Valves

Sierra is an experienced and professional manufacturer of valves. We provide probably the most comprehensive range of valves for the water, wastewater and irrigation industry.

The roles of isolation, check, and control valves in water and wastewater systems are crucial in ensuring efficient and effective operations. Isolation valves are used to completely shut off the flow of water or wastewater to a specific section of the system for maintenance, repair, or emergencies. By isolating a section, operators can prevent water from leaking or spilling out, allowing them to work on the problem without disrupting the entire system.

Check valves, on the other hand, are used to prevent backflow in water and wastewater systems. Backflow can occur when there is a change in pressure that causes water to flow backwards in the system. Check valves are installed to prevent this from happening, ensuring that water flows in only one direction and preventing contamination of the water supply. They play a critical role in maintaining the integrity of the system and protecting public health.

Control valves are used to regulate the flow of water or wastewater in a system. They can be used to adjust the pressure, temperature, or flow rate of the water to ensure that it is distributed evenly throughout the system. Control valves are also used to automate certain processes, such as opening and closing valves based on predefined conditions. By using control valves, operators can optimize the performance of the system, improve efficiency, and reduce costs. In conclusion, isolation, check, and control valves are essential components in water and wastewater systems, playing vital roles in ensuring the safety, efficiency, and reliability of these systems. Their proper selection, installation, and maintenance are crucial in maintaining the integrity of the system and protecting public health.
