Question:

The difference between gate valve, ball valve and butterfly valve

The difference between gate valve, ball valve and butterfly valve

Answer:

Butterfly valve plate and the ball valve is rotated around its own axis for movement; valve plate valve for the lifting movement along the axis; butterfly valve and gate valve can adjust the flow through the opening; the ball is not easy to do this.1. The sealing surface of the ball valve is spherical2. The sealing surface of butterfly valve is circular cylindrical surface3, the sealing surface of the gate valve is flat.

Gate valve: there is a flat plate in the valve body which is perpendicular to the direction of the medium flow, and the plate is lifted and closed.Features: good tightness, fluid resistance small, open and close force is small, widely used, also have to regulate the flow performance, generally applicable to the large diameter of the road.Ball valve: the use of a hole in the middle opening of the ball as the spool, by rotating the ball to control the opening and closing of the hair.Features: the structure is simpler than the gate valve, small size, low fluid resistance, and can replace the role of gate valve.Butterfly valve: closure is a disk-shaped, around a fixed axis rotation of the valve body.The utility model has the advantages of simple structure, small size and light weight, and is suitable for making larger diameter valves. As the sealing structure and materials are still problems, it is only used for low pressure, for the transport of water, air, gas and other media!Own code words, hope to adopt!
