Field Application of Electric resilient seated Wafer Butterfly Valve

The electric resilient seated butterfly valve is actually a kind of electric control valve system. It is a high-performance valve upgraded from the ordinary butterfly valve category. It also uses electrical operation during operation. Therefore, the most obvious advantage of the electric resilient seated butterfly valve is that it is quite simple and easy to control.

In today’s society, various electrified operating systems have replaced old equipment, electrification and intelligence are no longer unfamiliar words to us. To keep up with the rapid development of the valve industry, constant humane upgrades are essential. In the past, companies had to set up manpower specifically for valve operation and management, but now the birth of electric resilient seated butterfly valves allows companies to no longer consume this cost. It has unique structure, flexible operation, labor saving and convenient. If the sealing material is matched with stainless steel and nitrile oil-resistant rubber, the service life can be effectively extended.
In terms of composition, the electric resilient seated wafer butterfly valve is composed of wafer butterfly valve and small electric actuator. Its structure is compact, and it is easy to switch by 90°. Its valve body material is usually cast iron, ductile iron, stainless steel, copper alloy, aluminum alloy. Disc materials are usually: ductile iron, stainless steel, corrosion-resistant steel, titanium steel, copper alloy. The valve seat material is usually nitrile nitrile, ethylene propylene, neoprene, Hypolon, polytetrafluoroethylene, natural rubber, etc. The choice of material makes the valve more sealed and reliable, and it is widely used in water supply and drainage systems such as water plants, power plants, steel plants, papermaking, chemical industries, and catering, as adjustment and cut-off use. While saving manpower, it greatly reduces the damage to working conditions and personnel. For example, in some special toxic or polluting working conditions, the electric resilient seated wafer butterfly valve does not require long-term contact by personnel, but only a light switch. , So the humanized management is a great improvement.
The reason why the electric resilient seated wafer butterfly valve can have such a good development in modern times is due to the increase of valve export products, so the market also puts forward higher requirements for valve standards. Valve quality and sales channels have become key competitive factors. Therefore, while competing for channels, manufacturers pay more attention to product technology research and development, quality, packaging, and delivery period will have higher requirements. In the future, the production process and R&D process of electric resilient seated wafer butterfly valve products will be more closely integrated with environmental protection and energy.

How to replace valve packing for triple eccentric sealing butterfly valve

Although we are not focusing on valve packing during the procurement and use of triple eccentric butterfly valves, in fact packing has a great influence on the service life of the valve. If we find that the upper cavity is leaking during the pressure test, it is likely to be caused by the leakage of the packing. Wrong type of packing, packing leakage will cause internal leakage and greatly affect the service life.

There are many reasons for packing leakage. For example, the packing is the sealing effect of the pressure of the gland in the valve. After operation, the packing will age and become hard, especially the frequently used triple eccentric sealing butterfly valve, the friction between the valve stem and the packing is reduced, and it is easy to leak water and steam. At this time, the valve packing needs to be replaced. In normal times, we also need to regularly replace the valve packing through the investigation. Let’s take a look at how to replace the valve packing.
When replacing the packing for the triple eccentric sealing butterfly valve, for small valves with gland nuts, you can use a wire hook to clean the packing, put the asbestos rope clockwise around the valve stem and re-install the packing surface, and then tighten the gland nut. . Do not use excessive force when installing the nut to prevent tripping or breakage. If it still leaks after replacement, tighten it again until it does not leak. For large valves with flange glands, square or round asbestos ropes braided into strands can be cut into small sections according to the required length and laminated, and the joints of each layer should be staggered by 180°. When tightening the gland, the bolts on both sides should be compressed alternately to prevent the gland from breaking due to uneven force, and the rotation of the valve skewer should be checked to ensure the flexible rotation of the valve stem.
It is important to mention here that many developed countries do not allow the use of asbestos-containing valves. This is because asbestos has slight carcinogens, so triple-eccentric sealing butterfly valves with asbestos plates on the sealing surface are firmly not allowed to be used in drinking water. It can be considered to use full graphite or 314 or tetrafluoroethylene instead.
The triple eccentric sealing butterfly valve is widely applicable and easy to use. It has the advantage that it can be applied to a variety of working conditions by replacing the sealing pair, which is very popular. Need triple eccentric sealing butterfly valve, welcome to consult the brand manufacturer Tanghai Valve, who has rich experience in the production and processing of butterfly valve products, and there are many cases. I believe you will find your favorite products here.

