Butterfly Check Valve

Description

The butterfly check valve is a type of valve that is commonly used to prevent backflow of fluids in a pipeline. It consists of a disc that rotates around a shaft to regulate the flow of fluids. When the fluid flows in the correct direction, the disc opens to allow the fluid to pass through. However, when the fluid tries to flow back in the opposite direction, the disc is forced shut, preventing the backflow.This type of valve is called a “butterfly” valve because the disc resembles the wings of a butterfly when it is fully open. The valve is often used in applications where a low-profile and lightweight valve is required, such as in the food and beverage industry, water treatment plants, and pharmaceutical manufacturing.The butterfly check valve is easy to install and maintain, and its compact design allows it to be used in tight spaces. It is also relatively inexpensive compared to other types of valves, making it a popular choice for many industries.
