Wafer Butterfly Valve

African Valve is the prominent wafer type butterfly valve manufacturers in Nigeria, we supply high quality valves globally, ensuring swift and fast delivery. A Wafer type butterfly valve is a type of valve that is used to control the flow of fluids in the pipeline. They are called Wafer due to their thin structure, they are designed to fit between two flanges in the piping system. These valves consist of a disc that is mounted on a rotating shaft. When the valve is closed, the disc is turned to block the passageway, and when it is open, the disc is rotated a quarter turn to allow flow. Wafer valves are lightweight and thin in design, providing tight shutoff and preventing leakage, providing quick operation just by rotating 90 degrees using a lever, or gear, or can be automated with pneumatic or electric actuators.

 

Wafer check valves play a critical role in industries where space is a matter of concern, providing tight shut-off and quick operation in critical situations.
