Butterfly Valves

OVERVIEW:  Butterfly valves are quarter-turn valves that use a circular disc to rotate through 90º to control flow. The disc remains in the fluid path when open, but there is relatively little pressure drop. An elastomer lining seat is used to obtain tight closure in all but the High Performance Butterfly Valves, which have a longer lasting seal. The HPBVs have other advantages as well that lead to long life.

These valves can be used to throttle flow, with the best sensitive results when open between about 15º and 70º. They are controlled with either a muliple-position handle, a gear operator, or an actuator. Electric and pneumatic actuators for all our butterfly valves are provided by Stayflow.

The common body types are lug style and wafer style, and flanged ends are used in some large diameter designs. The economic and short wafer body is clamped between two pipeline flanges. If the downstream side of the butterfly valve acts also as a point of disconnection while the upstram side is under pressure, the lug style must be used. The lugs are threaded on each side to receive bolts from the adjacent flanges. 

                                                                                       Butterfly Valve Choices

  • BASELINE SERIES LINED IRON BUTTERFLY VALVE

    The Baseline Series are quality elastomer lined iron lug or wafer body butterfly valves. The Baseline IW wafer body design is compact, and mates to 150# flanges, and the lug body design allows for dead end service. Options include EPDM and Buna-N seats, along with Bronze, Nickel Plated DI, or 316 stainless steel discs. 2" to 48" diameters.
  • BASELINE PLUS SERIES BUTTERFLY VALVE

    The Baseline Plus Series elastomer lined butterfly valves have stainless steel or other corrosion resistant bodies, making it suitable for service where an iron body is inappropriate. All valves have four drilled and tapped lugs for lighter weight and lower cost than full lug bodies, but still allowing dead end service. Standard bodies are corrosion resistant stainless steel but are also available in Duplex, Alloy 20, aluminum, and carbon steel. 2" to 12" standard diameters.
  • HP SERIES HIGH PERFORMANCE BUTTERFLY VALVE

    The HP Series High Performance Butterfly Valves eliminates seat wear and seat leakage. It uses a double off-set eccentric disc with a seat ring, and other features for a superior valve. Lug bodies are used for dead end service, wafer bodies for easy installation and compact designs. Steam, fire-safe, and metal seats available. Comes with carbon steel or stainless steel  bodies, and pressure classes of 150# and 300# that are kept in stock, with 600# and 900# also available. 2" to 24" diameters stocked, with up to 120" available.
  • HP PLUS SERIES HIGH PERFORM BUTTERFLY VALVE

    The HP Plus Series High Performance Butterfly Valves specialize in a wide selection of special alloy bodies, including Titanium, Hastelloy, Inconel, Duplex, Super Duplex, and others. It eliminates seat wear and seat leakage like our HP Series, and uses a double or triple offset eccentric disc with a seat ring, and other features for a superior valve. Lug, Wafer, and Flanges styles are available. Comes in pressure classes of 150# and 300#, and from 2" to 110"" diameters.
