Keys to CMO Valves Butterfly Valves

Working as a team is the best asset. The experience and knowledge of each one, with their capacity for technological innovation, constitute the basis and the engine of CMO Valves, a company dedicated to the design, manufacture and adjustment of valves, both standard and special. Its wide production range allows it to cover countless industrial applications and control all kinds of fluids.

Next, we are going to analyze the characteristics of a certain type of butterfly valves.

General characteristics of the ME series butterfly valve

This butterfly valve is suitable both for working in line, as well as to act as a safety valve in cases of emergency. It is widely used in forced conduits, in hydroelectric plants. It is unidirectional and has double eccentricity.

The differential pressure at which these valves can work is highly variable, since they are designed for the needs of each specific project, but they can withstand pressures of up to 100 kg/cm².

The maximum fluid speed with which they can work is 4.9 m/s.

Advantages of the ME series butterfly valve

The main feature of the ME butterfly valve is its double eccentricity design. Thanks to it, a very effective closing system is obtained. As soon as the valve starts to open, the elastomer seal is released and does not rub against the body. That is why the gasket is not pressed until closing, thus avoiding a large part of friction and crushing of the gasket, which helps to extend its useful life.

On the other hand, the flow always tends to close the valve, which is a great advantage when working as a safety valve in emergency situations.
