Category: Butterfly Valves

A butterfly valve is a valve which can be used for isolating or regulating flow. The closing mechanism takes the form of a disc. Operation is similar to that of a ball valve, which allows for quick shut-off. Butterfly valves are generally favoured because they are lower in cost than other valve designs as well as being lighter in weight, meaning less support is required.

How do I choose the right butterfly valve for my process?

Selecting the correct butterfly valve depends on several factors:

Media type and compatibility (chemical, slurry, gas, etc.)
Operating pressure and temperature
Flow control requirements (on/off vs modulating)
Pipe connection type (wafer, lug, flanged)
