The difference between electric control valves and electric butterfly valves is that both are butterfly valves driven by electricity. The regulating valve must have the ability to accept external signal control. At the same time, a certain relationship must be ensured between the control signal and the flow rate of the medium through which the valve passes. Electric regulating butterfly valve belongs to electric butterfly valve; Electric butterfly valves include electric regulating butterfly valves but do not specifically refer to electric regulating butterfly valves. Electric butterfly valve is a type of electric regulating valve. There are many types of regulating valve bodies, including straight through single seat, straight through double seat, angular, diaphragm, low flow, three-way, eccentric rotation, butterfly, sleeve, spherical, and 10 other commonly used types.
Before selecting a regulating valve, it is necessary to carefully analyze the medium, process conditions, and parameters of the control process, collect sufficient data, understand the system's requirements for regulating valves, and determine the type of valve to be used based on the collected data.
Electric butterfly valve belongs to a variety of electric valves and electric regulating valves. The main connection methods for butterfly valves are flange type and clamp type; The sealing forms of butterfly valves mainly include rubber seals and metal seals. Butterfly valves are controlled by power signals to open and close. This product can be used as a shut-off valve, control valve, and check valve for pipeline systems. Equipped with a manual control device, in case of power failure, it can be temporarily operated manually without affecting usage.
