Economical butterfly valves

October 2004 Valves, Actuators & Pump Control

Tyco Valves & Controls has introduced a series of new, high quality, reliable and economical butterfly valves for general-purpose industrial applications.

The cost-effective PremiSeal range is designed for use across a range of industrial applications, providing a wafer thin disc for excellent flow characteristics and head loss. Available in a wafer or lugged configuration, PremiSeal provides bubble-tight shut-off control in both directions, and is also suitable for end-of-line duties up to 1,6 MPa.

Available with either a parallel flat or square shaft drive, PremiSeal is ideally suited for use with the range of Tyco PremiAir pneumatic actuators or TVC electric actuators but is also available in a manually operated design. The standard valve configuration consists of a ductile iron body and a stainless disc. The valve seat is available in either EPDM or nitrile rubber.

The PremiSeal is rated for use with pressures to 1,6 MPa, temperatures from -40 to +120°C, and is available in sizes from 20 to 300 mm. All PremiSeal valves conform to PED 97/23/EC and ATEX directive 94/9/EC and are manufactured in an ISO-9001:2000 quality audited facility.
