These valves stand out due to their practical design and efficient operating principles. They are particularly effective in directing water, gas, and chemical substances. However, each butterfly valve has different characteristics, so technical details must be carefully considered when making a selection. So, what are the types of butterfly valves and their technical differences?     <\/p>\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Sayfa \u0130\u00e7eri\u011fi<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/unox.com.tr\/en\/types-of-butterfly-valves-and-their-technical-differences\/#Manual_Butterfly_Valves_and_Their_Application_Areas\" >Manual Butterfly Valves and Their Application Areas<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/unox.com.tr\/en\/types-of-butterfly-valves-and-their-technical-differences\/#Advantages_of_Actuated_Butterfly_Valves\" >Advantages of Actuated Butterfly Valves<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/unox.com.tr\/en\/types-of-butterfly-valves-and-their-technical-differences\/#Difference_Between_Metal-Bodied_and_Plastic-Bodied_Valves\" >Difference Between Metal-Bodied and Plastic-Bodied Valves<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/unox.com.tr\/en\/types-of-butterfly-valves-and-their-technical-differences\/#Technical_Details_of_Disc_and_Seat_Materials\" >Technical Details of Disc and Seat Materials<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/unox.com.tr\/en\/types-of-butterfly-valves-and-their-technical-differences\/#Differences_Between_Flanged_and_Lug_Type_Butterfly_Valves\" >Differences Between Flanged and Lug Type Butterfly Valves<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/unox.com.tr\/en\/types-of-butterfly-valves-and-their-technical-differences\/#Key_Considerations_When_Selecting_a_Butterfly_Valve\" >Key Considerations When Selecting a Butterfly Valve<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-manuel-kelebek-vanalar-ve-kullanim-alanlari\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Manual_Butterfly_Valves_and_Their_Application_Areas\"><\/span>Manual Butterfly Valves and Their Application Areas<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>Manual butterfly valves are opened or closed by means of a hand-operated lever. They are generally preferred in low-pressure systems and operate effectively in irrigation lines and small-diameter piping installations. However, these valves may be insufficient in systems that require automation. To review the products developed with UNOX\u2019s expert engineering, you may visit the <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/unox.com.tr\/en\/\">UNOX<\/a> website.    <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-aktuatorlu-kelebek-vanalarin-avantajlari\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages_of_Actuated_Butterfly_Valves\"><\/span>Advantages of Actuated Butterfly Valves<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>These valves, operated by electric or pneumatic actuators, provide remote control capability. This feature offers significant convenience, especially in automation systems. However, they cannot operate without an energy source. With their technical specifications, they deliver high efficiency across various industries. To access detailed technical documentation of the products, you may visit the <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.unoxonline.com.tr\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">unoxonline<\/a> website.    <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-metal-govdeli-ve-plastik-govdeli-vanalarin-farki\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Difference_Between_Metal-Bodied_and_Plastic-Bodied_Valves\"><\/span>Difference Between Metal-Bodied and Plastic-Bodied Valves<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>Metal-bodied butterfly valves are resistant to high pressure and offer long service life. However, these valves are more expensive compared to plastic models. Plastic-bodied valves, on the other hand, are cost-effective and lightweight, but their temperature resistance is limited. To determine the most suitable option for your application, you can receive expert support via the <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/unox.com.tr\/en\/contact\/\">UNOX<\/a> website.    <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-disk-ve-conta-malzemelerindeki-teknik-detaylar\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Technical_Details_of_Disc_and_Seat_Materials\"><\/span>Technical Details of Disc and Seat Materials<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>The performance of butterfly valves varies depending on the disc and seat materials. When the disc is manufactured from stainless steel, it provides resistance against chemicals; however, this may increase the overall cost. For the seat, different materials such as EPDM, NBR, and PTFE are used. Each material offers advantages under different temperature and pressure conditions. If you need support in material selection, the <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.unoxonline.com.tr\/iletisim\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">unoxonline<\/a> website can assist you.     <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-flansli-ve-lug-tipi-kelebek-vana-farkliliklari\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Differences_Between_Flanged_and_Lug_Type_Butterfly_Valves\"><\/span>Differences Between Flanged and Lug Type Butterfly Valves<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>Flanged butterfly valves are installed between two flanges. This type of valve is used in locations where the system may need to be dismantled; however, the installation process takes longer. Lug type butterfly valves, on the other hand, are mounted using bolts, allowing maintenance to be performed without removing the valve from the piping system. This results in significant time savings. To compare the details of both models, you can review the information available on the <a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.unoxonline.com.tr\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">unoxonline<\/a> website.      <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-kelebek-vana-seciminde-dikkat-edilmesi-gerekenler\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_Considerations_When_Selecting_a_Butterfly_Valve\"><\/span>Key Considerations When Selecting a Butterfly Valve<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>For proper valve selection, the operating pressure, temperature, and type of fluid must be taken into consideration. In addition, the valve body, disc material, and seat structure should be compatible with each other. However, not only technical specifications but also the intended application are important.
