Pneumatic Actuated Flanged Butterfly Valve

Pneumatic Actuated Flanged Butterfly Valve

A butterfly valve is a quarter-turn rotary valve that is used to control the flow of liquids and gases. It consists of a circular disc that is mounted on a shaft that passes through the center of the valve body. The disc rotates on an axis to open or close the flow through the valve. The valve is called a butterfly valve because the disc is shaped like a butterfly and rotates like the wings of a butterfly. A pneumatic actuated flanged butterfly valve is a type of valve that uses compressed air to open and close the valve. The disc is mounted on a shaft that is connected to a pneumatic actuator, which uses compressed air to rotate the disc. The valve has flanges on either side that are used to connect it to the pipe or ductwork in a fluid handling system. Pneumatic actuated butterfly valves are typically used in industrial applications where remote control or automation of the valve is desired.

Parts

• Valve Body
• Disc
• Shaft
• Pneumatic Actuator
• Flanges
• Gaskets

• Pilot Valve

Advantages

• Pneumatic actuation allows for the valve to be controlled remotely, which is useful in situations where manual operation is difficult or dangerous.
• These valves have a high flow capacity, making them suitable for use in large-scale industrial applications.
• These valves create a low pressure drop across the valve, which can help reduce energy costs in a fluid handling system.
• These valves are relatively easy to maintain and repair, which can help reduce downtime and costs.
• Pneumatic actuated butterfly valves have a compact design, making them a good choice for applications where space is limited.
• These valves are generally less expensive than other types of valves, such as globe valves or ball valves.
• They are made of durable materials and have a simple design, which makes them resistant to wear and tear, and easy to replace.
• Pneumatic actuated butterfly valves can be used in a wide range of applications and industries, such as chemical, oil and gas, mining, water treatment

Industry which uses them

• Oil and Gas industry

Applications

• Pneumatic actuated butterfly valves are commonly used to control the flow of liquids and gases in pipelines, ducts, and tanks.
• Pneumatic actuated butterfly valves can be used as shut-off valves in emergency situations, such as in case of a leak or other problem.
• They can be used to regulate the flow of fluids in a system, such as in HVAC systems or water treatment plants.
• They valves can be used to mix or divert different fluids in a system, such as in chemical processing plants.
• These valves are used as a bypass valve to redirect flow around an obstruction or to take a process offline for maintenance.
• Can be used for throttling, which is the process of adjusting the flow of a fluid to a specific rate.
• They can be used to control the pressure of fluids in a system, such as in power generation facilities.
• Are used to take samples of fluids in a system, such as in chemical processing plants or water treatment facilities.
