Electric flange butterfly valve with bypass valve
YCD942X electric flange butterfly valve with bypass valve
YCD942X is a large-diameter electric flange butterfly valve with a bypass structure. The current page has a diameter of DN50-DN2000 and pressure configurations of PN16, Class150, and JIS10K. The material field includes WCB and stainless steel options.
The main function of the bypass valve
When the pressure difference on both sides of the main valve is large, the bypass can be opened according to the system operating procedure to gradually approach the balance of upstream and downstream pressure, and then the main valve can be operated to reduce the load during the opening stage of the main valve. The bypass size and operation sequence should be determined according to the specific system design.
Bypass cannot replace the calculation of actuator torque
Even if a bypass is configured, the main valve actuator still needs to verify the output torque based on the butterfly plate, seal, maximum pressure difference, and safety factor.
Multi standard configuration
PN16, Class150, and JIS10K belong to different flange and pressure standard systems. When ordering, it should be clear which set of standards is actually used.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can a smaller actuator be used with a bypass valve?
It cannot be directly determined in this way, and the maximum operating torque of the main valve still needs to be verified.
Should the bypass valve be opened first or the main valve be opened first?
When used for pressure balance, the bypass valve is generally operated first according to the system design, followed by the main valve, and finally the project operating procedures shall prevail.
Can PN16, Class150, and 10K flanges be directly interchangeable?
No, the corresponding standards and dimensions should be checked separately.
