Renowned for its compact design and bubble-tight shut-off, this valve is highly valued for its exceptional regulating capabilities across various applications.
Its robust construction ensures long-term durability and reliable performance, making it a staple for simple and complex fluid management systems. The valve’s ability to operate with minimal maintenance and its streamlined design for space efficiency makes it an ideal choice for cost-effective operations.
Operational Excellence
This butterfly valve features a gear-operated mechanism that ensures precise control over the flow of fluids. The gear system is designed for easy manual operation and is particularly suitable for larger valve sizes where direct lever operation would be too strenuous.
Specifications and Suitability
The valve’s body is crafted from ductile iron, coated with a blue epoxy (FBE) to withstand harsh conditions and resist corrosion. Its lugged-type setup allows for easy installation in various piping systems, with threaded metric drilled bolt holes that accommodate different setups. The design conforms to the AS 2129 Table E Australian standard, meeting rigorous safety and quality guidelines.
It can handle pressures up to 16 BAR (1600 KPA). The EPDM seat inside the valve ensures a tight and effective seal, enhancing the valve’s leak-proof properties. The stem of the valve is made from pinless square drive 420 stainless steel, which is exceptionally resistant to corrosion and capable of handling high flow rates without compromising the integrity of the flow path. The precision-machined CF8M stainless steel disc perfectly aligns with the seat profile, optimising the flow and minimising wear on the liner.
Sizes available range from 50mm (2”) to 250mm (10”), covering a broad spectrum of industrial needs.
This Butterfly Valve – Wafer – Ductile Iron – Gear Operated – 316 SS Disk EPDM Seat becomes a crucial investment in the efficiency and reliability of your industrial applications.
