What is the pressure of butterfly valve

First, the pressure range of butterfly valve

A butterfly valve is a valve that uses a disc as its body, and its ability to withstand pressure may vary between different types and specifications of butterfly valves. In general, the pressure range of butterfly valves is between 0.6 MPa (MPa) and 1.6 MPa, and for some special specifications and models of butterfly valves, the pressure may be as high as 10 MPa.

Second, the factors that affect the pressure of the butterfly valve

1. Material

The material of butterfly valve is one of the main factors affecting its ability to withstand pressure. Some high-quality materials, such as steel, cast iron, stainless steel, etc., can improve the pressure resistance of the butterfly valve, so that it can withstand greater pressure.

2. Valve structure

The structure of the butterfly valve also affects its ability to withstand pressure. Some butterfly valves use double eccentric or triple eccentric structure, so that the valve can better withstand pressure and withstand higher pressure.

3. Use environment

The use of the butterfly valve environment is also one of the factors that affect its pressure. In the environment of high temperature and high pressure, the bearing capacity of the butterfly valve will be greatly affected, and it is necessary to choose a butterfly valve that can withstand the corresponding environment.

4. Types of stress

The type of pressure the butterfly valve is subjected to also affects its ability to withstand pressure. In general, butterfly valves are suitable for the control of medium and low pressure media, while for high pressure media, other types of valves may need to be selected to ensure the stability and safety of the system.

In general, butterfly valves are a common and widely used valve whose ability to withstand pressure affects its application in industrial systems. When selecting the butterfly valve, it is necessary to select the appropriate type and specification according to the actual demand, and pay attention to the range of pressure it can withstand.
