What is a balanced valve and what are the benefits of this type of design?
A balanced valve design means that the internal forces from pressure are equal. The forces from air pressure that open the valves are equal to the forces from air pressure that close the valves. In engineering school, engineers are taught to draw a “free body diagram” of the part in question and then apply all forces to that “free body.” With this type valve design, the forces from the pressure will be equal in both directions.
