The difference between gate valve and butterfly valve

In the many valve products, gate valves and butterfly valves are the most commonly used valve models, the following we will understand the difference between the two types of valves from several aspects.

Soft seal gate valve for sale product description: The soft seal gate valve is a type of valve that uses a soft material, such as rubber or PTFE, to create a seal between the gate and the valve body. This design helps to prevent leakage and ensures smooth operation. The valve is suitable for various applications, including water, oil, and gas systems. It is easy to install and maintain, making it a reliable choice for industrial use.

蝶阀: 蝶阀属于角行程阀门，即蝶阀的阀板围绕阀轴旋转90度，完成蝶阀的开启和关闭，因此蝶阀的开启高度仅为通道直径的四分之一，因此蝶阀开启和关闭迅速灵敏。

Butterfly valve product description: 蝶阀是一种旋转式阀门，由阀体、阀杆、阀板和密封圈等部件组成。蝶阀的阀板在阀体内旋转，通过控制阀板的旋转角度来实现流体介质的控制。蝶阀具有结构简单、操作方便、启闭快捷等特点，广泛应用于工业管道系统中。

Working conditions and media butterfly valve is suitable for furnace, gas, natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, city gas, hot and cold wind, chemical smelting power generation, environmental protection, building water supply and drainage and other engineering systems to transport a variety of corrosive and non-corrosive fluids on the pipeline, used to regulate and cut off the flow of media.

Gate valve is a type of valve that opens and closes by the movement of a gate perpendicular to the direction of the fluid flow. The gate valve can only be fully open or fully closed, and has an inclination angle of 2°52'. To enhance its craftsmanship and compensate for any deviation in the sealing surface angle during processing, this gate is referred to as an elastic gate.

When the gate valve is closed, the sealing surface is sealed only by the medium pressure, that is, only by the medium pressure of the sealing surface of the gate plate to the other side of the valve seat, to ensure that the sealing surface of the sealing surface of the seal, is a self-sealing. Most gate valves are forced sealing, that is, when the valve is closed, the gate must be forced by external force on the valve seat to ensure that the sealing surface of the tightness.

In many cases, butterfly valves have gradually replaced other types of valves. The main difference between gate valves and butterfly valves is that gate valves do not have an adjustment function, while butterfly valves have an adjustment function.
