Yes, a globe valve can technically be installed upside down, but it is not recommended. This orientation may affect the valve's performance, leading to issues such as improper sealing and flow restriction. To ensure optimal functionality and longevity, it's best to install the valve in the manufacturer's recommended position, typically with the flow direction indicated by the arrow on the valve body.

How is Flow is stopped through a globe valve?

If a globe valve is the same as a ball valve and your question is how does it work to stop the flow of water? There is a ball inside the valve that has a hole through the center in the same direction as the handle. When you turn the handle, the hole closes and seals against the sides of the valve.I Globe Vavle is not the same as a Ball Valve. A Globe Valve has a disc that closes an opening and can be used to throtle the flow. A Ball Vavle is as described above. The Globe Vavles usually have a wheel type valve handle and a ball valve has a lever type handle.
