Key Features & Technical Advantages:
- API 609 Compliance: Manufactured according to API 609 "Butterfly Valves: Double Flanged, Lug- and Wafer-Type" standards, ensuring design integrity, material quality, and pressure-temperature ratings for industrial service.
- 24V DC Electric Actuator: Provides a safe, low-voltage control option suitable for hazardous areas. Features include fail-safe modes (optional), position feedback (4-20mA or potentiometer), and manual override for operational flexibility.
- Sanitary Tri-Clamp Connection: The clamp-type end connection ensures a secure, leak-proof seal while allowing for rapid assembly and disassembly without special tools, meeting 3-A sanitary standards.
- Hygienic Design: The valve body and disc are polished to a fine surface finish (typically Ra ≤ 0.8 µm) to prevent bacterial growth and facilitate clean-in-place (CIP) and steam-in-place (SIP) procedures.
- Wide Size & Pressure Range: Covers common pipeline sizes from DN50 (2") to DN300 (12") with a pressure rating of Class 150 (PN16/20), suitable for a broad spectrum of flow control applications.
- Material Options: The valve body is typically constructed from stainless steel SS304 or SS316 for corrosion resistance. Seat materials like EPDM, FKM (Viton), or PTFE are available to match specific media and temperature requirements.
- Precise Flow Control: The electric actuator enables accurate modulation (for modulating type) or reliable on/off control, improving process efficiency and repeatability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
-
Q: What is the main advantage of a 24V DC actuator over other voltages?
A: A 24V DC power supply is commonly considered a safe low voltage, reducing risks in potentially hazardous or wet environments. It is also widely available and compatible with standard industrial control panels and backup battery systems, offering good operational safety and flexibility. -
Q: Can this valve be used for both on/off and flow modulation control?
A: Yes. The valve can be supplied with either a simple on/off electric actuator or a modulating (proportional) actuator. The modulating type receives a control signal (e.g., 4-20mA) to position the valve disc at any angle, allowing for precise flow rate control. -
Q: Is the sanitary tri-clamp connection compatible with my existing piping?
A: The sanitary tri-clamp connection conforms to the standard Tri-Clover fitting dimensions. It is designed to connect seamlessly with other tri-clamp end pipes, fittings, and equipment. Please verify your pipe's clamp size (e.g., 2", 3") and facing finish to ensure a proper match. -
Q: What seat material should I choose for my application?
A: Seat selection depends on the fluid media, temperature, and cleaning procedures. EPDM is versatile for hot water and mild chemicals; FKM (Viton) offers excellent resistance to oils, fuels, and high temperatures; PTFE is inert and suitable for aggressive chemicals and high purity applications. We can advise based on your process details. -
Q: Does the valve support Clean-in-Place (CIP) and Steam-in-Place (SIP) procedures?
A: Absolutely. The valve's hygienic design, including polished internal surfaces and compatible seal materials (like EPDM or FKM for SIP), is suitable for CIP and SIP. The actuator typically has a protection rating of IP65 or higher, safeguarding it during washdowns. -
Q: What is the delivery lead time for a standard size like DN100?
A: For standard configurations (e.g., SS304 body, EPDM seat), we generally maintain stock or offer short production cycles. Lead times can vary based on order quantity and customization. Please contact our sales team with your specific requirements for an accurate delivery schedule. -
Q: Are spare parts like seals or gaskets readily available?
A: Yes. As the manufacturer, we provide full support for spare parts. Common wear parts like seat seals and clamp gaskets are kept in stock to ensure quick maintenance and minimize your equipment downtime. -
Q: Can you provide valves with different pressure ratings, like Class 300?
A: This specific product line is designed for Class 150 pressure. However, as a manufacturer, we can engineer valves for higher pressure ratings upon request. Please share your pressure and temperature requirements for a customized solution.
