A Globe valve is really different from valve=ball and support less pressure delta. It consists in a static cage where flow regulation is done by a movable disk. Such valves can ensure complete isolation of fluid in a pipeline.

We use to find them in domestic appliances or on industrial small or medium sized pipes.

You can complete their description in OSM with actuator=*, turn_to_close=* or handle=*. See examples

Thermostatic globe valve	Europe	pipeline=valve valve=globe handle=wheel turn_to_close=clockwise actuator=thermostatic	A domestic globe valve installed on heating radiators. The valve opens and close depending on the delta between fluid and ambient temperatures according to spring inside
Globe valve	The Netherlands	pipeline=valve valve=globe handle=wheel turn_to_close=clockwise emergency=fire_service_inlet	The valve prevent water to get out of a fire fighters riser pipe in a building. This is a typical globe valve
Solenoid globe valve	France	pipeline=valve valve=globe actuator=solenoid handle=button manufacturer=Bürkert model=5282 material=brass location=indoor remotely_controllable=yes	A comon globe valve which state is modified by a solenoid. A manual button allow local operator to unlock the valve in case of solenoid failure. It is provided by Bürkert. Datasheet
