PN16 Butterfly Valve
- With solid structure and reliable performance
- PN16 butterfly valve emerges as a versatile and robust solution.
- Features compact design, low operating torque and quick operating versatility
Product Description
The PN16 butterfly valve belongs to a class of valves designed to control the flow of fluids in pipelines. The “PN16” designation refers to the pressure rating of the valve, indicating its maximum allowable operating pressure. Typically constructed from materials such as ductile iron, stainless steel, or carbon steel, PN16 butterfly valves feature a disc that rotates about a central axis perpendicular to the flow direction. This rotation controls the flow rate by either allowing or obstructing the passage of fluid through the valve.
Components
The primary components of a PN16 butterfly valve include the valve body, disc, stem, seat, and actuator mechanism. The disc, often made of metal or synthetic material, is mounted on a stem within the pn16 butterfly valve dimensions body. When the valve is open, the disc rotates parallel to the flow direction, allowing fluid to pass through. Conversely, when the valve is closed, the disc rotates perpendicular to the flow, creating a seal against the seat to prevent leakage.

Advantages
1. Pressure Rating: The PN16 designation of butterfly valves signifies their pressure rating, indicating that these valves are designed to operate effectively at pressures up to 16 bar.
2. Lightweight and Compact Design: PN16 butterfly valves feature a lightweight and compact design compared to traditional gate or globe valves, offering ease of installation, reduced space requirements, and simplified maintenance.
3. Resilient Sealing Materials: PN16 butterfly valves are equipped with resilient seat materials such as EPDM, NBR, or PTFE, which provide excellent sealing properties and chemical resistance.
4. Low Operating Torque: PN16 butterfly valves typically require low operating torque, thanks to their streamlined design and efficient disc rotation mechanism.
5. Manual or Actuated Operation: PN16 butterfly valves are available in manual or actuated configurations, offering flexibility in operation and control.
Butterfly valves include wafer butterfly valve, lug butterfly valve, double flange eccentric butterfly valve and other related butterfly valve products.
