A PTFE Seat Actuated Butterfly Valve is a butterfly valve fitted with a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) seat and operated by an actuator, either electric or pneumatic. The PTFE seat provides excellent chemical resistance, low friction, and reliable sealing, making it ideal for corrosive or high-purity applications. These valves are commonly used in industries such as chemical processing, food & beverage, and pharmaceuticals where durability and clean operation are essential.
PTFE seats provide excellent chemical resistance and ensure a tight seal, making them ideal for applications where corrosion or leakage prevention is crucial.
Actuation can be manual (by hand), pneumatic, or electric. Manual valves are operated by hand, while pneumatic and electric versions use air or electricity for remote operation.
Yes, some PTFE Seat Actuated Butterfly Valves are designed to handle high-pressure applications, but it's essential to select the right type for your specific needs.
Yes, these valves come in various sizes from 1 1/2" to 12" to accommodate different pipe diameters and flow rates.
PTFE seats are low-maintenance due to their excellent resistance to wear and tear. However, regular inspections and cleaning may be necessary to ensure optimal performance.
PTFE seats can handle a range of temperatures, but it's crucial to select valves specifically designed for high-temperature applications to prevent damage.
Industries such as pharmaceuticals and food processing often require compliance with regulatory standards, and PTFE Seat Actuated Butterfly Valves are chosen for their hygienic properties and chemical resistance.
Yes, Actuation Valve offers sustainable spares and replacement parts for ongoing maintenance schedules.
Yes, many manufacturers offer customisation options for these valves to meet the unique requirements of different applications, including size, actuation type, and material compatibility.
