This enables Krishna Industries to serve as a complete flow control solution provider across Indian industrial markets.

Why Lever Operated Butterfly Valves Are Preferred in Indian Industries

Lever operated butterfly valves are manually actuated quarter-turn valves where a handle lever is used to rotate the disc 90 degrees for full open or full close operation. The lever mechanism allows quick shutoff and easy throttling in smaller to medium line sizes.

For Indian industries where operational simplicity, cost efficiency, and ease of maintenance are critical, lever operated butterfly valves are highly preferred. They are lightweight, require minimal installation space, and offer low pressure drop compared to conventional valve designs.
