The advantages and disadvantages of butterfly valve together with the butterfly valve manufacturer to see.
I. Advantages
1. Structure and cost advantage
The structure is simple, which makes the design and manufacturing process relatively less complicated, thus reducing the difficulty and cost of production. At the same time, the simple structure also makes the size small, light weight, more convenient in the installation and transportation process, can save a lot of manpower and material costs.
2, excellent operation performance
The operation is simple, and the operator can master its operation method without complex training. And the switch is fast, can quickly realize the on-off control of the fluid, improve the work efficiency, especially suitable for some occasions with high reaction speed requirements.
3, fluid control advantages
Excellent performance in large flow fluid control, the valve disc can provide low pressure loss, ensure the smooth flow of fluid in the pipeline, reduce energy consumption, which is important for some industries that need a large number of fluids, such as chemical, oil, natural gas, etc., has important economic significance.
Ii. Disadvantages
1, poor sealing performance
The tightness of the butterfly valve is poor, and it is difficult to achieve a complete sealing effect. This results in some processes with high sealing requirements, the butterfly valve may not meet the requirements, and it is prone to fluid leakage, which will not only cause waste of resources, but also may pose a threat to the environment and production safety.
2. Limited scope of application
Not suitable for high temperature and high pressure applications. In the high temperature environment, the material properties of the butterfly valve may change, resulting in the decline of its structural strength and sealing performance; In high pressure environments, butterfly valves may not be able to withstand huge pressure, and problems such as damage or leakage occur.
3, low flow adjustment accuracy
Because the valve disc rotates between the fully open and fully closed positions, its flow adjustment accuracy is low when it is partially opened. For some processes that require precise control of fluid flow, butterfly valves may not meet the requirements, and it is difficult to achieve accurate flow control, which affects product quality or production efficiency.
