South American Valve is the best Butterfly Valve Supplier in Mexico (Válvula de mariposa) We supply to Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Suriname. A butterfly valve is a type of quarter-turn rotary valve that is used to control the flow of fluid through a piping system.

The design of a butterfly valve is characterized by a flat, circular disc or plate that is mounted on a rod. When the valve is in the closed position, the disc completely blocks the passageway, and when it is in the open position, the disc is turned perpendicular to the flow, allowing for unobstructed fluid passage. South American Valve is the best Butterfly Valve Supplier in Mexico (Válvula de mariposa)The body of a butterfly valve is typically made of metal, such as cast iron, ductile iron, carbon steel, stainless steel, or various alloys. It serves as the main structural component, providing support and housing for other valve elements.

The disc, also known as the “butterfly,” is a flat, circular plate that is mounted on the valve stem in the center of the pipe. The disc is responsible for regulating the flow by either fully closing or opening the valve. Butterfly valves are generally designed to allow bidirectional flow, meaning they can be installed in either direction without affecting their performance.

Types:

• Wafer Butterfly Valve
• Flanged Butterfly Valve
• Triple Eccentric Butterfly Valve
• Double Offset Butterfly Valve
• Triple Offset Butterfly Valve
• Lug Butterfly Valve

Advantages:

• • They are often more cost-effective than other types of valves.

• • These valves have a compact and lightweight design which makes them easy to install and requires less structural support in the piping system.

• • They operate with a quarter-turn mechanism, allowing for rapid opening and closing.

• • Butterfly valves typically have a lower pressure drop across the valve compared to some other types, which means they cause less resistance to fluid flow.

• • They are designed to provide a bidirectional seal, meaning they can effectively block flow in both directions.

• • They are well-suited for automation using electric, pneumatic, or hydraulic actuators.

• • The compact design of butterfly valves makes them space-efficient, especially in applications where space constraints are a concern.

• • Butterfly valves are versatile and can handle a wide range of media, including liquids, gases, and slurries.

• • The simplicity of the design contributes to lower maintenance requirements.

• • Their design often leads to quicker and easier installation compared to more complex valve types.

• • Resilient-seated butterfly valves, with elastomeric seats, provide a tight seal, reducing the likelihood of leakage.
