What are the differences between electric ball valves and electric butterfly valves

1. Different structure: The main body of the electric ball valve is composed of a sphere and a valve seat. The sphere can rotate 90 degrees during the valve opening and closing process, thereby achieving the function of opening or closing the valve; The main body of the electric butterfly valve is composed of a butterfly plate and a valve seat. The butterfly plate can rotate 90 degrees during the valve opening and closing process, thereby achieving the function of opening or closing the valve.
2. Different application scenarios: Electric ball valves are suitable for high viscosity liquids and high-temperature and high-pressure media that require good sealing, such as chemical, petroleum, natural gas and other industries; Electric butterfly valves are suitable for some highly corrosive media, such as chemical, food, beverage and other industries.
3. Different installation methods: Electric ball valves generally use flange connections, while electric butterfly valves generally use flange or threaded connections.
4. Price difference: Due to the complex manufacturing process of electric ball valves compared to electric butterfly valves, the price of electric ball valves is generally higher than that of electric butterfly valves.
