Butterfly valve<\/strong>, also known as butterfly valve, is a type of industrial valve used to regulate the flow of fluid in pipelines. The way a butterfly valve works is based on the opening and closing of a rotating butterfly wing to control flow – similar to a ball valve.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

General structure of butterfly valve<\/h2>\n
\"C\u1ea5u
C\u1ea5u t\u1ea1o van b\u01b0\u1edbm tay g\u1ea1t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The structure of the butterfly valve includes the following components:<\/h2>\n

Valve bodies are made from metal castings or according to the specific requirements of the application. With convenient bolt and nut mounting holes, the valve body makes installation easy. Using materials such as steel, cast iron and stainless steel, the valve body helps your system operate stably and safely. Guaranteed performance with quality products from us!<\/p>\n

Valve disc:<\/strong> Has a shape similar to a butterfly wing and is used to regulate flow through a lever or crank mechanism. Valve discs are usually manufactured from cast iron, steel or stainless steel.<\/p>\n

Sealing gasket (seat):<\/strong> Used to create tightness between the valve disc and valve body. Common seat materials include EPDM, PTFE, and Hi EPDM rubber.<\/p>\n

Lever or crank (steering wheel):<\/strong> Plays an important role in adjusting the opening of the valve disc to control flow. They create different opening angles to change the flow.<\/p>\n

Other parts:<\/strong> In addition, butterfly valves also include parts such as shafts, positioning gears and bolts to ensure stable and reliable operation.<\/p>\n

The detailed structure of the butterfly valve may vary based on the specific intended use and technical requirements of the application.<\/p>\n

Operating principle of butterfly valve<\/h2>\n

As you can see in the picture below, when fully closed, the valve disc will lie parallel to the valve body, creating a horizontal barrier that prevents fluid from entering. When thrust is applied through a control device, such as a rocker arm or handwheel (automatic electrical or pneumatic control), the force is transmitted to the valve shaft and disc. This results in rotation of the valve disc, opening the gate and allowing fluid to flow through the valve at a rate depending on the opening angle of the valve disc. The fully open state corresponds to placing the opening angle of the valve disc perpendicular to 90 degrees compared to the valve body.<\/p>\n

Classification of Butterfly Valves<\/span><\/h2>\n

1. Classification by connection type<\/span><\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Butterfly valve with flange connection:<\/strong> On the valve body there are two flanges on both sides. Each flange is connected to the pipe flange via a separate set of bolts and screws.<\/li>\n
  • Lug connection butterfly valve:<\/strong> On the valve body there are lugs to pass through the bolts. A set of long bolts will be installed through the hole in both the lug and the two flanges to clamp the valve tightly to the pipe.<\/li>\n
  • Wafer connection butterfly valve:<\/strong> This type also uses a set of long bolts similar to the Lug connection valve, but the valve body does not position itself but depends on the pressure from the two flanges of the two pipe ends on both sides. The valve body has no flanges or bolt lugs, only pairs of holes, making installation easier.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    These connection types are selected depending on the specific requirements of the application and the desired installation.<\/p>\n

    2. Classification according to valve manufacturing material<\/span><\/h3>\n
      \n
    • Cast iron butterfly valve:<\/strong> This is the most common type of valve and is manufactured entirely from cast iron. Often applied in projects related to water supply and fire protection systems.<\/li>\n
    • Steel butterfly valve:<\/strong> This type is often used in applications with high pressure and temperature, such as hot oil or saturated steam pipeline systems.<\/li>\n
    • Stainless steel butterfly valves 304, 316 (stainless steel):<\/strong> They are often applied in raw wastewater treatment systems and in dilute chemical applications.<\/li>\n
    • Plastic butterfly valve:<\/strong> This type is suitable for pipeline systems used to transport chemicals. The choice between plastics such as PVC, UPVC, PP depends on the specific chemical, concentration and temperature of the application.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
