Product Features & Technical Specifications
- Compliance with API 609: Valves are designed and tested per API 609 standard, ensuring dimensional integrity and leak-tight performance for both wafer and lug types.
- Versatile Material Options: Body materials include ductile iron, WCB, stainless steel (CF8/CF8M); seat options such as EPDM, NBR, PTFE, and Viton accommodate various media and temperature ranges.
- Zero Leakage Design: Resilient seat provides bubble-tight shut-off (tested to ISO 5208 Rate A) while maintaining low torque for easy operation.
- Multiple Actuation Choices: Lever, gearbox, pneumatic actuator, or electric actuator – all configurable to match your automation needs.
- Compact & Lightweight: Wafer-style design reduces weight and installation space, while lug version allows dead-end service and easy maintenance.
- Corrosion Resistance: Available with epoxy coating, nylon coating, or stainless steel trim for harsh environments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the difference between wafer and lug butterfly valves in API 609?
A: Wafer style is sandwiched between flanges and used for end-of-line service only with a downstream flange. Lug style has threaded inserts that allow dead-end service and easier maintenance without draining the entire line.
Q2: Can you supply valves with pneumatic or electric actuators?
A: Yes, we offer complete actuated valve packages. Actuator options include double-acting or spring-return pneumatic, and 24V/220V electric actuators with feedback or positioner as required.
Q3: Are your valves certified for drinking water applications?
A: Our EPDM and NBR seat materials are suitable for potable water. Specific certifications (e.g., WRAS, NSF) can be provided upon request depending on the material and coating.
Q4: What is the lead time for standard sizes?
A: For DN50-DN300 sizes, typical lead time is 15-25 working days. Larger sizes may require 30-40 days. Rush orders are negotiable.
Q5: How do I select the correct valve seat for high-temperature service?
A: For temperatures above 120°C, PTFE or Viton seats are recommended. For up to 200°C, use reinforced PTFE with stainless steel disc. Our technical support team can assist with a proper selection.
Q6: Do you provide sample testing before bulk order?
A: Yes, samples are available and can be customized with your specifications. Sample cost is negotiable and will be deducted from bulk order value.
Q7: What is the warranty period for your butterfly valves?
A: We offer a standard 18-month warranty from shipment date, covering manufacturing defects. Extended warranty options are available upon request.
Q8: Can you produce valves with non-standard face-to-face dimensions?
A: Yes, we can manufacture according to customer drawings or special requirements. Please provide specifications for quotation.
