This article compares and analyzes the core differences between cast steel butterfly valves and cast iron butterfly valves. Cast steel butterfly valves have significant advantages in corrosion resistance, high temperature and high pressure resistance, service life and maintenance cost by virtue of the high-strength carbon steel material, which is especially suitable for harsh working conditions. The cast iron butterfly valve, although lower cost, but poor strength and corrosion resistance, more suitable for normal temperature and pressure water system. Engineering selection should be based on specific working conditions, weighing performance and cost to ensure safe and stable operation of the system.

This article compares the performance differences and application scenarios of two key sealing materials for butterfly valves, PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) and EPDM (ethylene propylene diene rubber). PTFE is known for its excellent chemical stability, corrosion resistance (acid and alkali/solvent resistance) and low coefficient of friction, and is widely used in the chemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical and other industries, but its mechanical strength is weak and caution is required at high temperatures. epdm, on the other hand, possesses excellent weatherability ( Aging, ozone, high temperature, water vapor) and insulation, especially suitable for outdoor piping, waterproofing and electrical applications, but its chemical stability is relatively weak compared to PTFE. When choosing, it is necessary to weigh the characteristics of the two according to the specific working conditions (fluid characteristics, environmental conditions) to optimize the performance and life of the butterfly valve.

This paper systematically analyzes the core differences between butt-clamp butterfly valve and flange butterfly valve. Clamped butterfly valves have a simple structure and are installed by clamping between pipe flanges, which makes them easy to disassemble and install, and are suitable for occasions where space is limited or frequent maintenance is required (e.g., ventilation and water treatment systems); flanged butterfly valves use prefabricated flanges for butt joints, which provide a solid connection and better sealing performance, especially high pressure resistance, and are suitable for petrochemical, electric power and other highly demanding fields. Both of them have their own emphasis on sealing, maintenance cost and application scenarios, providing key reference for industrial fluid control selection.

This article analyzes the core difference between flange gate valve and flange ball valve: structurally, the gate valve adopts the design of up and down movement of the gate plate (composed of the valve body, bonnet, etc.), while the ball valve operates by rotating the ball by 90 degrees (including the valve body, the ball, etc.); on the working principle, the gate valve relies on the gate plate to fit the seat to seal, while the ball valve achieves the flow through the rotation of the ball; on the use scenario, the gate valve is suitable for completely opening and closing and leakage-proofing of strict occasions (e.g., water In terms of usage scenarios, gate valves are suitable for fully opening and closing and for strict leakage prevention (e.g. water treatment facilities), while ball valves are suitable for quick operation (e.g. fire protection systems). It is important to choose the right valve according to the actual needs and fluid characteristics.

Manual valves are key control elements in the pipeline fluid transportation system, widely used in industrial fields, designed to ensure smooth fluid transportation and safe operation of the system. This article focuses on four common types: manual butterfly valve (simple structure, convenient operation, divided into handle type and worm gear type, applicable to different caliber pipeline), manual gate valve (commonly used in water distribution system, divided into open rod and concealed rod type, opening and closing status intuitive), manual ball valve (used to cut off the flow, shunt and adjust the direction of flow, opening and closing parts for the ball) and manual disconnecting valve (good abrasion resistance, maintenance is convenient, but opening and closing torque, nominal diameter).

This paper evaluates the suitability of butterfly valves as regulating valves for fluid management in the industrial and construction sectors. The advantages of butterfly valves include simple design, small size, light weight, easy installation and maintenance, low operating torque, fast response and low flow resistance, which can reduce energy consumption and cost. However, its regulation accuracy is insufficient, the flow characteristic curve is nonlinear, and it is easy to cause flow fluctuation at small openings, and the sealing may decline and lead to leakage in long-term use. Therefore, butterfly valves are suitable for scenarios (such as ventilation or water supply and drainage systems) that do not require high regulation accuracy, have a wide range of flow variations, and emphasize cost and convenience; however, for high-precision demand scenarios (such as chemical production), ball valves or precision control valves are recommended.
