The working principle of the Butterfly Valve DN500 PN16 is based on the rotation of the butterfly plate to control fluid flow. The butterfly plate, shaped like a disc, rotates around an axis within the valve seat. The degree of rotation determines the valve’s openness. When the butterfly plate rotates to 90 degrees, the valve is fully open, allowing maximum fluid flow. By changing the angle of the butterfly plate, the flow of the medium can be regulated. When the butterfly plate is perpendicular to the pipeline centerline, the valve is in the closed position, preventing fluid passage.
Main Features of the Product
The Butterfly Valve DN500 PN16 typically consists of components like the valve body, valve shaft, valve disc (butterfly plate), sealing device, and operating mechanism. The valve body is made of corrosion-resistant materials to withstand various industrial environments. The valve shaft and valve disc are manipulated by an operating mechanism (such as manual, electric, pneumatic, etc.) to open and close the valve. The design of the sealing device ensures reliable sealing performance under high pressure, preventing fluid leakage.
Application of High-Performance Butterfly Valve
Water supply and drainage systems: The Butterfly Valve DN500 PN16 is widely used in water supply and drainage systems due to its good fluid control performance and low pressure drop characteristics. By adjusting the angle of the butterfly plate, the flow rate and pressure of water can be precisely controlled.
Chemical and pharmaceutical industries: In these industries, the Butterfly Valve DN500 PN16 is favored for its corrosion resistance and sealing performance. It can accommodate various corrosive media and ensure no fluid leakage, thereby ensuring production safety.
Refrigeration and HVAC systems: The Butterfly Valve DN500 PN16 is used in refrigeration and HVAC systems to control the flow of refrigerant. Its compact structure and lightweight make it easy to install and maintain in these systems.
Oil and gas industry: Although butterfly valves have limitations in high-pressure throttling, they still offer reliable performance in low-pressure applications. In the oil and gas industry, the Butterfly Valve DN500 PN16 can be used to control fluid flow, achieve flow control, and pressure regulation.
