. The valve consists of a spherical valve body and an internal baffle, which guides the fluid through a fixed path, while a movable valve disc or plug adjusts the flow rate by changing the flow area. API globe valves come in various sizes, typically ranging from 1/2 inch to 24 inches, and can accommodate various pipeline sizes and flow requirements. These valves are designed to handle different pressure ratings, including ANSI 150, 300, 600, and higher, and are suitable for various industrial applications.
