Understand the basic knowledge of the use of butterfly valves

Oct 12, 2021

Butterfly valves are still very cost-effective in many applications. The cost is lower than other valves, the design is common, and the weight is light, which means less support is required. The disc is located in the center of the pipeline, and the supporting point of the disc is the actuating rod connected to the outside of the valve. Before, some netizens wanted the editor to publish a series of content to introduce the use of butterfly valves. Today, the editor invited the butterfly valve manufacturers to bring you some popular science.

The butterfly valve rotating actuator makes the discs move in parallel and vertically. Unlike the ball valve, the disc is always active, no matter which direction the valve position is, the butterfly valve always causes a pressure drop in the event. Butterfly valves come from a series of valves called quarter-turn valves. In operation, the valve can be fully opened and closed when it rotates a quarter turn.

"Butterfly disc" is a metal disc installed on the rod. When the valve is closed, the disc is rotated to completely obstruct the passage. After the introduction of the butterfly valve manufacturer, we can understand that when the valve is completely opened, the circle rotates a quarter turn , So that the fluid can pass through without restriction. The valve can also be gradually opened to produce throttling.
