Pass Valve

Industrial Valves
Popular industrial valve types are
- Ball Valves
- Gate Valves
- Swing Check Valves
- Globe Valves
- Butterfly Valves.
Let's explain briefly about these.
Ball Valves
It's ball placed inside a passageway that gives way for passing of fluid. A most common ball valve is a two way valve. This valve has a single passage way. Three way valves are less used.
Other types of ball valves
- Stainless steel Ball Valves.
- Steel Ball Valves
- High pressure ball valves.
Gate Valves
Gate valves control the flow of fluid and they are used when there's a minimum flow needed. It is also known as a sluice valve because the part that either stops or allows flow through the valve acts somewhat like a gate. Gate valves normally have flanged ends which are drilled according to pipeline compatible flange dimensional standards.
Just like any other valves, Gate valve too have flanged ends in order to connect them to the pipelines. The valve can be made of stainless steel, gun metal , cast iron or cast carbon steel.
Globe Valves
Globe Valves are spherical in shape and so the name ‘Globe Valves'. However, the newer globe valves are not so much spherically shaped. Globe valves offer greater precision than other valves when it comes to regulating flow. Globe valves are used in applications where flow needs to be finely tuned. Globe valves have a plate with a hole in it, and a disk or plug completely or partially fits into the hole, slowing or stopping flow, according to Peco Valve.
Swing Check Valves
Swing check valves are less used when compared to other types of widely used valves namely Ball valves, Gate Valves and Globe Valves. Under reverse flow conditions the swing check is held firmly against the valve seat, preventing system losses.
Swing check valves are good for keeping the pump primed when the power is off. They prevent water from backflowing from the filter into the pond. They are available in many sizes and have different types.
Butterfly Valves
Butterfly valves are one of the widely used valve types. Butterfly valves consist of a circular plate with a rod through it's diameter. The name ‘butterfly valve' is bacause of the appearance of the valve.
A butterfly valve only rotates 90 degrees. This means it can turn from completely blocking the flow of whatever is in its pipe to letting through as much as is possible.There are different kinds of butterfly valves, each adapted for different pressures and different usage.

Should a frost-free spigot allow air to pass when open?
I'm considering buying one of those long (12-inch) frost-free spigots and using it in my home. I looked at several of them at Home Depot and I found that when I opened them, I still could not blow through them. Every other valve I know of (gate, ball, stop and waste, etc) will let you blow through it when it's open. Are frost-free valves somehow unique? I don't want to solder one in and then discover that it won't let water pass through it.
This is the original "asker". After reading q-fire's answer, I should add a couple of details. First, I blew in the direction that the water would flow. Second, the valve is a "quarter-turn" valve, which means it goes from full off to full on in just a quarter of a turn. And yes, it does have some "thingie" on top that might be a check valve. But since I blew in the right direction, I would think any check valve would let air pass. Could it be that water pressure is much higher than the pressure that a person can blow? Also, you wouldn't want ANY resistance to flow since a frost-free valve depends on having any residual water flow out when the valve is turned off. (The isntructions said to make sure its tilted down so water can flow out.) By the way, to q-fire, thanks for the reply.
