Unox 2-Way Motorized Proportional Hot Oil Valve

What is a Motorized Proportional Hot Oil Valve?

A hot oil valve is a type of valve designed to control the flow of hot oil or other high-temperature liquids. These valves are generally used in industrial or commercial environments, such as process plants or power stations, where high temperatures and pressures are involved. Hot oil valves can be applied in heating, cooling, lubrication, and temperature control applications. They are typically made from materials that withstand high temperatures and the corrosive effects of hot oils.

What is a Control Valve?

A control valve is a valve that regulates fluid flow by changing the size of the flow passage in response to a signal from a controller. Control valves enable pressure, temperature, flow, and level control in all fluid-containing processes. They allow fluids such as cold water, hot water, steam, hot water, steam, and gases to be transported and controlled without loss.

Working Principle of a Proportional Hot Oil Valve

The proportional control principle refers to a system where the control signal is directly proportional to the error between the desired setpoint and the actual process value. In other words, the magnitude and direction of the control signal are adjusted according to the error.

This type of control is used in applications where a process variable must be maintained at a specific setpoint or within a certain range. The control signal is generated by a controller that compares the setpoint with the process value and calculates the error. The controller then applies a proportional control signal to the process. Typically, this signal is applied through a control element such as a valve, which adjusts the flow of fluid or the position of a mechanism to achieve the desired process condition.
