Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key benefits of lug type ductile iron butterfly valves?

Lug type ductile iron butterfly valves combine the benefits of full lug pattern (dead-end service capability, in-line maintenance) with the superior strength of ductile iron (ASTM A395). They offer higher pressure ratings (PN 16/25), better impact resistance, and longer service life compared to cast iron lug valves. Ideal for demanding water, wastewater, and industrial applications.

When should I choose lug type over wafer type butterfly valves?

Choose lug type when you need dead-end service capability (valve can isolate a section without downstream flange), when periodic maintenance is required without draining the pipeline, or when the downstream flange cannot be installed during initial assembly. Wafer type is preferred for between-flange installation where dead-end service is not required and cost is a consideration.

What applications are best suited for ductile iron lug butterfly valves?

Ductile iron lug butterfly valves excel in water distribution networks, wastewater treatment plants, HVAC systems, building services, fire protection systems, and industrial process lines where higher pressures and dead-end capability are required. The ductile iron body handles thermal cycling and pressure surges better than cast iron.

What is the difference between PN 16 and PN 25 ratings for ductile iron valves?

PN (Pressure Nominal) indicates maximum allowable pressure at reference temperature. PN 16 valves are rated for up to 16 bar (232 psi) and PN 25 for up to 25 bar (363 psi). Selection depends on system design pressure with appropriate safety margin. PN 25 valves have thicker body walls and reinforced components to withstand higher pressures.

How does double offset design benefit ductile iron butterfly valves?

Double offset (double eccentric) design in ductile iron valves provides superior sealing performance by having the disc seat contact point offset from the stem centerline. This reduces seat wear during operation, provides consistent bubble-tight sealing at high pressures, lowers operating torque, and extends service life. Essential for PN 16/25 rated applications.
