What is an Electric Clamp Butterfly Valve?

An electric clamp butterfly valve is a type of valve that uses a rotating disk to regulate the flow of materials through a pipe. It consists of a body, a butterfly disc, a stem, and an actuator, which, in the case of electric models, is powered by an electric motor. The valve’s defining feature is the clamp connection, which provides a secure, leak-proof fit without the need for traditional flanged or threaded connections. This makes installation quicker and easier, while also allowing for reduced space requirements in installations. Butterfly valves are widely used due to their simple design, versatility, and ability to handle both high and low-pressure systems. The electric actuator allows for automatic operation, which makes the valve suitable for a variety of applications in industries such as water treatment, chemicals, food and beverage, and oil and gas.
