PMW Cast Iron Butterfly Valve PN10 Gear Operated

What is a Cast Iron Butterfly Valve? Cast iron butterfly valves are quarter-turn valves that are popular for on-off or modulating services. They are lightweight, have a small installation footprint, lower cost, quick operation, and are available with large orifice sizes. The “butterfly” is a disk connected to a rod. When the valve opens, the disk rotates to allow fluid to pass through. It closes when the rod rotates the disc by a quarter turn to a position perpendicular to the flow direction. Wafer-style Cast Iron Butterfly Valve The most cost-effective version, a wafer-style butterfly valve sandwiches between two pipe flanges. Long bolts that cross the entire valve body connect the pipe flanges. This connection type is suitable for sealing against bi-directional differential pressures and preventing backflow in systems designed for universal flow. Some versions of this valve have flange holes outside the valve body. Gaskets, O-rings, and flat valve faces on both sides of the valve combine together to accomplish efficient sealing.

The handle enables the valve to be locked into an open, partially open, or closed position. Extended spindle butterfly valves have long stems allowing remote operation of the valve when it is underground or within a pit. Gear: These utilize a gearbox to increase torque at the expense of decreased speed of opening/closing. The gear operated butterfly valve is designed for slightly larger butterfly valves and is also self-locking (cannot be back-driven), and can be equipped with position indicators.
