In the right hand side of the heart at the junction of the right ventricle and the pumonary artery. Its function is to make sure that deoxygenated blood goes to the lungs and does not flow back into the heart. It's also known as a semi-lunar valve.
pulmonary semilunar valve
tricuspid valve
Yes. The pulmonary valve is a semilunar valve between the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk.
There are two semilunar valves: 1. pulmonic valvewhich is located at the opening of the pulmonary artery; and 2. aortic valve which is located at the opening of the aorta.
The pulmonary or pulmonic valve (a semilunar valve) controls blood flow from the right ventricle to the "pulmonary trunk" that branches into the two pulmonary arteries carrying blood to the lungs.

The pulmonary valve
It is the pulmonary valve. Sigmoid is only a synonyme for semilunar (includes pulmonary and aortic valves).
There are not valves in the pulmonary artery or the aorta. However there are valves between these and the heart. Between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery there is a valve referred to as the pulmonary semilunar valve. Between the left ventricle and the aorta there is a valve called the aortic semilunar valve.
