Why is it called “butterfly valve” | High Performance Butterfly Valve Factory

 Among all types of valves, there is a particular one with the most beautiful name—the butterfly valve. How did the name come from? In answering this question, we could use analogy. For example, the ball valve looks like a ball, so can we guess that the butterfly valve looks like a butterfly? Well, it seems a little funny, but I have to say: “Bingo, right answer!”


The butterfly valve is a regulating valve with simple structure, and it can be used for switching control of a low pressure pipeline medium. The opening and closing member (valve or disc) of the butterfly valve is a disc that rotates around the valve shaft to open and close. In the cylindrical passage of the butterfly valve body, the disc rotates about the axis to achieve flow control. The valve is fully open when the disc reaches 90°, and changing the angle of the disc can adjust the flow of the medium.

Double Flanged High Performance Double Offset Butterfly Valve

When the butterfly valve is fully open, it has a small flow resistance; when it is between about 15° and 70°, it can perform better flow control. Therefore, the butterfly valve is widely used in the field of large diameter adjustment. Most butterfly valves are available for media with suspended solid particles. Depending on the strength of the seal, it can also be used in powdered and granular media.


FEID AVALVE is the top ranking China double offset butterfly valve manufacture. The annual output of high performance butterfly valve is more than 100,000,000 set.


The API 607 fire safe high performance butterfly valve is also in FEIDA VALVE product range. Our fire safe butterfly valve is certificated by American Petroleum Institute (API) according to API 607 standards.


FEIDA also build up a dustless workshop to produce ultra-clean valve for some critical working condition such as nuclear industry, semiconductor industry etc.


In the dustless workshop, FEIDA also produce the food-grade valves. FEIDA food-grade valve is certificated by Food and Drug Administration United States (FDA).

The bonds between PSA(Pressure Swing Adsorption) and High Performance Butterfly Valve

图片
  High performance butterfly valves ： Generally refers to  double eccentric butterfly valve  and  triple eccentric butterfly valve ,due to their excellent working performance and high sealing ability (compared with concentric butterfly valve) are widely used in petrochemical,power plants,metallurgy,civil heating fields.Eccentric butterfly valves have the good working performacne to meeting sever and strict requirements in many different industries.Today, we are going to introduce the application of eccentric butterfly valve in air separation for making oxygen,hydrogen,CO etc. At present,the mature air separation system is PSA(Pressure Swing Adsorption),it need certain number of programmed valves (valve parts usually double or triple eccentric butterfly valve) in its pipeline system to control and adjust the medium. FEIDA  double (and tripple) eccentric butterfly valve are widely used in this kind of PSA system due to the valves' excellent features: 1-Long service life,on-off 1 mill

Hardening method of metal hard sealed ball valve balls and valve seats

  At present, the commonly used hardening processes for the surface of  metal hard sealed ball valves  mainly include the following: (1) Surface welding (or spray welding) of hard alloy on the sphere can achieve a hardness of over 40HRC. The process of surface welding of hard alloy on the sphere is complex, with low production efficiency, and large area welding can easily cause deformation of the parts. Currently, there is relatively little use of surface hardening technology on the sphere. (2) The surface of the sphere is plated with hard chromium, with a hardness of 60-65HRC and a thickness of 0.07-0.10ram. The chromium plating layer has high hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and can maintain surface brightness for a long time. The process is relatively simple and the cost is relatively low. However, the hardness of the hard chromium coating will rapidly decrease as the temperature increases due to the release of internal stress, and its working temperature cannot exce

Introduction to the Function, Principle, and Characteristics of Globe Valves

  Globe valves   are used to cut off the flow of media, and are suitable for situations that require frequent opening. The sealing parts of a globe valve are the valve disc and valve seat. In order to ensure a tight closing of the globe valve, the mating surface of the valve disc and valve seat should be ground or a gasket should be used. The sealing surface can also be embedded with corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant materials such as bronze and stainless steel.The valve disc and valve stem of the globe valve are connected in a movable manner to ensure a tight fit between the valve disc and valve stem. The lifting and lowering of the valve disc of a globe valve is generally controlled by the valve stem. The upper part of the valve stem is a handwheel, and the middle part is a threaded and packing sealing section. The function of the packing is to prevent the internal medium of the valve body from leaking along the valve stem. The function of a shut-off valve 1、 The main function o
