- Shaft: Monel K500 – This high-strength, corrosion-resistant nickel-copper alloy provides superior performance in harsh marine conditions.
- Seat: EPDM – The ethylene propylene diene monomer seat offers excellent resistance to heat, water, and steam, ensuring a tight seal and preventing leaks.
-
Design and Operation:
- Type: Butterfly Valve – The butterfly valve design offers a compact and lightweight solution that is easy to install and maintain.
- Operation: Gear Box Hand Wheel Operated – This manual operation provides precise control, making it suitable for various marine applications where automated systems may not be practical.
- Configuration: Lugged – The lugged design allows for easy installation and removal between flanges, ensuring secure and stable mounting.
-
Specifications:
- Size: DN250 – Suitable for applications requiring a nominal diameter of 250mm.
- Pressure Rating: PN10 – Rated for 10 bar pressure, ensuring reliable performance under typical marine pressure conditions.
- Rotation: 90° – The valve offers a 90-degree rotation for quick and efficient opening and closing.
Suited for Marine Applications:
The TTV B148 C9500 Aluminium Bronze Butterfly Valve is specifically designed to thrive in the challenging marine environment. The aluminium bronze construction provides excellent resistance to seawater corrosion, a common issue in marine applications, while the Monel K500 shaft ensures high strength and durability under extreme conditions.
The EPDM seat is particularly suited for marine environments, offering robust performance and resistance to water and steam, which are prevalent in marine settings. The manual gear box hand wheel operation allows for reliable and precise control, essential for critical marine operations where automated systems might fail due to power issues or other constraints.
Furthermore, the lugged design facilitates straightforward installation and maintenance, a significant advantage in the often tight and complex spaces of marine vessels. The PN10 pressure rating ensures that the valve can handle the pressures typically encountered in marine systems, providing peace of mind and operational reliability.
In summary, the Aluminium Bronze Butterfly Valve combines superior materials, robust design, and reliable operation to deliver a valve perfectly suited for the demanding conditions of marine applications.
