國(guó)外選擇蝶閥時(shí)所考慮的因素

使用壽命 Operating Life　　 

蝶閥在使用10,000次以上，仍然能夠保證關(guān)閉時(shí)“不透氣”。 

Butterfly valves can operate for more than 10,000 cycles and still provide "bubble tight" shut off. 

壓降 Pressure Drop　　

如果壓降太大，會(huì)增加能量消耗。但是，應(yīng)該知道的是，閥門并不是管道系統(tǒng)產(chǎn)生壓降的*因素，導(dǎo)致壓降的產(chǎn)生還有下列因素。  

國(guó)外選擇蝶閥時(shí)所考慮的因素

管道的流體截面。  

管道內(nèi)壁的摩擦力。  

通過(guò)部件時(shí)流向的改變。  

蝶閥的流體特性相當(dāng)于截止閥的三倍甚更高，相當(dāng)于同樣尺寸的閘閥的75%.  

Energy costs go up with excessive pressure drop. Point to keep in mind–the valve or valves are but one factor in a piping system that contribute to pressure drop. Of equal concern are these factors: 

Flow area of piping.  

Friction loss against pipe walls.  

Change of flow direction via fittings.  

Butterfly valves have flow characteristics 

three times better than globe valves and 

approximay 75% of an equivalent size gate valve.

通用性 Versatility　　

蝶閥通過(guò)開啟／關(guān)閉和節(jié)流／平衡來(lái)對(duì)管道系統(tǒng)進(jìn)行控制和調(diào)節(jié)。與閘閥或截止閥相比，蝶閥具有更好的“通用性”。由于蝶閥能夠采用各種表面處理技術(shù)和選擇彈性材料管道，所以蝶閥具有*的化學(xué)防腐性能。 

Butterfly valves can be used for on/off service and throttling/balancing. 

They are superior in “versatility” as compared to a gate or globe valve. 

Butterfly valves have a wider range of chemical resistance due to the trim options and choice of elastomeric liners. 

重量 Weight　　

輕型蝶閥的安裝費(fèi)用比重型鑄鐵閥門節(jié)省的多：例如，一個(gè)公稱通徑10英寸的蝶閥重55磅，而一個(gè)10英寸的鑄鐵閘閥重量就高達(dá)490磅。對(duì)于整個(gè)管 道系統(tǒng)來(lái)說(shuō)，采用蝶閥所節(jié)省下來(lái)的安裝費(fèi)用就非?？捎^。此外，管道系統(tǒng)越重，就要求管道支撐基座要堅(jiān)固，因此導(dǎo)致整個(gè)管道系統(tǒng)更加昂貴。所以，考慮到閥門 的重量，就能夠節(jié)約整個(gè)管道系統(tǒng)的成本。 

Installation dollars saved with lightweight butterfly valves as compared to heavyweight cast iron valves; 

i.e. a 10" butterfly may weigh 55 pounds, whereas a 10" iron gate may weigh 490 pounds. This can be an important savings when it is calculated over an entire system. The heavier the system, the stronger the pipe hangers, and the more expensive they become. So by considering the weight of a valve one can also reduce piping system costs.

尺寸大小 Physical Size　　

蝶閥所占的空間大約是同等尺寸閘閥的1/6。而每增加一立方英尺的建筑物空間，就意味著成本的浪費(fèi)。 

例如：公稱通徑10英寸的蝶閥大約是21英寸高，而公稱通徑10英寸的閘閥則高達(dá)43英寸。 

Butterfly valves take up approximay 1/6 the space of a gate valve. Every cubic foot of a building costs money. 

I.E.: 10" butterfly is about 21" high 10" iron gate is about 43" high 

氣密性關(guān)閉 Bubble Tight Shut-Off　　

閘閥和截止閥（金屬與金屬連接）的閥座不具備不透氣關(guān)閉的性能。Gate and globe (metal to metal) seats cannot provide bubble tight shut-off. Resilient seated butterfly valves are bubble tight by design. 

操作簡(jiǎn)便 Ease of Operation　　

蝶閥從開啟到關(guān)閉只需要旋轉(zhuǎn)1/4轉(zhuǎn)（90o）。而閘閥和截止閥需要旋轉(zhuǎn)很多轉(zhuǎn)才能將閥門從開啟狀態(tài)轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)殛P(guān)閉狀態(tài)。開啟或關(guān)閉簡(jiǎn)便易行意味著不需要雇用工資太高的操作人員來(lái)操作蝶閥。 

Butterfly valves offer 1/4 turn (90o) open to close. Gates and globes require multiple turns to open and close. 

Ease of opening or closing means that butterfly valves can employ less expensive operators. 

成本 Cost　　

一個(gè)蝶閥的成本通常只有鑄鐵閘閥的40%，不但購(gòu)買成本低，而且安裝成本也比較低。 

A butterfly valve is generally 40% the cost of an iron gate. Not only low initial cost but low installation costs also. 

維護(hù)保養(yǎng) Maintenance　　

由于蝶閥具有很高的六體系數(shù)和性能很好的彈性閥座，因此蝶閥具有自動(dòng)清洗功能，降低了管道被拉雞雜物堵塞的可能性。 

Properly installed butterfly valves are virtually self cleaning and are less susceptible to failure due to trash material in the line.
