Comparison Between Wafer-style and Flanged Butterfly Valves

Comparison Between Wafer-style and Flanged Butterfly Valves

Butterfly valves are not only widely used in general industry such as petroleum, gas, chemical industry and water treatment, but also used in the cooling water system of a thermal power station. The butterfly valve can be divided into wafer-style one and flanged one. For the flanged butterfly valve, flanges are set at both inlet and outlet ends of the valve body and they are connected...

Causes of Valve Leakage

Causes of Valve Leakage

Causes of internal leakage of valves during construction 1. Improper transportation and hoisting cause the overall damage of the valve, resulting in internal leakage of the valve. 2. Before the valve leaves the factory, drying and preservative treatment are not performed after the water pressure test is finished, leading to corrosion of the sealing surface and internal...

The Selection and Application of Butterfly Valves

The Selection and Application of Butterfly Valves

The butterfly valve is suitable for flow regulation. Because the pressure loss of butterfly valves in the pipeline is relatively large (it is about three times that of gate valves), the influence of the pressure loss on pipe systems should be fully considered when the butterfly valve is to be selected. Also, take into consideration the firmness of the disc bearing the pressure...

What is the Full Bore and the Reduced Bore Ball Valve

What is the Full Bore and the Reduced Bore Ball Valve

The nominal diameter is the general caliber of various pipes and pipe fittings. Pipes and pipe fittings with the same diameter can be connected with each other and have interchangeability. It is not the actual outer diameter or inner diameter of the pipe, though its value is close to or equal to the inner diameter of the pipe. In the process pipeline system, most valves are designed to limit...
