Newway Triple Offset Metal Hard-Seal Flanged Butterfly Valve: Reliable Control for Harsh Industrial Conditions
I. Product Technical Overview
The Newway triple offset metal hard-seal flanged butterfly valve features a triple-eccentric geometry (offsets between the stem axis, disc center, sealing surface centerline, and disc rotation axis). Equipped with a worm gear actuator, it uses ductile iron/WCB body, stainless steel disc with Stellite hard-seal coating, and stainless steel stem. Designed for high-temperature (≤425℃), high-pressure (≤6.4MPa), corrosive/abrasive media (e.g., petrochemical steam, power plant desulfurization slurry, metallurgical gas, municipal heating), it meets strict shut-off and regulation needs in industrial piping systems.
II. Core Advantages
(A) Triple-Eccentric Structure: Zero Friction & Self-Tightening Seal
Three Offsets:
Radial offset (stem vs. disc center).
Axial offset (stem vs. sealing surface centerline).
Angular offset (sealing surface vs. disc rotation axis).
The disc disengages from the seat within 5° of opening (near-zero friction) and self-tightens during closing, achieving ANSI/FCI 70-2 Class VI bubble-tight leakage (metal-to-metal seal).
Extended Lifespan: Eliminates seal wear during operation, doubling service life in abrasive media (e.g., blast furnace gas) compared to double-offset valves.
(B) Metal Hard-Seal System: Harsh Condition Adaptability
Seal Technology:
The disc’s sealing surface uses Stellite 6/21 hard alloy overlay (≥2mm thickness) via plasma cladding, ensuring ≥200MPa bond strength, HRC 45-55 hardness, and resistance to 800℃ short-term heat and particle erosion (e.g., coal dust, slag).
Bidirectional Sealing:
Combines triple eccentricity with metal sealing for bidirectional zero leakage, suitable for high-temperature steam (350℃, 4.0MPa) and corrosive slurries (pH 2-12).
(C) Worm Gear Actuation: High Torque & Precision
Torque Efficiency:
Worm gearboxes (ratio 1:30–1:60) deliver ≥1000N·m torque (DN300), ideal for large diameters (≤DN1200). Manual operation requires ≤80N·m (API 609 compliant).
Mechanical Lock:
Worm gear drive provides self-locking to prevent disc movement from media backpressure, ensuring system safety (e.g., high-pressure steam lines).
(D) Material Synergy: Corrosion & Strength Balance
