Electric Sanitary Butterfly Valve

Jan 28, 2026 Leave a message

Electric sanitary butterfly valves are industrial control devices primarily used for flow control of media in clean environments such as the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. This product features a quick-installation design and is equipped with a standard electropolishing process to ensure a smooth surface free from sanitary contamination risks. Its compact structure and rapid opening and closing, combined with sealing materials such as silicone rubber/fluororubber, can meet operating conditions from -20℃ to 180℃, making it widely applicable for flow control scenarios involving various media such as air, water, and steam.

Electric Sanitary Butterfly Valve Structural Features

  • Sanitary Material System: All fluid-contact components, including the valve body, disc, and stem, are made of food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304, 304L, 316, 316L). The surfaces undergo standard electropolishing to ensure a smooth, dead-angle-free finish, meeting international hygiene standards such as FDA and cGMP.
  • Dead-Angle-Free Design: The internal flow channels feature a streamlined, integrated design with a small clearance between the disc and valve body, eliminating media accumulation areas and preventing potential contamination.
  • Quick Assembly/Disassembly: The valve is designed for quick assembly and disassembly, facilitating rapid opening and maintenance and minimizing downtime.
  • Electric Actuator: Utilizes an angular-stroke electric actuator. It can control valve opening and closing with a 220V voltage input or be connected to a control module, allowing for precise control via a 4-20mA or 1-5V DC signal.

 

Electric Sanitary Butterfly Valve Applications

  • Food Processing: Main pipe of automated filling line in beverage factories (304 stainless steel, DN100, PN1.6MPa, DC24V), quick-connect connection for easy CIP cleaning, electric actuator receives PLC signals to control the main pipe's on/off state, suitable for high-flow juice delivery;
  • Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Outlet of sterile pharmaceutical liquid storage tanks in pharmaceutical factories (316L stainless steel, DN80, PN1.6MPa, DC24V), 3A certification ensures sterility, electric actuator remotely controls liquid delivery, avoiding human contact contamination, suitable for sterile workshops;
  • Bio-fermentation: Automated feed main pipe of fermentation tanks (316L stainless steel, DN125, PN1.6MPa, AC220V), dead-angle-free flow channel prevents culture medium residue, electric actuator adjusts flow according to fermentation rhythm, suitable for continuous fermentation production;
  • Drinking Water Treatment: Automated effluent pipeline of large-scale water purification plants (304 stainless steel...). Stainless steel, DN150, PN1.0MPa, DC24V), flange connection for high flow rates, electric actuator linked to water quality monitoring system, automatically starts water supply after standards are met;
  • Dairy products: Automated main pipe for milk sterilization line (304 stainless steel, DN65, PN1.6MPa, DC24V), silicone rubber seal withstands 80℃ sterilization temperature, electric actuator precisely controls flow rate, suitable for continuous sterilization production of dairy products.

 

Electric Sanitary Butterfly Valve Selection Reference

When selecting this valve, the following factors should be considered:

  • Media Characteristics: Select the appropriate valve body material and sealing type based on the type of medium (water, gas, oil, steam, corrosive fluids, etc.), temperature, pressure, and corrosivity.
  • Operating Requirements: Determine the working pressure and temperature range, and select the matching valve pressure rating and sealing type.
  • Control Requirements: Based on whether the requirement is for on/off or regulating operation, select the appropriate type of electric actuator and ensure that its torque, protection rating, and other parameters meet the requirements.
  • Hygiene Standards: Confirm that the valve complies with relevant hygiene standards (such as ISO 15848-1:2015).
