Highly versatile valves
Butterfly valves can be used for simple on/off service but also for processes requiring precise throttling. End-of-line installation of a lugged version allows for downstream piping disassembly with the upstream system still under pressure. The extensive size range and material availability make them suitable for a wide range of applications. With simple, direct mounting for actuation, automated process control can be easily achieved.
Butterfly valves are available from 1-1/2” to 16” sizes with PVC, CPVC, PP, GRPP bodies, and PVC, CPVC, ABS, PP, and PVDF disks, ideal for on/off service, but can be used for throttling flow. Thermoplastic butterfly valves are available with over-molded lugs allowing for bidirectional or end-of-line use. Industrial grade butterfly valves feature non-wetted 316SS shafts, integral mounting options, profiled liner for a minimal breakaway torque, and locking handles.
Product Types & Specifications
The FK offers superior strength as well as excellent chemical resistance needed to operate in corrosive environments.
SPECIFICATIONS
- Butterfly valves are available in sizes: 1-1/2″ through 16″ sizes with PP, PVC, CPVC, PVDF, and ABS disk material
- Pressure:150 psi (1-1/2″ to 10″), 120 psi (12″), 100 psi (14”), 85 psi (16”)
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Double self-lubricating seals
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Easyfit lockable handle
- Robust GRPP body design
- Permanent integrated SS lugs are available
- The trapezoidal elastomeric liner provides a bubble-tight seal
- ISO square dimensions for direct actuator mounting
- Handle labeling system
PROducts OVERVIEW
The special trapezoid shape of the liner and a serrated body cavity guarantee a bubble-tight seal while keeping break-away torque at an absolute minimum. Double self-lubricating seals (available in either EPDM or FPM), direct actuator mount capability, and choice of a lever handle or mounted gearbox are just a few more features of this technologically advanced valve.
The body is made of standard glass-filled PP while discs are available in PP, PVC, CPVC, PVDF, and ABS.
It can be found in applications such as:
- Aquarium Piping Systems
- Metals & Mining
- Shipbuilding and Offshore applications
- Water and wastewater treatment
This FK Series version features the world’s first integral lug design. Unlike other plastic butterfly valves, these valves feature stainless steel lugs permanently anchored in the body of the Lug Butterfly Valve.
SPECIFICATIONS
- Available in sizes: 2-1/2″ – 12″
- Pressure: up to 150 psi at 73°F depending on the size
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Double self-lubricating seals
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Easyfit handle
- Robust GRPP body design
- Permanent integrated SS lugs
- The trapezoidal elastomeric liner provides a bubble-tight seal
- ISO square dimensions for direct actuator mounting
- Handle labeling system
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The unique design provides for full bi-directional operation and allows disassembly and assembly of the downstream flange connection without weakening the integrity of the upstream connection to the pressurized line. The same body, disc, and seal material options as the normal FK Series are available for the Lug Butterfly Valve.
It can be found in applications such as:
- Aquarium Piping Systems
- Metals & Mining
- Shipbuilding and Offshore applications
- Water and wastewater treatment
The FE incorporates many of the features and benefits of our industrial FK valve, yet is one of the most competitively priced thermoplastic butterfly valves available today.
