Why does the actuator of wastewater valves matter for the installation of the valve?

When wastewater valves (knife-gate valves or penstocks) are installed in plants, the actuator (handwheel, electric actuator etc.) is usually not mounted directly to the valve but arranged above the valve and perpendicular to it.

Why is it important to comply with the minimum flow velocity of disk check valves?

When disk check valves are used, the minimum flow velocity is frequently not reached

Why are butterfly valves unsuitable for control tasks?

During the closing stroke of the valve disk, the cross-section between the valve disk and the body is equally reduced
