A butterfly valve is a type of rotary valve known for its compact structure, lightweight design, and fast opening and closing performance. It is widely used in industries such as water treatment, chemical processing, oil and gas, and power generation to shut off or regulate fluid flow. What Is a Butterfly Valve? A butterfly valve is a type of valve that uses a circular disc (also known as a...

Globe valves are widely used across various industrial systems to control the start, stop, and regulation of fluid flow. However, in real-world operation, many users face a common question: how to accurately determine whether a globe valve is currently open or closed? This article will explain in detail how to identify the open or closed status of a globe valve based on its structural design, hand...

Introduction In industrial fluid control systems, gate valves, as a type of shut-off valve, have long played a key role in opening and closing operations. With increasingly complex operating conditions, higher demands are being placed on valves in terms of corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and service life. Among the many available materials, duplex stainless steel (ASTM A995 5A) combi...

1.Introduction In the transportation and storage of cryogenic media such as liquefied natural gas (LNG), liquid nitrogen, liquid oxygen, and liquid hydrogen, the reliability and maintainability of valves are of critical importance. Cryogenic butterfly valves are not only capable of operating reliably under extreme low temperatures, but are also designed with “easy maintenance” i...
