Greater CV Potential & Less Pipe Space
Actuated versions are available with both pneumatic and electric actuation, making them suitable for remote installations, higher torque requirements, and applications demanding precise, reliable operation. Pneumatic actuators offer rapid open/close response and are available in double-acting or spring-return configurations, with direct or solenoid control. Spring-return actuators can be configured to fail closed for critical applications, automatically returning the valve to a safe position in the event of power or air failure, with fail-open configurations also available upon request.
For applications which require abrasion resistance the option of a UHMWPE (Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight-Polyethylene) is available for this particular butterfly valve.
Less space, results in less material, bringing significantly lower costs in the process. As part of Isolation applications, our valves can be fully open or fully closed with quarter turn movement (90 Degrees) of the functioning lever or actuator. When closed, the reliable seal and disc can provide 100% leak tight downstream shutoff and low-pressure loss across the valve when opened through a streamlined, energy saving metallic disc. These types of valves can also be used to regulate flow pressure or temperature through a multi-position lockable lever or 4-20mA 3-15 psi control.
Actuated Butterfly Valves are available in both pneumatic and electric operation and can be beneficial for use in remotely accessed areas, valves that require larger torque figures to operate, timing or synchronisation and reliability. Pneumatically Actuated Butterfly Valves provide the quickest form of operational control for open/close functionality and are available in both double acting and spring return units with either direct/solenoid operation.