Solution for accidental fall off of the valve plate of rising stem wedge gate valve

In the previous Tanghai valve knowledge, we have mentioned that if the working conditions are too bad or the gate valve purchased is from an unqualified small manufacturer, or for the rising stem wedge gate valve, the valve will suffer corrosion and wear during the opening and closing process. Or improper operation may cause the valve plate

to be disconnected from the valve stem. Once this happens, it will undoubtedly be troublesome for the production pipeline and even cause huge losses. So, if this situation has already happened, how can we deal with it?
Generally speaking, if the valve cannot be opened after it has been closed, it can only be replaced after cutting it out of the piping system. This is mainly for the welding connection. If the gate valve cannot be cut out from the system, another connection process or device shutdown is required. Take the rising stem wedge gate valve as an example, the specific repair methods are as follows:

1. The valve plate falls off but cannot be cut out for processing
Under the condition of ensuring that the medium is sealed, the valve plate can be exposed by changing the assembly methods of the gland, valve stem, packing, etc., and then the valve stem and the valve plate can be restored by conventional methods. This is to ensure that the three seals of the valve can continue to be maintained. After the bonnet is disassembled, the wedge angle of the valve plate is in the friction angle domain, so no matter whether the two ends of the valve plate are under pressure or not, the valve plate will not squeeze out of the valve seat by itself under the self-locking condition.

2. The valve plate falls off, the handwheel can still be turned
(1) In this case, the valve plate can be pushed back to the valve seat to form a seal through the handwheel. Loosen the packing nut but not completely. Loosen the packing first, and do the same for all the nuts on the bolts on the valve cover in turn.
(2) Next, turn the handwheel in the closing direction. The valve stem should be in a state where it will not move anymore. The upper part of the valve cover is separated from the valve body as a whole to ensure that the valve plate and the valve seat are indeed sealed or only A small amount of medium leakage that affects construction treatment. At this time, completely unscrew the nuts on all bolts, remove the upper part of the valve cover and the valve stem, and the top of the valve plate in the valve seat is exposed. Then check the reason and solution of the valve plate falling off.
(3) If it is not for special conditions, welding is generally used to re-establish the connection between the valve stem and the valve plate. However, if it is flammable and explosive oil, gas and other media, it is very unsafe to weld directly in this way. In this case, the end of the valve stem can be taken out and processed into the special form required. During installation, the contact surface of the valve stem and the valve core is treated with a high-strength adhesive repair agent, or directly drilled at the top of the valve plate. Tapping is changed to threaded connection. Special attention is to be paid to the valve stem and bonnet during the repair, which must be installed on a vertical plane to maintain good neutrality, so as to avoid opening difficulties when restarting.
(4) The sealing gasket should be replaced according to the situation to prevent leakage after the sealing surface is put into use, and then part of the packing should be added to the stuffing box as needed, and the packing gland should be properly compressed.

The above method can be used to repair the exposed rod wedge gate valve in a very short time. The repair requires less manpower and short working hours. The cost is mainly for disassembly, welding, bonding or drilling. The construction and material costs can be controlled within 1,000 yuan. . Practice has proved that the above method will open and close normally after repairing the valve, avoiding the loss of production shutdown, and will reduce the direct and invisible property loss of the enterprise.

Requirements of various sealing materials for pneumatic gate valves

This article would like to discuss with you some of the material requirements of pneumatic gate valves, including the

pneumatic gate valve (3)

pneumatic gate valve (3)

