KSA VALVE CONTROL INC is the best High performance lug butterfly valve manufacturer in USA. A high-performance lug butterfly valve is a type of valve that is commonly used to regulate the flow of fluid in high-pressure and high-temperature applications. The valve is designed to provide reliable and efficient operation, with minimal maintenance and downtime.
The valve consists of a circular body that houses a disc or plate that rotates 90 degrees within the valve body to regulate the flow of fluid. The disc is attached to a stem that extends out of the valve body and is connected to an actuator or handle, which is used to rotate the disc and control the flow of fluid.The valve is named for the lugs or ears on the valve body that allow it to be bolted directly to a pipeline, eliminating the need for separate flanges. This design provides a compact and efficient valve that is easy to install and maintain.
- Body: The main part of the valve that houses the other components.
- Disc or plate: The component that rotates within the valve body to regulate the flow of fluid.
- Stem: The component that connects the disc to the actuator or handle.
- Actuator or handle: The component used to rotate the stem and control the flow of fluid.
- Seat: The component that forms a seal between the disc and the valve body, preventing leakage.
- Bi-directional lug butterfly valve: A valve that can be installed in either direction in the pipeline, without affecting its performance.
- Uni-directional lug butterfly valve: A valve that must be installed in a specific direction in the pipeline, to ensure proper performance and prevent leakage.
- Oil and gas: High-performance lug butterfly valves are commonly used in oil and gas production, processing, and transportation applications, where they can regulate the flow of crude oil, natural gas, and other fluids.
- Chemical and petrochemical: High-performance lug butterfly valves are used in chemical and petrochemical processing plants to regulate the flow of chemicals, solvents, and other fluids.
- Power generation: High-performance lug butterfly valves are used in power plants to control the flow of steam, cooling water, and other fluids.
- Water treatment: High-performance lug butterfly valves are used in water treatment plants to regulate the flow of water and other fluids.
- HVAC: High-performance lug butterfly valves are used in HVAC systems to regulate the flow of air and water.
- Marine and offshore: High-performance lug butterfly valves are used in marine and offshore applications, where they can regulate the flow of seawater, fuel, and other fluids.
- Compact and lightweight design, making them easy to install and maintain.
- Quick and easy operation, with minimal effort required to rotate the disc and control the flow of fluid.
