Working Principle Of Electric Butterfly Valve
An electric butterfly valve is a type of valve that uses an electric actuator to control the opening and closing of a butterfly valve. The working principle of an electric butterfly valve is based on the movement of a disc or plate, also known as a butterfly, which is placed in the path of the fluid flow.
The butterfly valve disc is mounted on a shaft, which is connected to the electric actuator. The electric actuator is powered by an electric motor, which rotates the shaft to control the movement of the butterfly valve disc.
When the electric actuator is activated, the motor rotates the shaft, which causes the butterfly valve disc to rotate, opening or closing the valve. The position of the butterfly valve disc is monitored by sensors that send feedback to the electric actuator to ensure that the valve is in the correct position.
The electric butterfly valve is designed to provide accurate and reliable control over the flow of fluid in a system. It is commonly used in applications where precise flow control is required, such as in water treatment plants, chemical processing plants, and HVAC systems.