material of the valve body, stem, stem bushing, nut, sealing surface and packing of the pneumatic gate valve. Each of them is an important component to ensure the good sealing performance of the valve. The quality of the sealing is the main criterion for evaluating the quality of the valve. Let’s share the standard requirements of various materials for pneumatic valves.
Let’s take a look at the valve body, valve stem, nut and other requirements. The material of the valve body should be mainly ductile iron, and the grade and actual physical and chemical test data of the cast iron should be indicated. The stem material strives to be stainless steel, and large-diameter gate valves should also be stainless steel embedded valve stems. The material of the stem bushing should not be greater in hardness and strength than the stem, and will not form electrochemical corrosion with the stem and valve body under water immersion. The nut material is made of cast lead brass or cast aluminum bronze, and the hardness and strength should be greater than that of the valve stem.
Let’s look at the material of the sealing surface of the pneumatic gate valve. We know that different types of pneumatic valves will require different sealing methods and materials because they are applicable to different working conditions. The sealing material is mainly divided into soft seal and hard seal. The soft seal is mainly an elastic seal based on rubber and plastic, and the hard seal is a rigid metal-to-metal seal. Take the ordinary wedge-type soft-seal gate valve as an example. The manufacturer’s fixing method, grinding method, physical chemistry and sanitary inspection data of the valve plate lining material should be clearly explained. And mark the valve body, the sealing surface material and the valve plate sealing surface material. Their physical and chemical testing data, especially the hygienic requirements, anti-aging performance, and wear resistance of rubber. Take the rubber soft sealing gate valve as an example, usually use nitrile butadiene rubber and EPDM rubber, etc. It is strictly forbidden to mix with reclaimed rubber.
Finally, the valve shaft packing has a great relationship with the sealing performance of the gate valve. Many leaks are caused by improper use of fillers. Since the pneumatic valves in the pipe network are usually opened and closed infrequently, the packing is required to be inactive for several years, the packing does not age, and the sealing effect is maintained for a long time. Therefore, the packing cannot be too tight or too loose. The valve shaft packing should also have a good sealing effect when it is subjected to frequent opening and closing. If the packing needs to be replaced, the pneumatic valve design should consider measures that can be replaced under water pressure. Therefore, the valve shaft packing is not to be replaced or not replaced for more than ten years.

Precautions for the use of triple eccentric metal seated butterfly valve

Triple eccentric hard-sealed butterfly valves are generally metal seated butterfly valves, which have an eccentric metal sealing structure. Sealing forms include metal-to-metal sealing, stainless steel plate and graphite composite plate sealing ring to metal sealing, etc. The driving methods are mainly electric, manual, turbo rod transmission,

D673H-16C-stainless steel pneumatic triple eccentric butterfly valve

D673H-16C-stainless steel pneumatic triple eccentric butterfly valve

pneumatic and so on. The triple eccentric hard-seal butterfly valve is very popular in the market. It maintains the advantages of the centerline butterfly valve and discards the disadvantage of the poor sealing performance of the metal seal. It is a more promising product in the market. Let’s take a look at the problems we need to pay attention to in use:
1. The triple eccentric hard sealing butterfly valve is a multi-layer soft and hard stacked sealing ring, which is also a very significant feature of the triple eccentric hard sealing butterfly valve. The seat sealing ring is composed of multiple layers of stainless steel sheets on both sides of the soft T-shaped sealing ring. When the valve plate is in the normally open state, the medium will form a positive scouring on its sealing surface, and the soft sealing tape in the metal sheet sandwich will directly affect the sealing performance after being scoured.
2. The valve will be restricted by the structural conditions, so the structure is not suitable for valves with a diameter below DN200, because the overall structure of the valve plate will be too thick and the flow resistance will be large.
3. The principle of the valve’s triple eccentric structure. The sealing between the sealing surface of the valve plate and the valve seat is to press the valve plate against the valve seat by the torque of the transmission device. It is a self-sealing property. That is, when the medium is flowing in the forward direction, the higher the medium pressure, the tighter the sealing and squeezing. However, in general, when the flow channel medium flows back, as the medium pressure increases, the unit positive pressure between the valve plate and the valve seat is less than the medium pressure, the seal will begin to leak.
Is there a solution to the inability to achieve two-way sealing? Butterfly valve manufacturers add an adjustment ring between the pressure plate and the valve seat to achieve a very ideal two-way hard seal. The sealing surface of the valve plate and the valve seat of the triple eccentric sealing butterfly valve is an oblique cone structure, and temperature-resistant and corrosion-resistant alloy materials are surfacing welded on the oblique cone surface of the valve plate. A structure in which the spring fixed between the pressure plate of the adjusting ring and the adjusting bolt of the pressure plate are assembled together. This structure effectively compensates for the tolerance zone between the shaft sleeve and the valve body and the elastic deformation of the valve stem under the medium pressure, and solves the sealing problem of the valve in the two-way interchangeable medium conveying process.
When the medium flows backward, the seal between the valve plate and the valve seat depends on the torque of the driving device to press the valve plate against the valve seat. With the increase of the reverse medium pressure, when the unit positive pressure between the valve plate and the valve seat is less than the medium pressure, the deformation energy stored by the spring of the adjusting ring after being loaded compensates for the tight pressure of the sealing surface of the valve plate and the valve seat Play the role of automatic compensation.
The triple eccentric hard seal butterfly valve adopts a soft T-shaped multi-layer stainless steel sheet on both sides to form a sealing ring. It has the dual advantages of metal hard and soft sealing, and has zero leakage sealing performance regardless of low temperature and high temperature. In the future, it may also replace gate valves and ball valves.

