Triple Eccentric Marine Butterfly Valve With Metal Hard Seal for DN50 to DN1200 Pipelines
Product Spotlights
As a leading manufacturer with ISO 9001 certification, Shanghai Zhibang Valve Manufacture Co., Ltd. specializes in providing high-performance flow control solutions. Our triple eccentric marine butterfly valve with a metal hard seal is engineered for the most demanding applications, offering exceptional durability and zero leakage in critical pipeline systems from DN50 to DN1200. This valve represents our commitment to quality, combining advanced design with robust materials to ensure long-term reliability and minimal maintenance for our global clientele across diverse markets.
This valve is designed to overcome the limitations of traditional butterfly valves. The triple eccentric geometry ensures that the disc seal contacts the seat only at the final moment of closure, minimizing wear and friction. This, combined with a metal-to-metal hard seal, makes it ideal for high-temperature, high-pressure, and corrosive media applications where resilient seals would fail.
Key Features and Advantages:
- Triple Eccentric Design: The unique offset of the shaft axis eliminates sliding friction between the disc and seat during operation, dramatically extending service life and ensuring bubble-tight shut-off even after thousands of cycles.
- Metal Hard Seal: The seat and disc sealing surfaces are hard-faced with alloys like Stellite or Inconel, providing excellent resistance to erosion, corrosion, and high temperatures up to 600°C (1112°F), far surpassing the capabilities of soft-seated valves.
- Bidirectional Sealing: Engineered to provide reliable sealing against pressure from both flow directions, enhancing system safety and flexibility in complex piping layouts.
- Low Torque Operation: The frictionless design requires significantly lower operating torque compared to double-offset or concentric valves, allowing for the use of smaller, more cost-effective actuators.
- Wide Application Range: Perfect for marine systems (ballast, bilge, fuel oil), power generation, petrochemical, LNG, and other industries handling steam, gases, hydrocarbons, and abrasive slurries.
- Fire-Safe Design: The metal seal construction inherently meets fire-safe requirements, as it maintains sealing integrity even if soft secondary seals are damaged by fire.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
-
Q: What makes a "triple eccentric" design different from a standard butterfly valve?
A: A triple eccentric valve has three distinct offsets: the shaft is behind the seat plane, offset from the pipeline centerline, and the seat cone angle is tilted. This geometry ensures the disc lifts away from the seat during opening, eliminating rubbing contact and wear, which is common in standard designs. -
Q: Can this valve be used for both on/off and throttling service?
A: While primarily designed for bubble-tight shut-off (on/off), the triple eccentric design provides a relatively linear flow characteristic, making it suitable for moderate throttling applications, especially when paired with a precision actuator. -
Q: What are the main advantages of a metal hard seal over a soft (elastomeric) seal?
A: Metal hard seals offer superior resistance to high temperatures, corrosion, erosion, and abrasion. They do not degrade over time like rubber or PTFE and provide fire-safe performance, making them essential for critical services where soft seals would fail prematurely. -
Q: Is the valve suitable for cryogenic services?
A: Yes. With appropriate material selection (e.g., stainless steel for the body and disc), extended stems, and special low-temperature packing, this valve design can be configured for cryogenic applications down to -196°C. -
Q: What types of actuators are compatible with this valve?
A: The valve can be fitted with manual levers, worm gear operators, electric actuators, or pneumatic actuators (double-acting or spring-return). The low operating torque of the triple eccentric design allows for a more compact and economical actuator selection. -
Q: Do you offer customized materials or coatings for specific corrosive media?
A: Absolutely. We can provide valves in a wide range of corrosion-resistant alloys like Hastelloy, Monel, or Titanium. Internal and external coatings, such as epoxy or nickel plating, are also available upon request to meet specific environmental or media challenges. -
Q: What standards do your valves comply with?
A> Our valves are designed and manufactured in accordance with international standards such as API 609, ISO 5752, and others. Specific compliance certifications can be provided based on your project requirements. -
Q: What is the typical delivery lead time for an order?
A: Lead time varies based on size, material, and quantity. Standard configurations typically have shorter lead times. We provide accurate delivery schedules upon receipt of your detailed inquiry to ensure timely project integration.
