In the event of a fault, manually operated valves can be an invaluable backup since they'll work even if the rest of the system is down. As they’re simpler in design, they're usually more robust than their higher-tech equivalents. Also, a manual valve can often be quicker to respond to user input than an automatic component with a rigid process to follow when carrying out instructions.