Correct installation method of pneumatic gate valve

Good valve products also need correct use and maintenance to ensure a good working condition and service life of the product, and pneumatic gate valves are no exception. The working state of the pneumatic gate valve directly affects the operation of the engineering system. Pneumatic gate valves have been widely used in metallurgy,

pneumatic gate valve (3)

pneumatic gate valve (3)

petrochemical and other fields. What we want to share today is how to properly use and maintain pneumatic gate valves to maintain their stability and reliability advantages in work. The details are as follows:
First of all, in order to ensure the normal operation of the pneumatic gate valve in the pipeline system and the safe operation of the system, we first need to do some work before the installation. For example, before installing a new valve, check whether the markings on the valve conform to the design requirements. At the same time, the basic error limit, full stroke deviation, return difference, dead zone, leakage rate, etc. are debugged. This is a new valve for pneumatic gate valves. If the pneumatic gate valve in the original system has been overhauled, in addition to completing the above work, the stuffing box and connections of the old gate valve should be checked for tightness. From the on-site use point of view, many problems in the operation of the system are often not caused by the quality of the valve itself, but because of the improper installation of the valve. This also includes factors such as the device environment, improper location and orientation of the device, or unclean piping.

Therefore, the following aspects should be paid attention to when installing the pneumatic gate valve:
1. Waterproof and cooling measures should be taken in the open air or high temperature places with strong sunlight. Where there is an earthquake source, stay away from the earthquake source or increase earthquake-proof measures.
2. Pneumatic gate valve can be installed tilted under special circumstances, but if the tilt angle is large or the weight of the valve itself is too large, it must be reinforced and supported.
3. The pipeline for installing the gate valve should not be too high from the ground. If the pipeline height exceeds 2m, a platform should be set up as far as possible to facilitate the operation of the handwheel and maintenance.
4. Before starting the valve for the first time, the pipeline must be cleaned to remove dirt and welding slag. Because if impurities in the pipeline pass through the valve with the medium at high speed, it is easy to cause damage to the sealing surface and cause leakage. After installation, the valve should also be cleaned to prevent impurities from getting stuck in the valve body. Remember to restore the original neutral position after using the handwheel mechanism.
5. The installation position of the pneumatic gate valve must meet the process requirements. In order to facilitate the later maintenance, it is better to add a bypass line to the valve, which is to continue the production during the maintenance process.
6. The electrical part of the pneumatic gate valve should be implemented in accordance with the construction requirements of the relevant electrical equipment. This should be communicated more with the manufacturer, strictly in accordance with the manufacturer’s technical requirements.
7. The reducer of the actuator of the pneumatic gate valve should be lubricated after disassembly and repair. Generally, low-speed motors should not be disassembled, washed and refueled. After the motor is assembled, check whether the valve position conforms to the valve position opening indication.
The above are some precautions before, during, and after installation of electrical gate valves, which have a very important impact on the service life and use effect of the gate valve, and we need to pay attention to it.

How to extend the service life of stainless steel metal seated butterfly valve

In general, we are most worried about the problem of stainless steel metal seated butterfly valves is rust. This is the common concern of the majority of users for metal products. In fact, stainless steel material itself is not easy to rust, but stainless steel materials are also divided into five categories, such as ferritic stainless steel, martensitic stainless steel, austenitic stainless steel, austenitic-ferritic stainless steel and precipitated carbide stainless steel. The

