A butterfly valve is from a family of valves called quarter-turn valves. In operation, the valve is fully open or closed when the disc is rotated a quarter turn. There are different kinds of butterfly valves, adapted for different pressures and different usage.
Based on driving modes, butterfly valve is classified into electric butterfly valve, pneumatic butterfly valve, hydraulic butterfly valve, worm geared butterfly valve and manual butterfly valve.

Based on types of sealing, butterfly valve is classified into forced sealing butterfly valve, pressurized sealing butterfly valve and automatic sealing butterfly valve.
Based on working pressure, butterfly valve is classified into vacuum butterfly valve, low pressure butterfly valve, medium pressure butterfly valve, high pressure butterfly valve and ultra-high pressure butterfly valve.
Based on connection, butterfly valve is classified into wafer butterfly valve, flanged butterfly valve, lug type butterfly valve and welded butterfly valve.
