Valve Basics
A valve is a device used to control the flow of fluid through a pipeline. The fluid can be a gas, liquid, or slurry, which is a mixture of liquid and suspended solids. To keep fluids flowing smoothing and processes operating correctly, it is important to understand how valves operate. In this course, we will discuss common valve parts and materials and different types of valves, their purpose, and how they function.
