What are the differences between butterfly valve and gate valve?

1. How to act.

For gate valves with stable performance on the market, the valve stem drives the valve plate to make vertical movement up and down to open and close the valve. This unique operation mode can ensure that all water flows are cut off in time to achieve better shutoff effect; The butterfly valve can be opened and closed through the rotary movement of the valve plate, so as to maintain the requirement of rapid opening and closing.

2. Use effect.

The gate valve can ensure better sealing effect when in use, after all, the valve plate can be connected to the corresponding rail; The butterfly valve has certain water flow regulation function, which can be used for quick opening and closing, but its sealing performance is far lower than that of the gate valve.

3. Use direction.

The professional gate valve products have good use effect and excellent sealing performance, and can be used in some occasions with high sealing requirements; The butterfly valve is small and can be used in places with limited installation space. After all, the performance of gate valve and butterfly valve is quite different.
