Gear Operated Butterfly Valve

Gear operated butterfly valve is a type of manual valve that uses a minimum of 2:1 gearing to increase the amount of mechanical advantage used to turn the valve’s disc. This gearbox significantly reduces the amount of torque needed to open and close the valve, making it ideal for use in facilities with limited operating space. It acts as a type of flow control valve, meaning that it controls the flow of liquids and gases, but not necessarily their pressure. These valves are used in many different industries and environments, including water, gas, and other fluids.
