The electrically actuated wafer-type butterfly valve is designed for controlling fluid flow. In this type of valve, a rotary disc system driven by an electric motor is used. The disc is rotated to block or allow the fluid flow within the pipeline. Thanks to the electrically actuated system, no manual intervention is required.

Thanks to the wafer-type design, the valve is mounted between two flanges. During installation, there is no need to completely dismantle the pipeline. This feature provides ease of maintenance and saves space. In addition, compact body designs allow safe use even in confined spaces.

Where Is It Used?

These valves are preferred in fluid control systems that require high precision. They are widely used especially in HVAC applications, water treatment plants, and chemical processes. In addition, they are also applied in areas such as power plants, shipbuilding industry, and fire-fighting pipelines.

Technical Specifications and Structural Advantages

Body: Manufactured from GGG40.3 ductile cast iron.
Disc: Made of aluminum bronze alloy.
Shaft: Designed from SS 416 stainless steel.
Temperature Range: Operates between −10 °C and +110 °C.
Seal: Sealing is ensured with EPDM rubber.

Thanks to this technical structure, the valve delivers high performance under various industrial conditions. It offers long service life, especially in corrosive environments. Compared to other valve options such as U-PVC ball valves, it is capable of withstanding higher pressure levels.

Control Mechanism and Performance Details

The electric motor rotates the shaft inside the actuator. In this way, the disc is moved to open or close the valve. Fast response time is achieved in on–off control systems. In proportional control scenarios, precise flow regulation can be performed. The valve can also operate in an integrated manner with three-way systems.

Thanks to auxiliary equipment such as position sensors and switch boxes, position feedback can be obtained. This provides monitoring and control capabilities within centralized automation systems such as SCADA.
