Electric flanged butterfly valves are essential components in various industries, offering both efficiency and reliability when controlling the flow of liquids and gases in pipelines. These valves, known for their compact design and versatility, are increasingly used in systems requiring automated control, from water treatment plants to chemical processing facilities. In this article, we explore the construction, working principles, advantages, and applications of electric flanged butterfly valves.

    What is an Electric Flanged Butterfly Valve?

    An electric flanged butterfly valve combines the functionality of a traditional butterfly valve with an electric actuator. The valve’s central component, the butterfly disc, rotates around a fixed shaft within the valve body to regulate flow. The actuator, powered by electricity, drives the valve’s opening and closing mechanism, allowing for precise control over the flow rate of various media such as water, steam, or gases. The flanged connection provides a stable and secure means to install the valve in pipelines, ensuring leak-free performance.
