Butterfly valve

A butterfly valve is a rotary motion control device that regulates flow by opening and closing via a quarter-turn action. It consists of a disc mounted on an axle, which rotates within a valve body to control the flow of fluids through a pipe or duct. The disc's rotation alters the valve's shape, allowing for precise flow regulation or complete blockage. This type of valve is commonly used in various applications due to its ease of operation and compact design.
