Introduction and Function of Butterfly Valves

2024-06-19

Butterfly Valves are a type of valve widely used in pipeline systems. Its main feature is that its closing part (valve disc or butterfly plate) is disc-shaped, and the opening and closing functions are achieved by rotating around the valve axis. Butterfly valves mainly play the role of cutting off and throttling on pipelines.


Specifically, the butterfly valve opening and closing part is a disc-shaped butterfly plate that rotates around its own axis in the valve body to achieve the purpose of opening, closing or regulating. The design of this valve makes it usually less than 90° from full open to full closed, thus providing fast and effective flow control.


In addition, because Butterfly Valves have a simple structure, small size, light weight, and can be installed in a small space, it has been widely used in various industrial fields such as petroleum, chemical industry, metallurgy, hydropower, etc. Especially in special environments that require high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, etc., the excellent performance of butterfly valves is fully reflected.


In general, Butterfly Valve is a powerful and widely used valve type that provides efficient and reliable flow control solutions for various pipeline systems.
