Unox Wafer Type Butterfly Valve with 24V DC Electric Actuator

What is an Electric Actuated Wafer Type Butterfly Valve?

An electric actuated wafer type butterfly valve is a valve designed to control the flow of liquids through a pipeline. It consists of a circular disc mounted on a shaft that passes through the center of the valve body. The disc can rotate around the shaft to open or close the liquid flow through the valve. Electric actuation means the valve can be opened and closed using an electric motor instead of manual operation.

Wafer type butterfly valves are designed to be mounted between flanges using a wafer-shaped disc held in place by bolts between the flanges. This design allows for easy installation without cutting the pipe or making other modifications to the piping system.

Where Are Electric Actuated Wafer Type Butterfly Valves Used?

Electric actuated wafer type butterfly valves are commonly used in applications requiring precise fluid flow control, such as industrial processes or operation of power plants. They are also frequently used in emergency shutdown systems where fast and reliable valve operation is critical.
