Q:I was wondering if someone could tell me the manufacturing date on this aircraft engine valve.

Wow Hannah! That's a cool find for sure! It appears to be possibly a valve for a radial aircraft engine as it looks very similar to ones i've seen used in Pratt+Whitney R3350's etc. It looks like it could probably date to the 1940's up thru the 1950's. Look for a Part Number stamped on the valve or on the box. After WW2 there were all kinds of manufacturers making parts for airplanes. Many were gobbled up by competitors, converted to manufacturing other products or went out of business altogether. However, a few did hang on....and I think this may be what has become of Thompson Aircraft today.... Thompson Aerospace, Inc 22431 Antonio Parkway B160-102 Rcho Sta Marg, CA 92688-2804

Q:Butterfly valve structure and working principle

How it works: the disc is driven by the stem, and if it turns 90 degrees, it can be opened and closed once. By changing the deflection angle of the plate, the flow of the medium can be controlled. There are two kinds of butterfly valves commonly used: clip type butterfly valve and flanged butterfly valve.

Q:Why anti condensation of aluminum alloy anti condensation butterfly valve?

Anti condensation butterfly valve multi-level unique progressive contact seat design, the valve plate in close contact in the process of gradually seat, ensure good sealing performance while reducing unnecessary torque, and the butterfly plate of stainless steel and the inner parts, thereby prolonging the service life of the valve seat, has strong rust and corrosion function. Torque reduction enables the drive to be lightweight and miniaturized. Unique stem seal prevents fluid leakage.

Q:How does PLC control butterfly valves?

PLC control butterfly valve, usually control pneumatic butterfly valve or electric butterfly valve.PLC control pneumatic butterfly valve, that is, PLC program control, electric control, gas control, gas control butterfly valve;PLC control electric butterfly valve, that is, PLC program control electric, electric control butterfly valve.Control requirement:All PLC output contacts must be isolated from the intermediate relay and indirectly controlled by an intermediate relay.

Q:Butterfly valve flow direction is single or two-way?

The arrow on the butterfly valve is the medium direction of circulation, generally double eccentric, and the three eccentric butterfly valve has the arrow in this direction.The butterfly valve, the valve direction and fluid flow direction should be consistent, we use the butterfly valve is in accordance with the arrow direction and flow direction of the installation.If the arrow is marked on the valve body, it must be installed in its direction. If it is marked on the handle, it means open. Depending on the internal structure, it is possible to have the installation direction required.

Q:How can one - way sealed butterfly valves and two-way sealed butterfly valves be distinguished?

One way sealing butterfly valve is the front of the butterfly valve. When it closes, it must face the direction of the medium. The medium flows only in one direction, and the arrow on the valve body indicates the direction of the flow direction of the medium. Attention should be paid to the flow direction of the medium during installation. The two-way sealing butterfly valve is that the butterfly plate can face or back the direction of the medium, and the installation needs no attention to the direction of the flow of the medium, and the valve body also has no indication of the direction of the flow direction of the medium. Two way sealing butterfly valve stem force is greater than one-way butterfly valve stem. Design, the same diameter, pressure butterfly valve, two-way sealing butterfly valve stem diameter than one-way sealing butterfly valve stem diameter.

Q:What is the meaning of American Standard butterfly valve B series

American Standard flange connection is divided into A, B series. A series for normal flanges, B series for compact flanges. 24 "to no AB series, flange standards for B16.5, 24" above B16.47.

Q:What are the functions and uses of butterfly valves?

Butterfly valve is fully open to fully closed is usually less than 90 degrees, butterfly and butterfly stroke itself has no self-locking capability, in order to position the disc to install the valve stem on the worm gear.Using worm gear reducer, not only can the butterfly plate have self-locking ability, so that the butterfly board stops at any position, but also can improve the operation performance of the valve.

Q:Ok, so I took my car in for maintenance (Mustang GT convertible 2002) and the mechanic told me the valve gaskets needed to be replaced and when he gave me the estimate, they were two seperate charges for valve gaskets and valve covers, total of about $250.00 not including labor. Is he trying to rip me off cause I'm a girl by the way? Anyways, I didn't get it done cause it needed something else too and I didn't have enough money so I said I would be back in two weeks. So I called the dealership to inquire about the price and I asked the parts guy for a price on valve gaskets and he was like, I don't know what you mean, we have valve cover gaskets but nothing says just valve gaskets? I told him to give me the price anyways, thinking I would ask my brother (who hasn't tried to help me anyways) and it was $60.00 for both (I need two). How can this be if the other guy was charging me $250.00 for different parts? Help!!! Frustrated and confused, I don't know anything about cars :(

here okorder /... usually you can tell when a car needs the gasket to be replaced because it will leak oil where the gasket is at the bottom of the cover i think hes ripping you off because cars usually dont need to have the valve cover replaced, just the gaskets so take it to another mechanic and get another estimate
