1. General information
1.1.
The butterfly valve is double flanged, double eccentric and fully welded construction.
Main applications this type is used are: as turbine-inlet valve, and pipe-burst valve for shut-off
service in water systems with temperature up to 80C. It is possible to use this type of valve for
higher temperatures of medium, but in that case suitable main sealing material has to be installed
(sandwich type (laminated) metal seal or VITON or PTFE), as well as to use for different mediums (air,
steam etc..).
The housing and valve disc as standard are made of carbon steel (S235 or S355), but other
grades are possible, as well as stainless steel. A special formed rubber profile gasket on the valve disc
ensures the leak-proof closing. The seal set in the disk is made of EPDM rubber profile seal
(optionally NBR, FPM, VITON, PU, or metal seal for high temperature). The shafts are non-corrodible,
two piece design, with special materials available on request.
The valve opens by applying hydraulic pressure to cylinder and closes by mass of a
counterweight. Between its open and closed positions the valve disc swivels by 90. The valve
operation is as a shut-off (open-close) valve. Regulating and throttling functions are not allowed and
can cause damage to sealing ring as well as seat ring on body. Open and closed positions are pre-set
in the factory.

Housing
Carbon steel plate, bended (optionally stainless steel or other material), with the flange
dimensions according to EN 1092-1(2) form B (nominal pressure according to technical documents),
face to face according to EN 558-1 Series 14 (on request special face to face).
2.2.
Valve disc
Disc is made of carbon steel (optionally stainless steel or other material) and it is eccentric. Main
sealing gasket (rubber profile) is fixed on the valve disc by means of a clamping ring (normally
stainless steel), which is assembled on the disc with socket head bolts. These bolts admit a limited
correction of the opening- closing friction and tightness.
2.3.
Shaft bearing
Shafts are located with clearance fit in the disc and are secured by pins (keys when requested).
The bearing bushings are made of bronze with PTFE (or graphite) running surface; they are selflubricated and maintenance free. The bearings are located in the collar of the valve housing (see the
appendix). Optionally grease points can be added if requested.

3. Actuator
The hydraulic cylinder serves as operating element. When the pressure rises in the cylinder, the
piston rod lifts the lever and this opens the valve. At the piston rod side, the returning inlet pipe is
closed with a filter screw, avoiding the entrance of impurities. The closure is helped by the medium
(eccentricity) and it is ensured by the counterweight. The hydraulic connection is available and
optionally throttle or flow regulating valve is provided - protecting the valve from slamming, in case
of hydraulic pipe damage.
Attention!
The hydraulic cylinders stroke is mechanically limited. The adjustment is
made at factory on cylinder and it is strictly forbidden to modify without
consultation and permission of the supplier!
The maximum allowed hydraulic oil pressure for the system is 120 bars!
Closing time adjustment not present for this project.
Two-step closing not present for this project.
Opening and closing time depends on the hydraulic power unit and hydraulic system. Operation
time can be influenced by using different diameter of hydraulic pipeline / hydraulic tube also the
length of pipeline and distance from power unit, capacity of the power unit.
Operating characteristics (as standard and optimal operation of turbine inlet valve, switches and
sensors connected properly to aggregates control unit).:
- The butterfly valve can be opened by means of oil pressure in the hydraulic.
- In the case of power failure, the butterfly valve will close automatically.
- The butterfly valve is provided with two position switches (on request additional switches
possible to install, e.g. intermediate position), which indicate (from bottom to top)
- closed position
- open position
4. Material quality
Used materials are according to customers requests. Please see details in parts list and material
certificates.

5. Dimensions
See the data sheets and drawings.
6. Maintenance, inspections
The butterfly valve is basically maintenance free as it is not provided with lubrication points,
unless specifically requested. The valve and hydraulic cylinder must be moved in a full operating
cycle (up down) every two month of a year. The annual complete inspection has to be performed
with an examination and routine trial operation. No leakage or corrosion is acceptable at the valve
parts or hydraulic drive.

9. Replacement of seals
The seals do not need maintenance; in case of leakage they must be replaced.
9.1.
Nut-ring is placed at inner part of the valve where shaft enters shaft tube, and does not require
dismantling of any parts and may be replaced without special tools.

Please take special attention when standing close to valve! Every person in proximity of valve
has to be careful and should be aware that moving parts may suddenly start to move without any
warning!!!
Please take care of burning accidents. The valve and the components can be depending on
the operating condition and the purpose heating.
In case of every reparation it must be make ensured that the valve and the hydraulic are also
depressurised.
Unpack valve and equipment then check condition of all parts. Do not install valve if you recognized
any damaged or missing parts!
Make sure that pipeline is clear and free from impurities and metal chips. Those can damage valve
sealing and other parts.
Before installation check if there is enough space for valve, operation device and to have free
access all around the valve.
Keep in priority the correct flow direction.
Clean the valve sealing surfaces.
Use correct sealing material for flanges according to applicable medium and temperature.
Tighten connecting bolts evenly and crosswise.

operation, parts such as hydraulic and pipeline itself MUST NOT be pressurized and all
actuation must be disabled, so emergency closing or/and opening functions cannot
be started.
Valve should not be installed in area which is permanently accessible by
personnel OR area without clearly displayed warnings for dangerous moving
objects!!!
Any repairing has to be performed by skilled personnel.
Never loosen bolts and screws in pressurized pipeline, the same applies for any existing hydraulic or
actuation devices.
In case of disc repairing, it has to be supported and fixed to avoid any possible movements.
Before any maintenance read this operation and maintenance manual.

Cleanliness is the cardinal rule when fitting valves. If the pipe ends require machining, chips and
other foreign matter must be carefully removed. The pipe ends must be properly aligned so as to
prevent the valve being subjected to unnecessary strain.
Bricklaying or painting should not be carried out in the vicinity of installed valves until stuffing
boxes, spindles and valve position indicators (if fitted) have been properly protected against soiling.
Valves are despatched from our works with clean internal parts. This is a quality feature that can
only be maintained if care is taken during installation and subsequent operation to prevent the
ingress of foreign matter into the valve and hence damage to seats and other areas.
Flanged Valves
The sealing faces of flanged valves must be clean and in good condition. Before bolting-down,
flanges must be correctly aligned. When bolting-down, all flange boreholes must be used at all times.
For initial fitting, threads can be smeared with graphite or molybdenumdisulphide to stop seizure do not use oils or greases. Never use damaged parts such as bolts, nuts or washers. Make sure that
materials are suitable and correct for the job.
Tighten bolts evenly and in cross-sequence using the correct tools to the correct torques. In
case of any doubt please ask the supplier.
