IFAN Butterfly Valve

What is butterfly Valve?

A butterfly valve is a type of flow control device that uses a flat circular disc, or “butterfly”, which is mounted on a rod in the center. When the valve is rotated, the disc either fully opens or closes to regulate the flow of liquid or gas through the pipe. Butterfly valves are often used in industrial applications because they are lightweight, compact, and easy to operate.

Features of Butterfly Valve?

1.Quick and easy to operate: Butterfly valves can be easily and quickly opened or closed with just a quarter-turn of a lever or handwheel.

2.Lightweight and compact: Due to their simple design and use of fewer parts, butterfly valves are often lightweight and compact, making them easy to install and maintain.

3.Low pressure drop: Because the valve disc is flat, it creates minimal resistance to flow, resulting in low pressure drop across the valve.

4.Wide temperature range: Butterfly valves can operate in a wide range of temperatures, depending on the sealing material used.

5.Cost-effective: Compared to other types of valves, butterfly valves are often less expensive, making them a cost-effective solution for many industries.

Wide Applications of Butterfly Valve

1.Water treatment: Butterfly valves are commonly used in water treatment plants for regulating the flow of water and other liquids.

2.Chemical processing: Butterfly valves are used in chemical processing industries for controlling the flow of chemicals and other fluids.

3.Food and beverage: Butterfly valves are often used in food and beverage industries for regulating the flow of liquids and gases during the production process.

4.Pharmaceutical: In pharmaceutical industries, butterfly valves are used for controlling the flow of liquid and gas during the manufacturing process.

5.Agriculture: Butterfly valves are used in agricultural applications for irrigation systems, sewage and manure pumps, etc.
