Inside the valve body, there is a drilled ball that regulates the passage of the fluid. The ball is rotated by turning the valve handle. Ball valves are typically used in fully open or fully closed positions.   <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_a_Butterfly_Valve\"><\/span><strong>What is a Butterfly Valve?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/unox.com.tr\/en\/butterfly-valves\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/unox.com.tr\/kelebek-vana\/\">A butterfly valve<\/a> is a type of valve used to control fluid flow. Inside the valve body, there is a disc that regulates the passage of the fluid. The disc is rotated by turning the valve handle. Butterfly valves can be used in fully open, fully closed, or partially open positions.   <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Differences_Between_Ball_Valves_and_Butterfly_Valves\"><\/span><strong>Differences Between Ball Valves and Butterfly Valves:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p>Sealing: Ball valves provide better sealing compared to butterfly valves.<\/p>\n\n<p> Pressure: Ball valves can withstand higher pressures compared to butterfly valves. <\/p>\n\n<p>Flow Control: Butterfly valves provide better flow control compared to ball valves. <\/p>\n\n<p>Cost: Butterfly valves are more cost-effective compared to ball valves.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ball_Valve_or_Butterfly_Valve_Which_One_Is_Better\"><\/span>Ball Valve or Butterfly Valve: Which One Is Better?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<p>The answer to whether a ball valve or a butterfly valve is better depends on your application. If you need better sealing and pressure resistance, a ball valve is the better choice. If you need better flow control and a more cost-effective valve, a butterfly valve is the better option.  <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion:<br\/><br\/><\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Ball valves and butterfly valves are two common types of valves used to control fluid flow in piping systems.
