Description
Butterfly Valve is a widely used flow control valve across various industries due to its compact design, lightweight structure, and ease of use. It operates using a rotating disc mounted on a central axis to regulate, open, or shut off fluid flow in a piping system. It is suitable for water, oil, gas, chemical systems, and the energy sector.
Features of Butterfly Valve
Simple & Efficient Design
Fewer components reduce leakage risks and simplify maintenance
Allows precise flow control using a simple rotary mechanism
Quick Operation
Requires only a 90-degree rotation to open or close
Enhances process efficiency and saves time
Durability & Strength
Made from high-quality materials such as stainless steel, cast iron, and chemical-resistant alloys
Withstands high pressure and diverse temperatures
Versatile Applications
Suitable for drinking water systems, wastewater treatment, chemical processes, oil & gas, power plants, and food industries
Automation-Ready
Compatible with actuators (pneumatic or electric) for automated flow control
Compact & Lightweight
Smaller and lighter than Gate or Globe Valves
Ideal for limited-space installations and easy to mount
Types of Butterfly Valve
Wafer Type
Compact design mounted between flanges with bolts
Common in systems requiring easy maintenance and part replacement
Lug Type
Features side lugs for bolting to the pipeline
Allows removal or isolation without dismantling the entire pipeline
Flanged Type
Equipped with flanges for bolted connections
Suitable for high-strength, high-pressure systems
High-Performance Butterfly Valve (HPBV)
Designed to withstand high pressure and temperature
Used in steam and aggressive chemical systems
