The bellow globe valve is particularly outstanding in terms of quality and life. It has a double seal to ensure zero leakage, and it is a safe and reliable standard for zero leakage of helium mass spectrometry. The number of bellows cycles can reach more than 10,000 cycles without damage, far exceeding the switch life of the ordinary shut-off valve packing seal several times. In addition, the bellows valve can prevent external dust from the valve body, ensuring the cleanliness of the medium. For example, under the conditions of high-purity silicon powder, pure oxygen, food, vacuum, etc., the performance of the bellows shut-off valve is very outstanding.   Ordinary shut-off valve packing and valve stems will have dynamic friction during the switching process, and the filler will be worn out and fail. Especially in the case of high temperature and low temperature, the filler will expand and contract as temperature changes. In summary, the advantages of bellows globe valves compared to conventional globe valves can be summarized as follows: 1. The bellows globe valve can meet the zero leakage standard of helium mass spectrometry detection, which is very safe and reliable. 2. The service life of the bellows cut-off valve is much higher than that of the ordinary globe valve. The packing of the ordinary globe valve is easy to be damaged and the replacement frequency is high. 3. Bellows Valve’s stem seal has a metal barrier that can be used in high-demand conditions such as oxygen, which requires absolute isolation inside and outside the valve. 4. The bellows valve has a double seal. When the bellows is intact, the filler is completely isolated from the medium, which protects the filler well and greatly prolongs the service life.

Q: Hi. I saw the butterfly valves in your website. Some of them is equipped with a handle,some a gearbox, and they all look to be about the same size. Are the two types of operation equivalent? When You Should Apply Gearbox To Butterfly Valve? A:Gearbox butterfly valves and handle butterfly valves are both butterfly valves that require manual operation, so both of them can also be referred to as manual butterfly valves. For small butterfly valves, the two types of operation can be common. The difference lies in the large-diameter butterfly valves. Specifically,manual operation is suitable for butterfly valves with a calibre ≤ DN200; And butterfly valves within DN200 can also be operated with agearbox. For butterfly valves of DN200 ormore,Gearbox operation is generally recommended. The reason is that as the calibre of the butterfly valve increases,  so does the torque. When the calibre exceeds DN200, it will be very hard to operate with the handle, and the larger the calibre, the harder it will be to operated by a handle. Therefore, if the caliber is DN200 or more, it is better to use a gearbox. When Dervos chellenged to manufacture a butterfly valve of DN3750, we used 4 gearbox to drive the gaint guy.

I believe that those of you who have dealt with valves are not unfamiliar with the names of these butterfly valves. However, Dervos found that there are still many friends who can't tell the differences between a concentric butterfly valve and aWafer butterfly valve, and some may even think that they are different names fora same valve. But it's not. This article will introduce you to the difference between a concentric butterfly valve and aWafer butterfly valve.   Concentric butterfly valve isnamed after the structural form of the valve. In addition to concentric butterfly valve, there are also single eccentric butterfly valve, double eccentric butterfly valve, triple eccentric butterfly valve several.They are named conforming tothe position of the centre of the butterfly plate in the valve body.In terms of structure,the concentric butterfly valve is characterized by the stem axis, the butterfly plate centre and the body centre being in the same position.   The concentric butterfly valve has a simple structure, and usually soft-seated. Rubber or PTFE or other resilient materials are most common;The concentric butterfly valve has very good sealing performance, and can achieve zero leakage. But limited by the sealing material itself, the concentric butterfly valve can only beapplied to normal temperature and low pressure environment. Its not recommended to use them in high temperature and high pressure.   Wafer butterfly valve is named according to the butterfly valve's connection method. In addition toWafer, there are also flange connections,clamp connection,socket-ed,welded and so on. Wafer butterfly valves can be soft-sealed ormetallic-sealed; they can be ofconcentric or eccentric.A concentric butterfly valves may be either clamped or flanged. Aconcentric butterfly valve may be aWafer connection, and aWafer butterfly valve may also be ofconcentric construction.   Therefore, the concentric and Wafer are two different butterfly valve classifications, the two are actually not comparable. Choose the correct butterfly valve according to the different working conditions, and that’s all.   Dervos is a leading valve manufacturer and provider of engineered products for different industries in China.

Can butterfly valves be used for hot water? In previous articles, we have introduced to you that butterfly valves are suitable for fresh water, sewage, sea water, salt water, steam, natural gas, food, pharmaceuticals, oil and other pipelines that require complete sealing, zero leakage in gas tests, high life expectancy and working temperatures from -10 degrees to 150 degrees. Weather butterfly valve can be used in hot water pipeline or not, in fact, the key lies in the valve seat sealing surface material ofthe butterfly valve body that contacts with hot wate rdirectly. The hot water we talk about is generally water above 70℃.There will be no problem at all if you use hard seal butterfly valves at these temperatures. But if it is a soft seal butterfly valve with a rubber sealed seat, can it be used for hot water? If you search the internet for the answer, you will see that many do not recommend the use of soft seal butterfly valves in hot water. The reasonis thatthe rubber seat of a soft seal butterfly valve will age more rapidly if it is exposed to hot water for a long period of time. The sealing performance of the valve will be damaged, thus shortening the service life of the valve. This statement is not a problem, the theoretical temperature range of rubber material is -20 ~ 150℃,but because of the various manufacturers produce rubber quality levels, inreal situations, this temperature range willnarrow down significantly in the hot water environment, of course. However, the soft seal butterfly valve is not completely inadequate for hot water piping. High temperature resistant rubber can be used, which is much more effective and lasts longer. And hard-sealed butterfly valves, ball valves, gate valves and globe valves can also be used instead.

The answer is definitely a NO!   In Structure, if space is limited   Gate valve relies on the medium pressure to tightly seal the surface, so as to achieve the effect of no leakage. When opening and closing, the disc and seat sealing surface are always in contact and rubbing each other,which leads to a worn sealing surface. When the gate valve is about to close, the pressure difference between the front and rear of the pipeline is very large, which also contribute to a more serious the sealing surface damage.   The structure of gate valve is more complex than that of globe valve. In terms of the shape gate valveis higher and more narrow than globe valve, assuming they are of same caliber. In addition, stem of gate valve falls into two categories, rising or non-rising, while globe valve’s stem does not. Working Principle Globe valves open and close with a rising stem, which means that when the handwheel is turned, the handwheel moves along with the stem up and down. As for gate valve, the handwheel is turned, stem move up and down, but handwheel itself stays at the same position.   Their flow rates vary. Gate valves have to be full opened or closed, while globe valves do not. Globe valves have a defined inlet and outlet direction, while gate valves do not.   In addition, the gate valve has only two states: fully open or fully closed,and the long travel of the disc results in a longer switching time.The time a globe vale needs is muchshorter. Most importantly, thedisc of the globe valve can stop at a certain place inthe valve body to do flow regulation. The gate valve can only be used for cut-off and has nosuch function. Performance differences Globe valves can be used for both cut-off and flow regulation. The fluid resistance of globe valve is relatively high, and it takes more effort to open and close, but because the distance between the valve plate and the sealing surface is short, the opening and closing stroke is short.   When gate valve is fully open, the medium flow resistance in the valve body channel is almost 0, so the gate valve opening and closingwon’t be very laborious. But the gate plate is far from the sealing surface, opening and closing time is longer.   Xiamen Dervos is an API Certified check valve manufacturing and trading company that specializes in the production of various kinds of valve.
