UAE Valves are acclaimed as the trusted Butterfly Valve supplier in Dubai. Butterfly valves are quarter-turn rotational motion valves used in pipelines to control flow. They are often employed for regulating flow and are installed in a wide range of applications, primarily in water supply, distribution, and collection systems, and plumbing systems.
These valves are also commonly used for flow isolation.
Main Parts of a Butterfly Valve:
- Valve Body: Positioned between the valve ends, which can be flanged, lug, or wafer.
- Disc: Acts as a gate to allow or restrict flow. It is attached to the valve body and drilled to fit the stem or shaft. The disc's design, orientation, and material can be modified to optimize flow, sealing, and operating torque.
- Anti-Leak Seal: A strong rubber or metal seal lines the internal valve body, securing the disc in the closed position for complete shutdown.
- Valve Shaft (Stem): Connects the disc to the actuator mechanism and transmits torque.
- Seals: Used at various points within the valve to provide a tight seal during operation or to separate the process medium from the valve's internal components, enhancing versatility and cost-effectiveness.
How Butterfly Valves Work:
The butterfly valve design is simple, with fluid flow controlled by the rotation of the valve disc.
In the closed position, the disc blocks the valve bore; in the open position, the disc is parallel to the flow direction, allowing flow. Butterfly valves often provide bidirectional flow and cutoff capability, although they are not full-bore and thus not suitable for pigging or swabbing.
The valve body is typically made of ductile iron, with both internal and external surfaces coated with epoxy powder. Operation methods include handwheels, gears, actuators, or a combination, depending on application requirements and technical specifications.
