Why are conventional disc globe valves preferred for situations with product flow that leaves deposits?

Conventional disc globe valves are preferred in situations where product flow can lead to the accumulation of deposits due to their design characteristics that facilitate effective operation despite these challenges. The key reason for favoring these valves is that the narrow disc is specifically engineered to break through deposits that may accumulate within the pipeline. This feature allows the valve to maintain functionality and flow, ensuring that even if deposits form around it, the valve can still operate effectively by pushing against or displacing these obstructions.

This ability to handle deposits without losing performance is particularly important in processes where the flow of materials can lead to sedimentation or buildup, making it crucial for maintaining system efficiency and preventing blockages that could disrupt operations. As a result, the design of the disc in a globe valve enhances its reliability in maintaining flow control in challenging conditions.
