Water Applications Butterfly Valve – Overview The new Butterfly Valve 565 is the best choice for optimising piping systems built for water and a wide range of other applications. It comes at a significantly lower initial cost, due to its lower weight in terms of storage and transportation. Installation is quick and easy. It is extremely durable, ensuring minimal maintenance and a long life span. The valve comes in the same installation length as metal solutions so exchanging your metal valves for plastic ones will not require any additional work on the pipes or new designs. Thanks to its low weight, a single person can lift and install a valve in just a few minutes. It’s low weight therefore significantly reduces the need for costly transportation and personnel. High-performance thermoplastics protect it from abrasion and corrosion, even under harsh conditions such as water hammers. The results are a reduction of both maintenance costs and production stops. In cooling applications, the plastic solution has a clear advantage in that its condensation is much lower. With its standard interface, the valve can be upgraded with various modules, such as the smart actuator. This allows for automation and digitisation of your systems, making them even more cost-effective and efficient.
