About Mixing Valves
Mixing valves are used to mix two or more liquids together, either for a specific temperature or to blend different ingredients. They can also be used to reduce the pressure of a liquid, or to adjust the flow rate of one liquid into another.
Types of Mixing Valves
Mixing valves come in a variety of shapes and sizes, depending on their purpose. Some mixing valves are designed for low-pressure applications while others are built for high-pressure applications. There are also mixing valves that are designed specifically for hot water and cold water applications.
How Mixing Valves Are Made
Mixing valves typically consist of an internal body made from brass or stainless steel, with a handle and valve stem attached. The internal components may also include seals, O-rings, gaskets, and other parts depending on the application they’re being used for. In some cases, mixing valves may also have additional features such as strainers or check valves.
Industries That Use Mixing Valves
Mixing valves are commonly used in industries such as plumbing, HVAC (heating ventilation and air conditioning), food processing, brewing/distilling operations, chemical processing plants, medical facilities and pharmaceutical production lines. Professionals in these industries use mixing valves to control temperatures during processes such as cooling/heating liquids; blending different ingredients; adjusting flow rates; reducing pressure; and controlling steam levels.
