Among numerous types of valves, both the cast steel flanged gate valve and the butterfly valve are common choices in industrial and various pipeline systems. However, when we conduct an in-depth comparison between the J-VALVES cast steel flanged gate valve and the butterfly valve, we will find that the former has significant advantages in terms of high-efficiency opening and closing functions, and a series of intuitive data serves as powerful proof.
Understanding Double Eccentric Butterfly ValvesDesign and StructureDouble eccentric butterfly valves are characterized by their unique design, which includes two offset features:1. First Eccentricity: The valve stem is offset from the center of the valve body, allowing the disc to lift away from the
Gate Valves: Design Standards and Industry NormsStructure and FunctionGate valves are linear motion valves that use a gate or wedge to control the flow of fluids. The gate moves perpendicular to the flow direction, allowing for precise control and reliable sealing. When fully open, the gate is retra
Understanding Butterfly Valves in Water Treatment SystemsStructure and FunctionButterfly valves are quarter-turn valves that use a flat disc mounted on a rotating stem to control the flow of fluids. The disc rotates to open or close the valve, and it remains in the flow path even when the valve is f
Understanding Flanged Butterfly ValvesDesign and OperationFlanged butterfly valves feature flanged ends that allow for easy connection to pipelines using bolts and gaskets. The flanged design provides a secure and reliable connection, making these valves suitable for a wide range of applications.Key
Understanding Butterfly Valve LifespanCommon Challenges• Corrosion: Exposure to corrosive media can degrade valve materials, leading to leaks and reduced performance.• Wear and Tear: Frequent operation and harsh operating conditions can cause mechanical wear, affecting the valve's sealing capabiliti
High-temperature and high-pressure butterfly valves are critical components in various industrial applications, including power generation, oil and gas, and chemical processing. These valves must withstand extreme operating conditions while maintaining reliable performance and ensuring safety. Desig
Understanding EN 593 StandardScope and ApplicabilityEN 593 is a European standard that specifies the minimum general requirements for metallic butterfly valves used in various applications, including water supply and wastewater treatment. The standard covers a wide range of sizes and pressure rating

In the modern industrial field, pipeline systems are like the blood vessels of the human body, responsible for transporting various fluid media. As a key component in pipeline systems, the performance of valves directly affects the operational efficiency and safety of the entire system. The centerli
In industrial fluid control systems, valves are the core control components, and their selection directly affects the operating efficiency, safety, and economy of the system. Ball valves and butterfly valves, as two common types of valves, each have their unique structural features, performance adva
