How To Connect The Pipeline Through The Flange Of The Sanitary Flange Butterfly Valve
Sanitary Butterfly Valve is a commonly used pipe connection device. It connects pipes through flanges and is widely used in fluid control systems in industrial production. Sanitary flange butterfly valves are widely used in food, pharmaceutical and other industries. They have sanitary characteristics and can meet strict hygiene requirements.
1. Choose the right flange butterfly valve
Before using a sanitary flange butterfly valve to connect pipes, you need to choose a suitable butterfly valve. According to actual needs and use environment, choose a flange butterfly valve whose material meets sanitary requirements. Generally, stainless steel is a common choice for sanitary valves because stainless steel has good corrosion resistance and hygiene.
2. Perform installation preparations
Before installing a sanitary flange butterfly valve, some preparations need to be performed. Check the connection ports of the pipe and valve to ensure that there is no obvious damage or contaminants. Then, clean the connection surfaces of the flange and pipe to ensure that the connection is tight and sanitary.
3. Perform flange connection
When performing flange connection, apply a sealing rubber ring to the flange and then place the valve on the flange. Next, pass the bolt through the flange hole and tighten the nut gently, but not too tight. Tighten the bolts gradually in a cross-symmetrical order to ensure a secure connection. Then, use a wrench to tighten the bolts to the specified torque.
Through the above steps, the sanitary flange butterfly valve can be successfully connected to the pipeline. During use, the following points should also be noted:
Regularly check whether the flange connection is loose or leaking. If problems are found, adjust or replace the sealing rubber ring in time. Avoid using excessive force to tighten the bolts to avoid damaging the flange or seal. When using sanitary flange butterfly valves, pay attention to controlling the fluid pressure and temperature to avoid exceeding the load range of the equipment.
Sanitary flange butterfly valves can play an important role in fluid control in industrial production by connecting pipelines through flanges. Correctly selecting the right valve, doing preparatory work and paying attention to the details of use can ensure a secure and hygienic connection. In practical applications, the appropriate flange butterfly valve should be selected according to the specific situation, and the operating procedures should be followed to ensure the normal operation of the system.
