Extension rod butterfly valve
The Extension Rod Butterfly Valve is a specially designed butterfly valve equipped with an extended stem or extension rod, allowing convenient operation in locations where the valve installation position is deep, underground, insulated, or difficult to access.
This valve provides reliable flow isolation and control while enabling remote operation from a safe and accessible location. It is widely used in underground pipelines, HVAC systems, water treatment facilities, fire protection systems, industrial pipelines, and applications requiring valve operation away from the main pipeline.
With a robust structure, flexible installation design, and excellent sealing performance, the extension rod butterfly valve offers easy maintenance, improved operational safety, and long-term reliable service.
