What is Marine Storm Valve?
Storm valve is a kind of equipment to control the flow of liquid inside the ship, it is usually installed at the outlet of liquid pipeline, which can effectively avoid the splash of waves caused by the rocking of the ship, and ensure the safe and stable transportation of liquid inside the ship. The application storm valve in ships are very wide, especially in the fields of liquid process system and industrial production line.
Overview
Working Principle
The principle of storm valve is to control the opening and closing of the valve according to the tilt Angle of the hull through the function of the valve cover, valve plate and valve stem, so as to reduce the tilt of the hull. When the ship is tilted, the valve cover is subjected to external forces that compress the spring on the stem, closing the valve plate and preventing seawater from entering the cabin. When the hull is restored to stability, the spring will automatically open the valve plate, allowing the water inside the ship to flow out and restore the ship's balance.
Main Structure
Storm valve is a kind of safety equipment used in offshore ships, mainly used to control the ship's tilt Angle in bad sea conditions, so as to keep the ship stable. Its structure includes valve body, valve cover, valve plate, valve stem, spring and other components, usually installed in the ship bilge or side wall.
Advantages
1. Storm valve can effectively reduce or resist the impact of waves, improve the stability of the ship in bad sea conditions. This helps to reduce the ship's shaking and turbulence, providing a more stable sailing environment.
2. Storm valve can protect the hull from the damage of large waves and wind waves. By slowing or dissipating the impact force of waves, wave prevalors help reduce fatigue and damage to the hull structure.
3. In harsh sea conditions, the storm valve helps to reduce the ship's shaking and turbulence, improve the working environment and living comfort of the crew.
