Butterfly Valves
A butterfly valve is a flow control valve featuring a circular disc that rotates around a central axis. When the disc is parallel to the flow, the valve is fully open, allowing fluid to pass through. Turning the disc perpendicular to the flow closes the valve, blocking the fluid. Butterfly valves are known for their quick operation and are ideal for applications requiring fast shut-off. They are lightweight and compact, making them suitable for industries such as water treatment, HVAC, and chemical processing.
