Wafer type butterfly valve

A wafer type butterfly valve is easy to installed but it cannot be used as an isolation valve. The wafer style butterfly valve is designed to maintain a seal against bi-directional pressure differential to prevent any backflow in systems designed for unidirectional flow. Lug type valve as the name suggests has lugs that are used to mount the valve to lugs that are attached the flanges on then ends of sections of pipe so that each length of pipe can be removed and replaced independently.

The specific installation steps of the wafer butterfly valve are as follows: 1. Place the wafer - type butterfly valve between the pre-installed two-piece butterfly valve flanges. To make your selection easier, NIBCO offers specification and submittal assistance.

You also get the assurance of the NIBCO warranty, along with superior customer service expertise. The valve is held in place and sealed with gasket by the tension of suds. These are considered low cost butter fly valves. Metals Valve’s wafer type centerline butterfly valves are used in on-off block applications, with a simple disk in line with the center of the valve body. Generally, wafer type centerline butterfly valves are made from cast iron or another inexpensive metal and are lined with rubber or a polymer.

When to use a butterfly valve or ball valve? Metals Valve ’s wafer type centerline butterfly valves are used in on-off block applications, with a simple disk in line with the center of the valve body. Has bolt holes to connect with pipe flanges.

What is a lug butterfly valve?

It is the most common type of industrial pipe valve. A butterfly valve is a shut-off valve that isolates or regulates the flow of a fluid. Our butterfly valves including with wafer type butterfly valves and Lug type butterfly valves in cast iron bodies and stainless steel disc. Our broad range of products includes valves, actuators and automation technology.

We are able to offer customized solutions for almost every industrial application. Due to our own production line of actuators and automation technology, the valves can always be equipped with the optimal fitting actuator. When open, the disc is edge-on to the flow and the fluid passes around it, offering limited resistance.

Equipped with standard On-Off or modulating control quarter-turn electric actuator. A universally applicable wafer type valve manufactured acc. A wide range of standard materials offers the use in various applications.

All dimensions are in mm unless noted otherwise. About of these are valves, are firefighting equipment, and are hydraulic parts. A wide variety of wafer type butterfly valve options are available to you, such as normal temperature, medium temperature. Genebre is a leading company and world reference in fluid control and high quality taps. We control all of the creation processes, responding to the specific needs of each market: from the inicial concept and design of the product to the production and commercialization.
