/h through a valve at a preset
opening stage and under a head loss of 1 bar.
The butterfly valve is not the best product for regula-
ting Nevertheless, the Sylax FM-CNPP butterfly valve
can be used to regulate by an opening stage between
30° and 90°.
A regulation in the opening stage lower than 30° is
not advisable because of over speed, cavitation effect,
which could damage prematurely the valve.
The maximum flow velocity of the fluid through the valve must not exceed :
- 3 m/s for liquid fluids. Between 3 and 5m/s, the use of the Sylax FM-CNPP butterfly valve is possible, but the phenomena of
cavitation, noise, vibration and water hammering increase..
