Butterfly Valve With Pneumatic Rotary Actuator

A butterfly valve is typically used for flow regulation in piping systems. In several industrial facilities, butterfly valves are equipped with actuators. An actuator is specialized mechanical device mainly used to start and stop valve systems, thus creating greater control of the gas or liquid flow. Butterfly valves find use only in low pressure and low temperature flow systems. Lightweight and short face-to-face dimension, they can be used both for isolation and regulating the flow of material using their characteristic quarter turn rotating action.
