Additional information on butterfly valves from the Bosch Rexroth South Africa Group of Companies
Stainless Steel Butterfly Valves: Working temperature from 0° to 150° C and a working pressure of PN 6.
Lug Type Butterfly Valves: The shaft comes in 2 pieces which increases ease of disc maintenance and allows a high kV due to a central section of the disk being thinner than a valve with a single shaft.
Wafer Type Butterfly Valves: The valve disc circumference has a lapped surface, which provides better tightness and less wear of the liner. Lower friction reduces torque requirements.
Metal-Metal Type Butterfly Valves: Constructed with high-quality materials, like nickel-plated steel, spheroidal cast iron and aluminium paint.
PVC Butterfly Valves: Ideal for use with double acting actuators and, on the standard version, the body is constructed from reinforced polypropylene fibreglass, PVC-C butterfly and EPDM seal.
