Why use special flanges for butterfly valves?
Butterfly valve to use special flange, butterfly valve itself is because of the structure of the decision, the butterfly valve to clip type connection, this pair of clamps is a special flange.Also known as butterfly valve, control valve has a simple structure, can be used for low pressure pipeline valve switching control is closed parts (disc or disc) is a disk, around the valve axis to achieve the opening and closing a valve, the valve can be used to control the flow of air, water, steam steam, all kinds of corrosive medium, mud, oil, metals and radioactive liquid media and other types of fluid. On the pipeline, mainly from cutting and throttling. Butterfly valve headstock is a disc shaped disc, in the valve body around its own axis of rotation, so as to achieve the purpose of opening or closing or regulation.
Because to use special flange butterfly valve butterfly flange diameter is just the butterfly inside diameter of DN coincides with a slot in the back, and this is the connection of the steel pipe is inserted into the slot, so as to ensure the sealing effect, but with a flange piece of ordinary cannot guarantee the effective sealing effect.Butterfly valve plate installed in the direction of the diameter of the pipe. Butterfly valve structure is simple, small size, light weight. Consists of only a few components. The utility model can be rapidly opened and closed only by rotating 90 DEG, the operation is simple, and the valve has good fluid control characteristics. When the butterfly valve is in the fully open position, the butterfly plate thickness is the only resistance when the medium passes through the valve body, so the pressure drop produced by the valve is very small, so the flow control characteristic is better.If the butterfly valve is used as a flow control, the main thing is to correctly select the size and type of valve. Butterfly valve structure and principle, especially suitable for making large-diameter valves. There are two kinds of butterfly valves commonly used: clip type butterfly valve and flanged butterfly valve. The clip type butterfly valve is a double headed bolt connecting the valve between the two pipe flanges. The flange type butterfly valve is provided with a flange on the valve, and a bolt is used to connect the flanges at the ends of the valve to the pipe flange.
Mainly for clip type butterfly valve sealing ring on the valve body than the ordinary flange chip small diameter. Therefore, the ordinary flange can not guarantee the effective sealing effect. Therefore, you must use a dedicated butterfly flange sheet
