About PFA Lined Butterfly Valve
This precisely shaped PFA Lined Butterfly Valve is suitable for medium temperature and medium pressure based job. Developed from ductile iron or cast iron, this valve uses water type connector. It comprises of NBR or EPDM seal, aluminium or cast iron or carbon steel made hand wheel. PFA Lined Butterfly Valve is used as indispensable part of sewage disposal, water transferring and fire fighting pipelines. This type of valve can be used under -40 degree C to 225 degree C temperature condition. Long working life, low maintenance design, user friendly mechanism, high strength and optimum durability are its key aspects.
Exceptional Chemical ResistancePFA lining in these butterfly valves provides outstanding protection against aggressive corrosive chemicals, significantly extending the life and reliability of the valve. The lining ensures that even under challenging conditions, the valve maintains consistent performance and reduces maintenance frequency.
Versatile Application RangeSuited for port sizes from 50mm to 300mm, this valve accommodates diverse flow requirements. Its compatibility with wafer connections and circular design makes installation straightforward, whether retrofitting or embedding in new systems handling chemicals or corrosive fluids.
Manual Control for Precise OperationEquipped with either a hand lever or gear-operated mechanism, the valve allows precise manual regulation of flow. This direct operation method is ideal for situations where rapid and accurate response is essential, without dependence on electrical or pneumatic actuation.
FAQs of PFA Lined Butterfly Valve:
Q: How is the PFA Lined Butterfly Valve installed in systems handling corrosive liquids?
