Based on field experience, this article outlines the common causes of valve vibration and noise and provides practical guidance for troubleshooting. 1. Basic Manifestations of Valve Vibration and Noise Valve vibration usually appears as noticeable oscillations of the valve body, stem, or connected piping. Noise may present as humming, whistling, or banging sounds. These phenomena often occur simultaneously and are primarily related to the following factors: ● Abnormal flow velocity or pressure differential ● Unstable internal forces within the valve ● Mismatch between actual operating conditions and valve design 2. Common Causes Analysis 1. Excessive Flow Velocity or Pressure Differential When the fluid passes through the throttling section of a valve at high speed, strong turbulence and pressure fluctuations are likely to occur, causing periodic impact on internal components. This issue is particularly pronounced when using standard globe valve s or ball valves under regulating conditions. Typical manifestations include: ● Noise increases as the valve opening decreases ● Vibration intensifies under high-pressure-drop conditions 2. Improper Valve Selection Incorrect valve selection is a common root cause of vibration, such as: ● Using on/off valves for prolonged throttling ● Oversized valve operating at small openings for extended periods ● Insufficient pressure rating or structural rigidity of the valve These conditions can cause unstable movement of the valve plug or ball, resulting in vibration and noise. 3. Loose or Worn Internal Components After long-term operation, the following issues are commonly observed: ● Wear of valve plugs or discs ● Increased clearance between the stem and guiding parts ● Loosened fasteners Non-design clearances amplify fluid impact, leading to persistent noise. If vibration is accompanied by metallic knocking sounds, the condition of internal components should be checked as a priority. 4. Cavitation or Flashing In liquid service, cavitation or flashing occurs when local pressure drops below the saturation vapor pressure. Bubble collapse in high-pressure regions impacts internal components, often accompanied by noise and vibration. Typical signs include: ● Sand- or gravel-like scraping sounds ● Rapid wear of internal components ● Significant pressure fluctuations 5. Insufficient Piping Support or System Resonance Some vibrations are not directly caused by the valve. When upstream or downstream piping lacks adequate support, or when the piping structure resonates near the fluid pulsation frequency, system resonance may occur, amplifying existing vibrations. 3. On-Site Troubleshooting Approach It is recommended to follow the sequence below when troubleshooting: ● Verify whether the pressure, flow rate, and fluid are within the design limits ● Che...
