A globe valve is not typically used as a check valve. While both types of valves can control fluid flow, they serve different purposes:

Globe Valve: This type of valve is primarily used for regulating flow. It allows for fine control over the flow rate and is often used in applications where throttling is needed.

Check Valve: This valve is specifically designed to prevent backflow in a piping system. It allows fluid to flow in only one direction, automatically closing to prevent reverse flow.
