A soft seal butterfly valve, also known as a resilient seat butterfly valve, is a type of butterfly valve that uses a soft, elastomeric seat to create a tight seal between the disc and the valve body. This type of valve is commonly used in applications where a bubble-tight shut-off is required, such as in water treatment, HVAC, and industrial processes.
Soft seal butterfly valves are versatile flow control devices used in various industries for their reliable sealing performance, bubble-tight shut-off, and suitability for a wide range of applications. Their resilient seat material ensures tight sealing integrity, making them a preferred choice for critical flow control applications.
The butterfly valve body is a sturdy, rigid piece of metal that covers the internal parts. The seat covers the inner edge of the valve's walls and is the primary sealing agent. When the butterfly valve is closed, the disc lodges against the seat and the butterfly valve closes.
Wafer valves are a great choice for many applications because they are lightweight, compact, and are easy to install. They don't need expensive exotic materials, and they are also much more cost-efficient than other butterfly valves. However, the body and valve linings are often prone to wear and tear, which makes maintenance much more difficult. In order to properly maintain a wafer butterfly valve, you must shut down the entire pipeline.
When the butterfly valve is closed, the wafer aligns with the direction of flow. When the wrench is rotated back to its original position, the valve opens. As the commodity passes through the valve, the wafer is pushed into position. This prevents the commodity from getting stuck in the valve. The valve can be used in many different ways.
This classification is based on how the valve is connected to the pipes.
This is the most economical and lightweight. This design aims to prevent bi-directional differential pressures and backflows. There are two pipe flanges that sandwich the valve. They seal and connect the valve to the pipe system through bolts. For stronger sealing, there are O-rings and gaskets placed on both sides of the valve.
The lug type butterfly valve has lugs placed outside and around the valve body. These are often used in dead-end services or in applications that only require low pressure. The lugs are threaded. Bolts, which match that of the pipes, connect the valve to the pipe.
The butt-welded butterfly valve has the connections welded directly to the pipe. This type of valve is primarily used for high-pressure applications.
This type is characterized by having a flange face on both sides. This is where the valves connect. This design is typical among large-sized valves.
