Sanitary Butterfly Valve Complete Buying Guide

Table of Contents

The butterfly valve is used to control or shut off fluid by the valve disc. A Sanitary butterfly valve is different from an industrial butterfly valve, it normally uses high purity stainless steel 304 or 316L and the inside surface is well polished, not retaining the fluid. Usually used in food processing and beverage, dairy, pharmaceutical industries.

Material

DONJOY Sanitary butterfly valve uses stainless steel as the body material and disc, with SS304, SS316L.

Valve body and disc are integral forged processing and machining by CNC machines, stronger and better than casting.

Pressure

10 bar, 150 psi, 1 Mpa, PN 10

Surface roughness

Sanitary application requires better surface roughness, inside mirror polish treatment, roughness RA 0.8 μm default. (Mep Ra 0.6 μm, Eep Ra 0.4 μm ). Outside matt RA 1.2μm default.

Handles

Pull handle

It has two, three, four holes, three holes is the default and most commonly use.

The hole for the pull handle means the position, 3 holes means open, middle open, close, 3 positions.

Butterfly Valve Actuators

Actuators to realise automatic operation:

  • NC operated: single-acting, normally closed (fail closed)—air to open, spring to close
  • NO operated: single-acting, normally open (fail open)—air to close, spring to open
  • AA operated: double-acting, air to open, air to close

Sanitary Butterfly Valve for Powder Processing

Normally butterfly valve for liquid flow, if used for powder processing, we will recommend use powder butterfly valve or make a special smaller disc with less pressure, if regular butterfly valve use for powder, the gasket will be easily worn out.
