What Does ESV Stand For?
ESV stands for Emergency Shutoff Valve
The Emergency Shutoff Valve (ESV) is a critical safety device designed to rapidly interrupt the flow of fluids or gases in piping systems during emergency situations. ESVs are essential for preventing hazardous leaks, reducing risk of accidents, and ensuring the safety of personnel and equipment.
