The butterfly valve, as a compact, quick-opening, and low-resistance regulating valve, is widely used in industries such as water supply and drainage, HVAC, power, chemical, and paper-making. However, in practical engineering applications, improper consideration of the butterfly valve’s installation direction and spatial arrangement often leads to valve operating abnormalities, decreased sealing performance, and deviations in control accuracy. In severe cases, it can even cause system failures or frequent maintenance, resulting in unnecessary economic losses. Therefore, a correct understanding of the impact of installation orientation and spatial layout on butterfly valve performance is essential to ensure its reliable operation and extend its service life. 1. The Impact of Installation Orientation on Butterfly Valve Performance (1) Fluid Flow Direction and Its Effect on Sealing Performance For centerline butterfly valves, where the valve disc rotates around the valve shaft, the force is relatively symmetric, and the fluid flow direction has little impact on the sealing performance. Therefore, the flow direction requirement is not strict during installation. However, for eccentric butterfly valves, especially double-eccentric and triple-eccentric types, the seal design is based on the "flow-assisted compression" principle. That is, when the medium pressure comes from the specified direction, it pushes the valve disc toward the sealing seat, thereby enhancing the sealing effect. If the valve is installed in the opposite direction of the flow arrow marked by the manufacturer, the reverse fluid flow will wash the valve disc. Not only will the expected sealing effect not form, but it may also create gaps between the sealing surfaces, accelerate valve seat wear, and cause internal leakage, making it impossible to close the valve completely. Therefore, the installation of eccentric butterfly valves must strictly follow the flow direction requirements. (2) Valve Shaft Orientation and Its Effect on Opening/Closing Torque and Actuator The installation orientation of the valve shaft (horizontal or vertical) has a significant impact on the opening/closing performance, valve body stress, and actuator life. Most medium and small-sized butterfly valves are installed with the valve shaft in the horizontal position. This method facilitates the alignment of the valve body with the pipeline and the arrangement of the actuator. However, for large-diameter butterfly valves or those installed in high locations or vertical pipelines, the valve shaft is often vertical. In this position, the weight of the valve disc directly acts on the valve shaft, especially when the valve disc is in the open position, where its center of gravity deviates from the axis, creating a large eccentric torque and increasing the axial load during opening and closing. If the actuator does not account for this additional load, it may result in po...

Our ongoing commitment is providing partners with professional support and premium services, fostering mutual growth and win-win success.
To mark this milestone in Dervos Valve’s journey, we came together not just to celebrate, but to connect with the partners who have supported us along the way. This anniversary is a tribute to enduring partnerships and a sha- red vision for the future. On the occasion of Dervos Valve’s 17th anniversary, our valued partners were specially invited to visit our headquarters for in-depth, face-to-face exchanges with the team. These meaningful interactions deep- ened mutual understanding andtrust, laying a solid foundation for even stronger cooperation in the future. Accompanied by our team, the clients toured the office area and were introduced to colleagues from various departments. The interactions were relaxed and friendly, creating a warm atmosphere that further strengthened mutual understanding. Following the tour, our sales team delivered a themed presentation on “Dervos 17th Anniversary,” offering the clients a comprehensive overview of the company's development journey, core strengths, and service philosophy. We also expres- sed our heartfelt gratitude and warm welcome to our valued partners. Through this session, the clients gained a deeper understanding of Dervos, enabling us to better tailor our services to their needs.

This moment not only reflected cultural recognition but also a genuine expression of the emotional bond and trust shared through our partnership. Next, we arrived at the highlight of the anniversary celebration— the Dervos Valve 17th Anniversary Gala Dinner, a moment of gratitude and shared celebration. We arranged a visit to the "Yu Jian Minnan" Cultural Park for our clients, where they explored the ancient architectu- ral district and experienced the traditional art of rubbings, immersing themselves in the charm and craftsman- ship of Chinese culture. In the evening, a red carpet was laid out in front of the hotel, where the Dervos team warmly welcomed guests, coming together with partners from around the world to witness this moment of honor. As the lights came on, the anniversary gala dinner officially began. The venue was decorated in a grand and festive style, with a warm and lively atmosphere.

What is a top entry ball valve and its advantage?
A top entry ball valve is the valve which we assemble from the top side. It has a one single piece body. The less thread connection on the valve body means less weight and leakage paths. Plus, we could have access to the ball part without removing it from the pipeline. The top entry ball valves are often used in the pipeline with less maintenance for internal parts.
