Middleeast valve is the largest Butterfly Valve suppliers in Saudi Arabia. We supply to cities like Muscat, Salalah, Sur, and Seeb.
A butterfly valve is a type of quarter-turn valve that regulates the flow of fluids (liquids, gases, or slurries) through a pipe or duct by using a flat circular disc (the "butterfly") positioned perpendicular to the flow direction. This disc is connected to a rod or shaft at its center. By rotating the disc a quarter turn (90 degrees), the valve can either fully open or fully close, allowing for quick and efficient control of fluid flow.
Functions of a Butterfly Valve:
· Flow Regulation: Butterfly valves are used to control the rate of flow of fluids through a pipeline by adjusting the angle of the disc.
· Isolation: They can fully close to isolate a section of a pipeline, preventing fluid from passing through.
· Quick Operation: Due to their quarter-turn design, butterfly valves can be operated rapidly, making them suitable for applications that require quick on/off control.
Working of a Butterfly Valve:
When the valve is in the fully open position, the disc is rotated parallel to the fluid flow direction, allowing unrestricted flow through the pipe. To close the valve, the disc is rotated by 90 degrees to block the flow path completely. The disc's rotation is controlled by turning the valve handle or actuator, which is connected to the valve stem. This simple mechanism makes butterfly valves quick to operate.
The disc is typically made from metal or a composite material, and the valve seat, which the disc contacts when closed, is made from rubber, elastomer, or metal. When the disc is turned, it either creates a seal against the seat (closed position) or allows fluid to pass around the disc (open position).
Middleeast valve is the prime Butterfly Valve suppliers in Saudi Arabia and offer efficient flow control and isolation with their quarter-turn operation. The choice of type depends on factors such as the application's requirements for sealing, pressure, temperature, and corrosiveness.
