What is dn50 valve?

What is dn50 valve?

The nominal diameter is 50 mm (2 inch) and has a wafer type flange. The Cast iron (GGG40) housing, stainless steel disc and FKM seal make it durable and allows for a media temperature between 5°C and 180°C.

How do I know what size butterfly valve I have?

How to Determine Butterfly Valve Dimensions

  1. Length A – Length of butterfly valve body + stem endpoint.
  2. Length B – Length from centerline x-axis to valve end.
  3. Length C – thickness of the valve body.
  4. Length F – length of the key.
  5. Length H – diameter of stem.
  6. Length J – Hole size.
  7. K – thread size.
  8. L – number of holes.

What is AWWA butterfly valve?

DeZURIK AWWA Butterfly Valves meet the requirements of AWWA C504 and C516 standards. They are used for shutoff on clean water and gases. Offset disc design, corrosion resistant shaft, stainless steel disc edge, and self-compensating shaft seals are features on all DeZURIK AWWA valves.

What is the function of a butterfly valve?

A butterfly valve regulates flow by starting, slowing, or stopping media. The disk opens and closes with a low-torque rotation of 90 degrees and works for any compatible application. Because they cost less and are lighter weight, the butterfly valve is often preferred over other types of valves.

What is dn6 pipe size?

Where do NPS or DN stand for?

Diameter Nominal DN (mm) Nominal Pipe Size NPS (inches) Outside diameter (OD) inches (mm)
6 0.405 in (10.29 mm)
8 ¼ 0.540 in (13.72 mm)
10 0.675 in (17.15 mm)
15 ½ 0.840 in (21.34 mm)

How do I calculate valve size?

The basic valve sizing equation Q = Cv√∆P can be used to calculate pressure drop, flow rate, or the flow coefficient. For solutions other than water, a correction for a difference in specific gravity of the solution is necessary. This revised formula would be: Q = Cv[√∆P/Sg] with Sg = specific gravity of the liquid.

How do you measure valve size?

Another crucial, but easy to measure dimension is the valve’s overall length. By simply measuring from the tip of the valvestem to the face of the valve with a set of calipers, you can get the valve’s overall length.

What is AWWA c504 standard?

Full Description. This standard covers rubber-seated butterfly valves, 3 in. (75 mm) through 72 in. (1,800 mm) in diameter, with various body and end types, for fresh and reclaimed water having a pH range from 6 to 12 and a temperature range from 33° to 125°F (0.6° to 52°C).

Where are butterfly valves used?

Butterfly valves are used for applications that require handling large volume capacities. It can be used for flow control and regulation and on/off service. Recent developments have permitted this type of valve to throttle more accurately and perform well in high-temperature and high-pressure applications.

Do butterfly valves restrict flow?

Butterfly valves are used where space is limited. Unlike gate valves, butterfly valves can be used for throttling or regulating flow as well as in the full open and fully closed position.

What kind of liner does Audco butterfly valve use?

AUDCO Butterfly Valves is a Wafer type Valve with an integrally-molded elastomer body liner. Designed to outperform loose liners, AUDCO Butterfly Valves elastomer liner is molded directly in the body bore and vulcanized in-situ, making it last the entire life of the valve.

What makes a butterfly valve self draining and cavity free?

SELF DRAINING AND CAVITY FREE In the AUDCO Butterfly Valve, the rubber liner incorporates flats at the top and the bottom where the shaft passes through, providing a wide sealing area. This ensures the line fluid does not enter the stem area and get contaminated.

How is the stem of a butterfly valve sealed?

STEM SEALING. In AUDCO Butterfly Valves the body liner incorporates flats at the top and the bottom where the shaft passes through, providing a wide sealing area. The secondary sealing is by two ‘O’ rings that are molded at the top and bottom of the seat, which get compressed around the shaft.

What kind of rubber is a butterfly valve made of?

AUDCO CLEANSEAL is a wafer type butterfly valve specifically designed for hygienic services. The body seat is formulated from food grade EPDM or white Acrylo nitrile rubber, both synthetic elasto- mers which do not impart any toxic substance, color, odor or flavor to the line media.
