Description

Lever Operated Butterfly Valve

A lever operated butterfly valve is a compact quarter-turn valve designed for quick manual flow isolation and control. Its lever mechanism allows the operator to open or close the disc with a simple turning action. This design is suitable for applications where frequent manual operation is required.

Unitek Valves manufactures and supplies industrial butterfly valve solutions for different piping systems. Valve selection can be based on line size, pressure rating, media, temperature, body material, and connection type.

Lever Operated Butterfly Valves for Industrial Applications

Lever operated butterfly valves are commonly used in water treatment, HVAC systems, chemical processing, general industries, and utility pipelines. Their compact construction makes them suitable for installations where space and easy operation are important.

A lever type butterfly valve provides fast quarter-turn operation. The lever can be positioned to indicate the approximate opening or closing position, helping operators manage the valve during routine maintenance and flow isolation.

Manual Lever Operated Butterfly Valve

A manual lever operated butterfly valve does not require an external actuator or power supply. The operator can control the valve directly through the hand lever.

This arrangement can be useful for smaller and medium-sized piping systems where manual flow control is practical. Proper selection should consider operating torque, pressure, temperature, and media compatibility.

Wafer and Lug Designs

A wafer lever operated butterfly valve is installed between pipeline flanges and offers a compact connection arrangement. It is commonly selected for applications where installation space is limited.

A lug lever operated butterfly valve uses threaded lugs for pipeline connection. This configuration can be suitable for systems requiring convenient installation and maintenance.

Material and Seat Options

A stainless steel lever operated butterfly valve can be selected for applications requiring corrosion resistance and suitable media compatibility. Ductile iron and carbon steel options are also available for different industrial services.

A resilient seated lever butterfly valve uses an elastomeric sealing arrangement for suitable low-to-moderate temperature applications. A rubber lined lever operated butterfly valve can be considered for compatible water and utility services.

Water and Utility Applications

A water lever operated butterfly valve is commonly used in water supply, treatment plants, irrigation, cooling systems, and utility pipelines. The compact design allows convenient operation and efficient use of pipeline space.

Valve materials and sealing components should always be selected according to the water quality, pressure, temperature, and installation conditions.
