A Globe Valve is a type of Valve used for regulating flow in a pipeline, consisting of a movable disk-type element and a stationary ring seat in a generally spherical body.
Globe Valves are used for applications requiring throttling and frequent operation. For example Globe Valves may be used as sampling Valves, which are normally shut except when liquid samples are being taken. Since the baffle restricts flow, they're not recommended where full, unobstructed flow is required.
