Introduction of Double Eccentric Butterfly Valve
Compared to other valve types, double eccentric butterfly valves offer clear advantages in cost and space efficiency, with a broader size range. They provide faster operation, less restriction, and minimal wear between the disc and seat sealing surface, ensuring a longer service life and reduced total cost of ownership. The two offset design allows for lower torque and extended cycling life, making it ideal for frequent operation. Bosseal's high-performance butterfly valves have passed a million-cycle test, ensuring durability.
Main Features
Offset Design
1st Offset
The shaft centerline is positioned behind the disc centerline, reducing contact between the disc and seat before full closure, allowing continuous engagement of the seating surface.
2nd Offset
The shaft centerline is offset from the valve and pipe centerline. This design allows the disc seal to quickly disengage from the seat upon opening, significantly reducing friction and wear on the sealing surfaces.
Compact Design
With shorter face to face and light design, it’s very space saving for piping design compared to other valve types.
