Flanged Foot Valve
The connection method of foot valve is divided into threaded foot valve and flanged foot valve. Flange foot valves are connected to the pipeline through a flange and are mainly composed of a valve body, a valve flap and a strainer. The valve body is a tubular structure, usually installed in the bottom of the pipeline or container, the upper part is an open hole, used for fluid import and export. The flapper is a disc-shaped part that can be lifted and lowered, usually made of rubber or alloy material. As fluid enters the pipe or vessel, the pressure of the fluid increases, pushing the valve open and allowing the fluid to pass.
Overview
Flange connection features:
Flanged connections use bolts and nuts to tighten the two flanges, allowing the connection to be easily assembled and disassembled.
Flanged connections are able to withstand high pressure and tension, and are suitable for piping and equipment at high pressures and temperatures.
With a sealing gasket between the two flanges, fluid leakage can be effectively prevented, ensuring the safe operation of pipelines and equipment.
The simple structure of flange connection makes the installation process relatively easy, and only a few tools and less force are needed to complete the installation or disassembly.
