Basic Details:
A gear-operated manual butterfly valve is a flow control device used to regulate or isolate the movement of liquids or gases in a pipeline. It features a circular disc mounted on a rotating shaft, and its operation is controlled through a handwheel connected to a gearbox. This gear mechanism makes it easy to open or close the valve smoothly, even in large-diameter pipelines where higher torque is required.
Key Features:
