Control valves05

Control butterfly valve

A control butterfly valve throttles flow by rotating a disc within the flow path. Its disc and shaft distinguish it from ball control valves, but the generic title does not specify eccentricity, seat, characteristic, or permissible travel range. Dynamic torque, velocity, pressure drop, and control range must be evaluated for the selected model.

Application and duty

Flow modulation where a butterfly body is sized for the dynamic conditions

TECHNICAL REFERENCE

Selection summary

Continuous modulation of flow, pressure, temperature or level with the required flow characteristic

Control-valve selection requires capacity sizing plus cavitation, flashing, noise, velocity and rangeability checks; line size alone does not determine valve size.
