the butterfly valve with bypass valve, the bypass valve should be opened before opening, and the installation should be carried out according to the manufacturer’s installation instructions. The heavy butterfly valve should be set with a firm foundation.

Comparison of ordinary butterfly valve and gate valve:

Which of the ordinary butterfly valve or gate valve with the same nominal pressure and nominal diameter has better tightness and is not easy to leak?

The airtightness of the gate valve is better than that of the butterfly valve, but there are also manufacturers’ butterfly valves that have better airtightness. This type of valve should generally be installed horizontally in the pipeline.

The gate valve is large in size and takes up a lot of space.

The butterfly valve is small in size and takes up little space.

When selecting, the temperature of the medium, the sealing of the valve and the packing must also be considered.

The specification stipulates that butterfly valves with a nominal diameter greater than 50 are used.

The elastic metal sealing butterfly valve is a national key new product. The high-performance manual butterfly valve adopts a double eccentric and a special oblique cone oval sealing structure. It solves the shortcoming of the traditional eccentric butterfly valve that the sealing surface is still in sliding contact friction at the moment of opening and closing 0°~10°, and the sealing surface of the butterfly plate is separated at the moment of opening, and the effect of sealing when the contact is closed is achieved. Good purpose.

Material of manual butterfly valve:
1. Valve body material: gray cast iron, ductile iron, cast steel, aluminum alloy, stainless steel, etc.;

2. Valve plate material: duplex stainless steel, nylon 11 plate, galvanized plate, aluminum bronze;

3. Valve seat material: nitrile rubber, EPDM, fluorine rubber, silicone rubber, PTFE.

themselves are not self-locking. For the positioning of the butterfly plate, a worm gear reducer must be installed on the valve rod. The use of worm gear reducer can not only make the butterfly plate have self-locking ability, make the butterfly plate stop at any position, but also improve the operation performance of the valve. Industrial-specific butterfly valves are characterized by high temperature resistance, high applicable pressure range, large nominal diameter of the valve, the valve body is made of carbon steel, and the sealing ring of the valve plate uses a metal ring instead of a rubber ring. Large high-temperature butterfly valves are manufactured by welding steel plates, and are mainly used for flue ducts and gas pipes for high-temperature media.

Advantages of manual butterfly valve:
The opening and closing is convenient and rapid, labor-saving, low fluid resistance, and can be operated frequently. Simple structure, small size and light weight. Mud can be transported, with the least accumulation of liquid at the pipe mouth. Under low pressure, good sealing can be achieved. Good adjustment performance.

Disadvantages of manual butterfly valves:
1. Use pressure and working temperature range are small.
2. Poor airtightness.

Classification of manufal butterfly valve:
According to the structure, it can be divided into offset plate type, vertical plate type, inclined plate type and lever type. According to the sealing form, it can be divided into two types: soft sealing type and hard sealing type. The soft seal type generally uses a rubber ring seal, and the hard seal type generally uses a metal ring seal. According to the connection type, it can be divided into flange connection and wafer connection; according to the transmission mode, it can be divided into manual, gear transmission, pneumatic, hydraulic and electric.
