Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What does "API 609" mean?
A: API 609 is the American Petroleum Institute standard for butterfly valves, covering design, materials, testing, and pressure-temperature ratings. Our valves comply with both Category A (semi-lug) and Category B (fully lug) configurations.
Q2: Is the Mill Test Report (MTR) included for every valve?
A: Yes, standard Mill Test Reports are provided for each valve, detailing chemical composition, mechanical properties, and pressure test results.
Q3: Can the valve be used in seawater?
A: Absolutely. We recommend materials like aluminum bronze disc, stainless steel body, and EPDM or Viton seat specifically for seawater and brackish water applications.
Q4: What actuation options are available?
A: We offer manual lever, gearbox, pneumatic, and electric actuators. The valve body is designed with ISO 5211 mounting pad for easy automation.
Q5: How do I know which seat material to choose?
A: The choice depends on fluid type and temperature. EPDM suits water and seawater, NBR for oil, Viton for chemicals, and PTFE for high-temperature services. Our technical support can help you select the best option.
Q6: What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: For standard sizes, MOQ is 1 piece for sample orders. Mass production quantities are flexible – please contact us for details.
Q7: Do you provide technical support for installation?
A: Yes, our engineering team offers free technical support via email and video calls. We can also provide detailed installation drawings and manuals.
