What you'll learn

Explain the purpose, functions, terminology, service categories, and performance requirements of industrial valves.
Identify valve components, materials, ratings, end connections, markings, standards, and datasheet requirements.
Understand valve flow behavior, including pressure drop, capacity, leakage, cavitation, flashing, water hammer, torque, and thrust.
Compare major valve types by construction, working principle, applications, advantages, limitations, and common problems.
Select suitable valves for isolation, throttling, control, check, pressure protection, regulating, sanitary, and utility services.
Match valve selection with fluid type, pressure, temperature, corrosion, erosion, solids, leakage, materials, and maintenance needs.
Understand manual, pneumatic, electric, hydraulic, solenoid, emergency shutdown, positioner, and feedback device applications.
Apply proper valve handling, storage, installation, commissioning, startup checks, safe operation, isolation, and bleeding practices.
Inspect, test, maintain, repair, troubleshoot, and document valves used in industrial systems.
Compare real industrial valve applications by duty, service limits, reliability, cost, maintenance, and selection requirements.

Course Description

“This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.”

Industrial Valves: Selection, Operation & Maintenance is a professional course designed for learners and technical teams who want to build a strong, reliable understanding of valves used in industrial systems. Valves play a critical role in isolation, flow regulation, pressure protection, process control, safety, reliability, maintenance, and overall plant performance. In real operations, correct valve understanding helps reduce failures, prevent unsafe conditions, improve system availability, and support better engineering and maintenance decisions.

In today’s organizations, valves are not just pipeline accessories. They are essential assets that affect production continuity, equipment protection, environmental containment, energy use, operating cost, and risk control. Poor valve selection, incorrect installation, weak maintenance practices, or ineffective troubleshooting can result in leakage, pressure loss, cavitation, water hammer, downtime, product contamination, and costly repairs. This course helps professionals approach valves as practical engineering and operational decisions, not only as mechanical components.

The course builds the capability to understand valve duties, compare valve types, interpret specifications, recognize service limitations, and connect valve choices with real operating conditions such as pressure, temperature, fluid behavior, corrosion, erosion, leakage, solids, safety requirements, and maintenance needs. It also supports more confident decisions in valve operation, inspection, testing, repair, troubleshooting, documentation, and real industrial applications.

For individual professionals, this course strengthens technical judgment, field confidence, and communication with engineering, operations, maintenance, inspection, procurement, and safety teams. For organizations, it supports safer operation, better valve reliability, stronger specification quality, improved maintenance planning, and more consistent troubleshooting decisions. By developing a structured understanding of industrial valves, teams can reduce avoidable failures, improve plant readiness, and make better decisions across projects, operations, and maintenance activities.


Each lecture includes dedicated study material and an infographic summary. Learners should review the study material after watching the lecture to strengthen their understanding, and use the infographic summary for quick revision and easy recall of key concepts whenever needed.


Successful completion of this course earns an Accrevia Certificate of Completion—a verifiable credential with a unique QR code and Certificate ID that employers and organizations can use to confirm authenticity.


Who this course is for:

  • Students, Fresh Graduates & Early-Career Learners: For learners who want a strong practical foundation in industrial valves, including terminology, functions, components, valve types, flow behavior, materials, standards, and real plant applications.
  • Engineering & Technical Professionals: For engineers and technical staff involved in valve selection, specification, datasheets, materials, pressure-temperature ratings, end connections, standards, and service suitability across industrial systems.
  • Plant Operations, Facilities & Utility Teams: For operators, facility teams, and utility personnel who work with valves in water, wastewater, HVAC, steam, power, chemical, oil and gas, food, and pharmaceutical services.
  • Maintenance, Inspection & Reliability Teams: For maintenance technicians, inspectors, supervisors, and reliability teams responsible for valve inspection, testing, preventive maintenance, repair decisions, troubleshooting, and maintenance records.\
  • Control, Automation & Safety Roles: For professionals working with control valves, actuators, solenoid valves, emergency shutdown valves, positioners, feedback devices, pressure protection, and automated valve systems.
  • Project, Procurement & Technical Documentation Roles: For professionals involved in valve comparison, technical specifications, datasheets, standards, testing requirements, certificates, inspection documents, spare parts, and selection decisions.
