Angle valves

Angle valves play a crucial role in high-performance fluid control systems, particularly when it comes to managing complex fluid dynamics, high-pressure environments, and corrosive media. Designed with utmost precision, our angle valves offer an optimized flow path, improved sealing performance, and superior resistance to wear and corrosion, addressing the most challenging operational demands in industrial applications. 

Valve Type

90-degree angle valve designed for directional flow change and compact installation layouts.

Flow Regulation Method

Modulates flow using linear or equal-percentage plug movement for precise control.

Differential Pressure Range

Operates effectively across 16 to 400 kPa for standard HVAC or industrial applications.

Hydraulic Authority Recommendation

Maintain 0.3 or above for optimal control performance and energy-efficient operation.

Valve Characteristic Curve

Features equal percentage or linear characteristic depending on application and flow needs.

Product Description

One of the most critical concerns for valve buyers is the risk of leakage in high-pressure systems. Leakage can compromise system integrity, safety, and operational efficiency, leading to costly downtime and safety hazards. Our angle valves are engineered to provide robust sealing mechanisms that are specifically designed to perform under demanding conditions. The valve seats are precision-machined to ANSI Class VI shut-off standards, ensuring zero leakage even under full-rated pressure and temperature conditions. 

Test Point Configuration

Includes integrated pressure test points for easy balancing and diagnostic measurements.

Maximum Allowable Flow Velocity

Supports up to 2 m/s for liquids, ensuring low noise and minimized erosion.

Leakage Class (per EN 12266-1)

Class IV or VI options available based on sealing requirements and shut-off performance.

Body Material Options

Available in brass, stainless steel, or bronze for durability and corrosion resistance.

Design Pressure Class

Rated up to PN16 or PN25 depending on valve size and material.

Thermal Expansion Compatibility

Accommodates pipe expansion without compromising sealing or flow control performance.

Installation Sensitivity

Minimal sensitivity to mounting orientation; performance remains stable across positions.

Control Accuracy

High accuracy (±5%) with actuator integration for consistent flow regulation.

Position Repeatability

Excellent repeatability (<1%) ensures reliable performance in automated control systems.

Technical Advantages

In many industrial applications, space constraints present a significant challenge. The need to minimize system footprint while maintaining functionality can complicate piping design and increase installation complexity. Our angle valves are purposefully designed with a 90-degree flow path that reduces the need for additional elbows, couplings, or multiple directional changes. This space-saving design simplifies pipeline layouts and ensures an optimized flow path, reducing potential flow resistance, turbulence, and energy loss. 

Angle valves often operate in systems with high-frequency cycling—such as automated processes, test rigs, and other applications requiring frequent valve operation. This puts considerable strain on valve components, particularly the valve stem and sealing surfaces. Our angle valves are constructed using hardened, wear-resistant materials for both the stem and seat to ensure that the valve can withstand high-cycle operations without significant wear. The stem seals are designed with high-temperature, high-pressure resistant elastomers or metal-sealing options, preventing leakage and maintaining system integrity even after extensive use.

The valves can be equipped with proportional or on/off control actuators to precisely regulate flow, ensuring that the system operates efficiently and in real-time. 

From chemical processing plants to HVAC systems and automated manufacturing lines, our angle valves are engineered to meet the rigorous demands of industries where precise fluid control is essential. By offering high-quality materials, precise manufacturing, and customized actuator options, we address the complex needs of fluid control applications, ensuring that each valve delivers the required performance in terms of reliability, efficiency, and long-term operation.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

How does Frigate ensure precise sealing in angle valves for high-pressure applications?

Frigate’s angle valves feature metal-to-metal seat sealing combined with soft-seating technology for high-pressure systems. The seats are precision-machined and pressure-tested to ensure leak-tight operation, even at maximum rated pressures. We use hardened alloys for both valve stems and seats to reduce wear and maintain performance over time. This ensures long-lasting sealing integrity under extreme conditions. 

What materials does Frigate use in the construction of angle valves for corrosive fluid handling?

Frigate offers angle valves constructed from high-performance materials such as 316 stainless steel, Hastelloy, and Inconel. These materials are selected for their excellent corrosion resistance, even in aggressive environments like acid, chemical, and saline systems. Valve seats are often made from PTFE or ceramic coatings to further enhance resistance to chemical degradation. This ensures optimal performance and durability in corrosive media handling. 

How does Frigate design angle valves to withstand thermal cycling without losing performance?

Frigate’s angle valves are designed with thermal expansion compensation in mind, using low-expansion materials for valve bodies and seats. The sealing components are crafted from heat-resistant elastomers or metal-to-metal sealing materials that perform well under fluctuating temperatures. The valves maintain a tight seal and consistent operation through thermal cycling due to careful design tolerances. This results in reliable performance even in applications with frequent temperature changes. 

Can Frigate's angle valves be integrated into automated control systems for precise flow regulation?

Yes, Frigate’s angle valves can be equipped with pneumatic or electric actuators and integrated with smart control systems for precise, automated flow regulation. The actuators support proportional control, allowing fine adjustments to fluid flow based on real-time sensor feedback. Valves can also be fitted with position sensors for exact valve positioning, which integrates seamlessly into PLC systems for full automation. This ensures consistent and reliable flow control in automated applications. 

How does Frigate address angle valve performance in applications involving high-viscosity fluids?

In high-viscosity fluid applications, Frigate’s angle valves are designed with larger flow paths and specialized actuators to handle thicker fluids without compromising performance. The valve seats are made from abrasion-resistant materials to minimize wear from the flow of viscous fluids. Enhanced stem seals are used to prevent leakage, and the valve is designed to maintain smooth operation even at slower flow rates. This results in minimal pressure drop and long-term durability in challenging fluid systems.
