KSA VALVE CONTROL INC is the Leading Flanged Butterfly Valve Manufacturer in Africa. A flanged butterfly valve is a type of valve that is used to regulate or shut off the flow of a fluid in a pipeline. It gets its name from the shape of the disc that controls the flow of the fluid. The disc is shaped like a butterfly, with a stem that passes through the center of the disc.
The valve is attached to the pipeline by means of flanges, which are flat rings that are bolted together to connect the valve to the pipeline. Flanged connections are commonly used in industrial applications where large volumes of fluid need to be transported.
Flanged Butterfly Valve Manufacturer in Africa provides several types of valves, including:
- Wafer butterfly valve

- Double offset butterfly valve
- Triple offset butterfly valve
- High-performance butterfly valve
- Resilient-seated butterfly valve

Advantages
- Lightweight and compact design: Butterfly valves are generally lighter and more compact than other types of valves, making them easier to install and requiring less space in the pipeline.
- Easy to operate: The simple design of the valve makes it easy to operate, either manually or with an actuator.
- Quick opening and closing: The disc of a butterfly valve can be rotated quickly, making it ideal for applications where rapid opening and closing is required.
- Cost-effective: Butterfly valves are often less expensive than other types of valves, making them a cost-effective option for many applications.
- Low maintenance: Due to their simple design, butterfly valves require less maintenance than other types of valves.
Industries
- Water treatment
- Chemical processing
- Oil and gas production
- Power generation
Applications
- On/Off Control: Butterfly valves can be used for simple on/off control of the flow of fluids in a pipeline.
- Flow Regulation: Butterfly valves can also be used to regulate the flow of fluids in a pipeline, either partially or completely.
- Throttling: Butterfly valves can be used to control the rate of fluid flow through a pipeline, which is known as throttling.
- Pressure Control: Butterfly valves can be used to regulate the pressure of fluid in a pipeline, by controlling the flow rate of the fluid.
- Vacuum Service: Butterfly valves can be used in vacuum service applications, to control the flow of air or gas through a vacuum system.
- Corrosive Applications: Butterfly valves can be used in corrosive applications, as they can be made from materials such as PVC, CPVC, or other corrosion-resistant materials.
