Types of Motor Operated Valves

The Plant and Piping System requires different types of valves for smooth functioning. GPI is a reputed manufacturer of several proprietary products and has been catering to different customer demands for many years now. While many types of valves are required by industries, motor operated valves are considered the backbone of the plant and the piping system. Generally large in size, these valves are also known as on-off valves as they do the work of fully closing or fully opening valves in the pipeline. Motor operated valves are largely used in process pipelines or cooling water lines to either let or stop the fluid flow.


Motor operated valves are sought by the industries where frequent operation is needed. They are also handy when the area is remote or hazardous. Motor operated valves can be essentially divided into three types - Precision Flow Valves, Inching Valves and Open/Close Valves. While all of them have the same basic function of controlling or isolating the flow, there are small differences that set them apart from one another. At GPI, you can find all the types of motor operated valves and choose the one serving your purpose the most.


Motor operated valves often come with a digital control element for the user’s convenience. They can also be beneficial when it is a matter of position control. At GPI, one would get motor operator valves with actuator controls. If precision control is not something that you need to take care of for your product, then motor operated valves can be of best use to you.
