The Power of V-Torks Eccentric Butterfly Valves

Image
  Streamlining Flow Control Across Industries with Eccentric Butterfly Valves The Power of V-Torks Eccentric Butterfly Valves In the world of industrial flow control solutions,  butterfly valves  have carved a niche for themselves. But not all butterfly valves are created equal.  V-Tork Control  eccentric butterfly valves offer a distinct advantage, thanks to their innovative design that tackles some of the limitations faced by traditional concentric butterfly valves. Unveiling the Eccentric Advantage: Design and Functionality What are Eccentric Butterfly Valves? Unlike traditional concentric butterfly valves where the disc rotates around a central shaft aligned with the body centerline,  eccentric butterfly valves  feature an offset disc. This seemingly minor design change has a significant impact on performance. The shaft is positioned away from the center of the valve body, creating an eccentricity that offers several benefits. How Does the Eccentri...

Knife Gate Valve Selection for Waste Water Treatment

Knife Gate Valve for Waste Water Treatment by VTORK CONTROLS   To begin understanding how the waste  water treatment valves  process let us take a look in to these water treatment stations structures. The waste water treatment stations are designed in to a wet well or a wet and dry well design here the dry well usually contains the pumps and its related equipment. The valves that are deployed in a lift station are located in the basin of the wastewater, in a separate valve vault or in a dry well. The four main types of valves typically found in the lift stations include shutoff valves, check valves, air valves and  knife gate valves . The function of shutoff valves is the isolation when repair or maintenance is needed. The work of the check valve is preventing the reverse flow when the pump is turned off. Air valves are used to expel the air present in the pump column and the forces main to provide efficient flow to minimize the surges.  Knife gate valves  ...

Why Choosing Customized Valves is Essential — Insights from VTork Controls

Image
Choose the right customized valves from VTORK CONTROLS   Every operation differs in the industrial world, and so are equally different the problems associated with it. Off-the-shelf valves will do for regular applications, but when it comes to critical processes, dependence on such essential solutions will only result in inefficiency, long downtimes, and occasionally even very expensive failures.  Customized valves  offer made-to-order solutions to meet the exact needs of your application. Precision and Efficiency Custom uses can be designed into valves to ensure optimal system performance and efficiency. If a valve is designed and manufactured precisely for the application envisioned for it, then it will largely eliminate most of the leakage, corrosion, and wear issues seen with standard valves that have no place or ‘fit’ within the environment in which they work. This can facilitate selecting materials, coatings, and designs in the best possible way to cope with pressur...
