Electric flanged butterfly valves are widely used in industrial systems to regulate or isolate the flow of liquids and gases in pipelines. These valves combine the functional benefits of butterfly valves with electric actuation, offering precision and ease of control. Among the companies making significant advancements in automation technology, Helix Automation stands out as a leader in providing innovative solutions for industries across the globe. This article explores the design, functionality, and applications of electric flanged butterfly valves, while highlighting how Helix Automation contributes to industrial efficiency.

    What is an Electric Flanged Butterfly Valve?

    An electric flanged butterfly valve consists of a circular disc mounted on a shaft, which rotates to open or close the valve. When the valve is in the closed position, the disc completely blocks the flow of the fluid; when open, it allows the fluid to pass through the pipeline. The "flanged" part refers to the valve’s connection type, where the valve body is flanged to match the flanges of a pipeline for secure installation.
