These valves are generally of large size and are used for different applications such as pump discharge etc. Motor Operated Valves are often called as On-Off valves as the motors serve the purpose of fully opening or fully closing valves in pipelines. For example, cooling water lines, process pipelines where regulation of fluid is not required, motor operated valves can be used to fully allow or fully stop the fluid flow.