D673H-16C-stainless steel pneumatic triple eccentric butterfly valve

D673H-16C-stainless steel pneumatic triple eccentric butterfly valve

austenitic stainless steel has good corrosion resistance after normal heat treatment and will not rust easily. If the stainless steel butterfly valve rusts in normal use, it is mostly due to the precipitation of carbides along the grain boundary in the material to form a chromium-depleted zone, which causes the stainless steel hard-seal butterfly valve to rust.
Let’s take a look at what specific maintenance methods we should maintain during use in order to effectively avoid corrosion of the stainless steel metal seated butterfly valve and prolong its service life:
1. The stainless steel metal seated butterfly valve should be cleaned frequently during use, and the transmission device should be maintained and lubricated. Frequently troubleshoot faults in order to find faults and clear them in time.
2. The packing should be evenly packed and the cover should be tightened to prevent the medium from leaking from the packing for a long time and rust.
3. Pay attention to the connection method and direction of the valve to prevent leakage and erosion caused by misalignment.
4. The stainless steel metal seated butterfly valve is only used for adjustment, not fully open or fully closed, because the structural characteristics of the butterfly valve are not suitable for truncation, which will cause accelerated wear of the sealing surface.
5. Valves that have not been put into use for a long time should also be checked regularly to clean up dirt in time. Both ends of the butterfly valve channel should be closed to prevent long-term air oxidation. The product should be placed in a ventilated and dry place, not stacked or stored in the open air.
6. Eliminate the dirt on the valve parts before installation, carefully check the pressure of the valve mark to see if the diameter meets the requirements for use, and eliminate the defects caused by the transportation process.
7. The product switch must use the equipped hand wheel or electric or pneumatic device. Do not use external tools to cause damage to the valve. The handwheel butterfly valve is turned clockwise to close, otherwise it is open.
For stainless steel metal seated butterfly valves to be used for a long time, it is important from product selection to post-maintenance. Choosing a trustworthy brand is the first step, and maintenance is the continuation of quality. Of course, good manufacturers will also have more guarantees after sales. If users do not understand maintenance or have any questions or questions, they can directly contact the manufacturer for professional assistance. Tanghai Valve solemnly promises to pay two for each failure within two years. Is your trustworthy butterfly valve manufacturer.

Why is austenitic stainless steel magnetic

In the procurement case of austenitic stainless steel butterfly valves or gate valves, we can often find an interesting phenomenon. Customers carry magnets with them to check whether the material of the product is genuine. I think it is really “stainless steel” if it can’t be absorbed, and it’s faked with “stainless iron” if it sucks. This is really an “unjust case”. Today this article will share the unscientific aspects of this method.

high performance-double eccentric-butterlfy valve-wafer-lug-flanged (5)

high performance-double eccentric-butterlfy valve-wafer-lug-flanged (5)

The main reason for the emergence of the magnet inspection method is the recognition of a characteristic of austenitic stainless steel, that is, everyone must know that austenite is non-magnetic or weakly magnetic, while martensite or ferrite is magnetic. . Stainless steel is classified according to its organizational structure at room temperature: 1. Austenite type: such as 304, 321, 316, 310, etc.; 2. Martensite or ferrite type: such as 430, 420, 410, etc.; however, everyone ignores the change in ferrite content caused by the difference in forging and casting processes. This kind of magnetism, which is caused by chemical composition fluctuations or different processing conditions caused by smelting, cannot be regarded as counterfeit or substandard. Let’s see why?
1. During smelting, if composition segregation or improper heat treatment, a small amount of martensite or ferrite structure will appear in austenitic stainless steel. In this way, the austenitic stainless steel gate valve will have weak magnetism.
2. After austenitic stainless steel is cold-worked, the structure will also be transformed into magnetic martensite. The greater the degree of cold-working deformation, the more martensite transformation and the greater the magnetic properties of the steel.

3. When polishing the product, use an iron wrist to polish it. If it is not cleaned or there are iron filings on the surface, it will show magnetism.
However, the magnetism of austenitic stainless steel caused by the above reasons is not at the same level as that of other stainless steels, such as 430 and carbon steel. That is to say, even if austenitic steel shows a certain degree of weak magnetism, it makes the magnet feel When it comes to suction, it is by no means strong magnetism, and the product itself is still qualified. In other words, if the austenitic stainless steel gate valve is weakly magnetic or non-magnetic at all, it should be judged as 304 or 316 austenitic stainless steel. If the magnetism is the same as that of carbon steel and shows strong magnetism, the product material is not austenitic steel but other materials are used indiscriminately.
If manufacturers want to completely eliminate the magnetic properties of austenitic stainless steel caused by the above reasons, they can restore and stabilize the austenitic structure through high-temperature solution treatment, thereby eliminating the magnetic properties. At the same time, select sand with high silicon content during forging and polishing treatment and then pickling passivation to remove magnetism. At the same time, as a user, when we are purchasing, we also recommend to choose products from reputable manufacturers, not to be greedy for cheap prices and avoid being deceived.

Therefore, it is unscientific to use a magnet to detect whether austenitic stainless steel contains magnetism.

