Advantages and maintenance of pneumatic butterfly valves

Pneumatic butterfly valve plays an important role in our life, is to use the circular butterfly plate rotating with the valve stem to do the opening and closing, in order to realize the pneumatic valve mainly for the use of cut valve, but also can be designed to have the function of adjustment or section valve and adjustment, butterfly valve is used more and more in low pressure large and medium diameter pipeline.

Main advantages of the pneumatic butterfly valve:

1. Small and light, easy to disassemble and repair, and can be installed in any position.

2. The structure is simple, compact, small operating torque, and 90 rotation opens quickly.

3. The flow characteristics tend to be in a straight line, with good adjustment performance.

4. The connection between the butterfly plate and the valve rod adopts the seedless structure to overcome the possible internal leakage point.

5. The outer circle of the butterfly board adopts spherical shape, which improves the sealing performance and extends the service life of the valve, and still maintains zero leakage at more than 50,000 times.

6. The seal can be replaced, and the seal is reliable to achieve two-way sealing.

7. Butterfly plate can be sprayed according to user requirements, such as nylon or polytetrafluoride.

8. Pneumatic butterfly valve can be designed into flange connection and wafer connection.

9. The drive mode can be selected as manual, electric, or pneumatic.

Pneumatic butterfly valve is composed of three parts, solenoid valve, cylinder, valve body, for the maintenance of pneumatic butterfly valve should also start from these three aspects.

1. Check and maintenance of solenoid valve and silencer.

It is recommended that you check and maintain the solenoid valve every 6 months. The main inspection items are: whether the solenoid valve is dirty, whether the spool is free; whether the muffler is dirty and unobstructed; whether the air source is clean and without moisture.

2. Cylinder inspection and maintenance.

In ordinary use, do a good job of cylinder surface cleaning, timely refueling in the cylinder rotating shaft card spring, open the cylinder end head regularly every 6 months, check whether there is debris and moisture in the cylinder, as well as the state of grease. If the grease is missing or is dry, remove the cylinder for full maintenance and cleaning before adding grease.

3. Inspection and maintenance of the valve body.

Every 6 months, check whether the appearance of the valve body is good, whether the flange is leaked, if convenient, and also check whether the valve body seal is good, whether there is no wear, whether the valve plate operation is flexible, whether the valve is stuck with foreign bodies.
