Stainless Steel Flanged Butterfly Valve

Product Features and Applications

Structural Features

Stainless Steel Valve Body

The valve body, disc, and stem are made of stainless steel materials (such as 304, 316, 316L), providing excellent corrosion resistance and capable of withstanding various corrosive media. This makes them suitable for harsh operating conditions.

Flanged Connection

The flanged connection ensures the valve’s reliability and safety under medium to high-pressure conditions. The valve is secured between pipes with flange bolts, providing excellent sealing performance and reducing the risk of leakage

Sealing Structure

Depending on the operating conditions, the butterfly valve can be designed with either soft sealing (such as EPDM or PTFE) or hard sealing (such as metal sealing). Soft sealing is suitable for low-pressure and low-temperature applications, offering zero leakage performance, while hard sealing is designed for high-temperature and high-pressure environments, capable of withstanding harsh conditions.

Bidirectional Sealing

Some stainless steel flanged butterfly valves are designed with bidirectional sealing, ensuring excellent sealing performance regardless of the flow direction of the media, which enhances application flexibility.

Multiple Actuation Options

The valve can be configured with manual, pneumatic, or electric actuation options based on application requirements, making it suitable for use in systems with varying levels of automation.

Performance Features

Outstanding Corrosion Resistance

Stainless steel materials enable the valve to be used in various corrosive media, making it especially suitable for industries such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and food processing, where handling acidic, alkaline, or saline media is required.

Excellent Sealing Performance

The soft sealing and hard sealing designs ensure the valve’s sealing performance under various conditions. Soft sealing achieves zero leakage, while hard sealing can withstand high temperatures and pressures.

Simple Operation

The valve features a compact structure and simple operation, making it suitable for conditions requiring frequent opening and closing, particularly in highly automated piping systems.

Easy Maintenance

The valve is designed for easy disassembly and maintenance. Regular inspection and replacement of seals can extend its service life and reduce system downtime.

Wide Application Range

The stainless steel flanged butterfly valve is suitable for various media, including water, air, steam, oils, and chemical solvents. It provides stable performance under a wide range of complex operating conditions.

Application Fields

Petroleum and Chemical Industries

Used for transporting and controlling corrosive chemicals, oils, natural gas, and other media, it is suited for harsh environmental conditions.

Food and Pharmaceutical Industries

The stainless steel material meets sanitary standards and is widely used in the food processing and pharmaceutical industries, ensuring the purity of fluid media.

Used for flow control in water treatment systems, it is suitable for media such as clean water, wastewater, and seawater.

Pulp and Paper Industry and Metallurgy

Used for controlling and isolating media such as slurry, air, and gases in the pulp and paper industry and metallurgy.

Power and Energy

Suitable for regulating and controlling media such as steam, cooling water, and gas in the power and energy industry.

Installation and Maintenance

Secure Installation

The flanged connection ensures a tight fit between the valve and the pipeline. During installation, the pipeline flanges must be aligned and secured with bolts to ensure sealing performance.

Simple Maintenance

The valve features a well-designed structure that allows for easy disassembly. During routine maintenance, seals and other key components can be easily inspected and replaced.

Regular Inspection

Especially in corrosive media or high-temperature, high-pressure conditions, it is recommended to regularly inspect the valve’s seals and stem lubrication to ensure long-term reliable operation.