Structure and applicable working conditions of electric butterfly valve

Electric butterfly valve is one of electric valve and electric regulating valve. There are mainly flange type electric butterfly valve and wafer type electric butterfly valve, which are classified according to the connection method of electric butterfly valve. The electric butterfly valve is usually composed of a quarter-stroke electric actuator and a butterfly valve through a mechanical connection, after installation and debugging.

D943H-16C-metal seated stainless steel electric triple offset butterfly valve

D943H-16C-metal seated stainless steel electric triple offset butterfly valve

According to the action mode, electric butterfly valves are classified into on-off type and regulating type. The switch type is to directly switch on the power supply to complete the switching action by switching the positive and negative directions. Regulating type uses AC220V power supply as power and receives 4-20mA signal preset by the industrial automation control system to complete the adjustment action. In various industrial automation production pipeline flow, pressure, temperature control, such as electric power, metallurgy, petrochemical, environmental protection, energy management, fire protection systems, etc., there are electric butterfly valves. Below we are going to take a look at the different working conditions applicable to different types of electric butterfly valves:
1. Wafer type electric butterfly valve, suitable for medium temperature ≤80~120℃, such as food, chemical, petroleum, electric power, textile, paper and other water supply and drainage, gas pipelines, used as flow adjustment and interception medium.
2. The soft-sealed electric butterfly valve has very good sealing performance. It can be made as a sanitary valve to achieve the effect of not polluting the medium.
3. The hard-sealed electric butterfly valve is made of hard alloy or stainless steel, which makes the sealing surface high in strength, hardness and wear resistance. Tanghai’s hard-sealed electric butterfly valve can be opened and closed continuously for more than 10,000 times without damage.
4. Flange electric butterfly valve, tightness, corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and wear resistance have been firmly ensured, and it is suitable for high temperature and high pressure working conditions.
5. The rubber-lined electric butterfly valve is suitable for use in fresh water, sea water, salt, weak alkali, weak acid, natural gas, air, steam, oil, food and other media because of its good sealing performance.
6. The ventilation electric butterfly valve is made of the same material as the valve body and processed into a sealing ring. Its applicable temperature depends on the material selection of the valve body. The nominal pressure is ≤ 0.6MPa. It is usually used in industrial, metallurgical, environmental protection and other pipelines for ventilation and adjustment of medium flow.
There are still many uses for electric butterfly valves. For the selection of electric butterfly valves, you can also listen to the manufacturer’s suggestions.

What to consider when choosing a suitable resilient seated gate valve

The soft-seal /resilient seated gate valve is widely used. It is favored by users because it overcomes the product defects such as poor sealing and rust of ordinary gate valves. The soft sealing gate valve has a unique elastic seat seal to achieve a good sealing effect. The soft sealing gate valve is easy to open and close, reliable in sealing, good elastic

memory and long service life. It can be widely used as a regulating and intercepting device on the pipelines of tap water, sewage, construction, petroleum, chemical industry, food, medicine, textile, electric power, shipbuilding, metallurgy, energy system, etc.
To choose a resilient seated gate valve, you must first select the corresponding product according to the use environment, that is, the difference in the medium. Followed by some other technical parameters such as specifications, models and pressures. The correct selection can ensure the performance characteristics of the soft seal gate valve to the extreme, as well as the good operation of the pipeline, extend the service life of the pipeline, pump, and valve, and achieve the expected use effect of production. There are many types of rubber, but the best and economical ones are nitrile rubber and natural rubber. As an elastic sealing pair, they have high elasticity, high tensile strength, good abrasion resistance and drought resistance. Operating temperature range: about -60℃~80 ℃ Non-corrosive or general corrosive medium, can be water, gas, etc.
Soft seal gate valve, the inner cavity surface of the valve is not lined or covered with various rubbers, suitable for various working temperatures and fluid pipelines. Relatively speaking, as a resilient seated gate valve, rubber gate valves are not as resistant to high temperature and corrosion as fluorine-lined gate valves, which is a disadvantage of rubber seals. Fluorine-lined gate valve, also known as fluoroplastic-lined corrosion-resistant valve, is to place PTFE resin on the inner wall of steel or iron valve pressure-bearing parts or the outer surface of valve inner parts by moulding or inlaying, and use it in The unique performance of anti-corrosive medium is made into various valves.
When choosing a resilient seated gate valve, you must fully consider the main issues of medium, temperature, pressure, caliber, etc., to ensure that the use of the valve conforms to the working conditions and the characteristics of the product itself, and to maintain the service life.
