Instructions for the safe use of resilient seated flanged butterfly valves

The resilient seated flanged butterfly valve has the characteristics of small opening torque, flexibility and convenience, labor-saving and energy-saving. The sealing form of the soft seal has reliable performance and can achieve no leakage. Therefore, the use of flange soft-seal butterfly valve is very wide, and it has its presence in all major pipeline systems, and its safe use has gradually attracted attention.

First of all, the safety of the valve piping system must first consider the main valve. A soft-seal flanged butterfly valve is required to be used as a safety master valve. The function is to cut off and connect the entire pipeline system. In normal production, it is also in the normally open state. The main valve is generally not used to adjust the flow rate and should be installed at the inlet of the main pipeline.
Secondly, a main valve is also needed at the inlet of the branch pipeline. The butterfly valve here is mainly used to control the branch pipeline safely. In addition to the cut-off function, the main valve of the branch pipeline also has the function of adjusting the flow rate. Adjust the flow rate to meet the needs of the branch pipeline flow size, and strictly follow a certain ratio, which is adjusted and controlled by the main valve of each branch pipeline. There should be two flanged soft-seal butterfly valves or safety valves that are often switched on or off or used for adjustment. One of the butterfly valves is spare and is normally open and not in use. A spare valve can be used if there is a problem with the working butterfly valve, so that it will not affect the production. After repairing, a butterfly valve is still reserved as a spare.
On liquid and gas pipelines, a safety drain valve is required at the lowest point or at a suitable place. The function is to empty the medium blocked in the pipeline to avoid air resistance in the pipeline. Because the gas in the pipe will reduce the pipe section, increase the transmission resistance, reduce the flow rate, and affect production. For some special liquids that will dissolve gas after a certain period of time and cannot be discharged during operation, it is also necessary to drain the butterfly valve.
The closing of the resilient seated flanged butterfly valve also has safety requirements. After the valve is closed tightly, some media will also change as the temperature changes, and the thermal expansion of the valve components will increase the pressure between the butterfly valve and the valve seat. When it is turned on again, it will inevitably bring difficulties. Therefore, the torque required to open the valve will be greater than the torque required to close the valve. The resilient seated flanged butterfly valve needs to overcome the increase of static friction due to the increase of the pressure between the sealing surfaces due to the temperature change. Because of the friction between the sealing surfaces, when the valve is closed and opened again, the required torque is much larger than the torque required to close the valve.

Common leakage problems and remedies of resilient-seated gate valves

The resilient seated flange gate valve is an updated product of the gate valve, because the gate plate is wrapped by elastic materials such as rubber or PTFE, or the valve seat is made of elastic material. In short, one of the valve seat and the valve plate can be regarded as soft seal. The combination of soft and hard sealing can achieve zero leakage. And because the connection form is flange connection, hence the name. It is widely used in fluid pipelines such as

tap water, sewage, construction, petroleum, chemical industry, food, medicine, textile, electric power, shipbuilding, metallurgy, energy system, etc. The soft sealing flange gate valve is characterized by low fluid resistance, wide applicable pressure and temperature range, unlimited medium flow direction, and good sealing performance.
In procurement, the leakage inspection of resilient seated flange gate valves is always the first concern.  understand the product’s tightness, we first understand which components of the gate valve are prone to leaks, so that we can achieve good prevention and remedial measures. details as follows:
1. Leakage occurs at the junction of the gate valve and the gate valve
If this happens, first check whether the connecting bolts between the gate valves are tightened. This is to ensure that the inner gasket ring is fully integrated with the flange sealing groove surface. If a leak has occurred here, you can check the bolts and nuts in order and tighten them to the compression seal ring. Finally, check the size and accuracy of the gasket ring and the flange sealing groove surface, whether there is a bit of corrosion, sand holes, sand holes or impurities, and corresponding repair welding, repair or cleaning according to the situation.
2. The valve cover is leaking
Valve cover leakage is usually caused by the leakage of packing seals. If there is such a problem with the seal, you can check the selection first. If the selection of the seal and the sealing groove do not match, it is easy to leak. This problem can be solved by replacing the sealing ring or repairing the sealing groove. The appearance of burrs, fracturing, twisting, etc. of the seals may also cause leakage and need to be replaced in time. Finally, check whether the sealing surface of each sealing groove is rough or have other defects. If there are defects, remove the defects or update the damaged parts. Special attention should be paid to the packing installation situation and the matching surface of the packing seal. To check the installation of these packings, it is found that the upper and lower packings are installed upside down and need to be removed and reinstalled according to the correct method.
3. Leakage on the surface of the valve body cavity
In this case, the valve body may have sand holes, sand holes and other casting defects during the casting process, which are difficult to be found before the pressure test. But once pressure is applied, leakage will occur in these places. This kind of problem is to be repaired, repaired or updated.
4. Leakage at the valve seat gate
This is also a relatively common leakage phenomenon. There are two cases of leakage of the sealing surface and leakage of the root of the sealing ring. We can start by checking the accuracy of the sealing surface. It is too rough and needs to be removed and reground. Secondly, check whether the sealing surface has defects such as pitting, indentation, blisters, cracks, etc., and pay attention to the replacement of the gate or valve seat. Sometimes some valve seats with compression springs will leak due to the weakening of the compression spring’s elasticity. In addition, attention should be paid to whether the T-shaped connection between the valve plate and the valve stem is too loose. If there is a slope, it should be adjusted to its better size immediately.
5. Leakage caused by the entry of debris
If foreign matter such as welding slag, iron filings, impurities enter the valve body, it will also cause the valve plate to close to the expected depth and cause leakage. In this case, the valve body must be removed and cleaned.
6. Leakage caused by improper installation of valve seat
Special tools should be used to install the valve seat. If the valve seat is not installed in place, leakage will occur.

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.

Wafer type dual plate check valve: metal seated vs resilient seated

Wafer dual plate check valve is used for pure pipelines and industrial, environmental protection, water treatment, high-rise building water supply and drainage pipelines, to prevent the reverse flow of the medium. The check valve adopts a clamp type, the butterfly plate is two semicircles, and it adopts a spring for forced reset. The sealing surface can be built-up welding wear-resistant material or rubber lining, with a wide range of use and reliable sealing.

The check valve opening and closing parts are opened or closed automatically by the flow and force of the medium to prevent the medium from flowing back. The valve is called the check valve. Check valves belong to the category of automatic valves, which are mainly used in pipelines where the medium flows in one direction, and only allow the medium to flow in one direction to prevent accidents.

According to the structure of the check valve, it can be divided into three types: lift check valve, swing check valve and butterfly check valve. Lift check valves can be divided into two types: vertical and horizontal. Swing check valves are divided into three types: single valve, double valve and multi valve. The butterfly check valve is a straight-through type. The above-mentioned check valves can be divided into three types in connection form: threaded connection, flange connection and welding. A check valve is a valve that can automatically prevent fluid from flowing back. The disc of the check valve is opened under the action of fluid pressure, and the fluid flows from the inlet side to the outlet side. When the pressure on the inlet side is lower than that on the outlet side, the valve flap is
