High Performance Butterfly Valve

The ultimate in high performance butterfly valves. The double offset design eliminates seat wear due to the action of the disc during closing. Stops incorporated in the valve body ensure precise closing.

The valve is available as wafer or tapped lug in three different designs, soft seat, fire safe and metal to metal.

The IVEX valve has excellent throttling characteristics with good low flow control capability. This feature makes the IVEX valve ideal for modulating duties.

An adjustable gland ensures zero leakage.

The fire safe version IVEX-F has been tested and certified as per the requirements of API 607 standard by Lloyds Register of Shipping.

KEY FEATURES

Double offset disc design with a spherical profile seat eliminates seat wear and ensures perfect sealing every time.

Availability of wafer lugged body with through drilled or threaded holes.

Available in 3 distinctly different seat version viz. PTFE seat, Fire Safe seat and Metal to Metal seated.

Self- lubricated drive end and non-drive end bearings for IVEX T and IVEX-F models and galling free metal bearing for IVEX-M versions.

Stuffing box type gland sealing to enable field adjustment of shaft sealing.

Gland packing standardised on graphoil rings (non-asbestos) to offer widest operating temperature range coupled with excellent media resistance.

Metal seat standardised on Inconel 625 material to offer maximum temperature resistance and minimum seat deformation.

Option of seat material for soft seated version in virgin PTFE or filled PTFE.

Seat removal without disconnecting of shaft and disc.

Split ring type thrust pad provided for the drive end shaft prevents axial movement of the disc as well as ensures the required anti-static feature for the valve.
