Key Features

Compact & Lightweight Design
Short face-to-face length and reduced weight minimize installation space and structural load, especially in large-diameter pipeline systems.
 

Low Torque, Efficient Operation
Optimized disc and seat design reduce operating torque, enabling easy manual or actuator-driven operation.
 

Fast Quarter-Turn Control
90-degree rotation enables quick open/close action, suitable for systems requiring rapid shut-off or frequent operation.

 

 

Product Types

Wafer Type Butterfly Valve
Compact design installed between flanges, suitable for general water systems and space-limited applications.

FAQ

 

Q: What is the primary operational advantage of choosing a Lug Type butterfly valve over a Wafer Type?

A: Lug type butterfly valves feature threaded metal inserts surrounding the bolt holes, allowing them to be bolted directly to one flange without disturbing the opposite side. This mechanical structure enables end-of-line service and dead-end piping maintenance safely while the upstream system remains pressurized.

Q: How does the two-piece stem design improve the flow performance of your butterfly valves?

A: By utilizing an engineered split-stem or two-piece shaft design rather than a full-length single bar through the center, the cross-sectional profiling of the disc is minimized. This directly expands the net flow capacity (Cv value) of the valve and significantly reduces fluid turbulence across the seat.

Q: Are your fire protection butterfly valves equipped with internal supervisory tamper switches?

A: Yes. Our fire protection butterfly valves can be ordered with factory-configured, built-in dual supervisory tamper switches. These electrical switches detect manual adjustment or unauthorized closure of the valve, instantly transmitting an alarm signal to the centralized building fire control panel in strict compliance with life-safety regulations.

Q: Can we request Mill Test Reports (MTR) and coating thickness inspection logs for municipal submittals?

A: Absolutely. Driven by our material traceability and ISO 9001 quality parameters, we supply complete technical documentation upon request. This includes chemical composition analysis reports for the Ductile Iron QT450-10 bodies, hydrostatic shell/seat test reports, and dry film thickness (DFT) logs for the FBE coatings
