What does valve DN50/80 mean?

Answer:

DN50/80 refers to the size of the valve. That is, the circulation diameter is 50mm/80mm.
DN refers to the nominal diameter unit mm, that is, the diameter of the pipe. DN 5080 is the diameter of 50mm 80mm
Hello landlord DN50 valve refers to the valve diameter of 50mm DN80 is 80mm if the valve is opening and closing function, so the valve diameter should be and pipeline with the diameter or smaller number, large waste, butterfly valve to be stuck in the flange, the influence of flow.If the role of the valve is adjusted, and that caliber will be different from the pipe diameter, this is not to reduce the cost of the problem, is a result of calculation, and this calculation results with flow, pressure drop and valve resistance curve.For example, control valve, usually smaller than the pipe diameter, such as pressure reducing valve, will be smaller than the pipe diameter to two, such as 57mm pipe with DN50.
