Description

Soft Backing Wafer Butterfly Valve – Overview

The soft backing wafer butterfly valve is a compact, lightweight flow control device designed for reliable sealing and quick operation. Featuring a wafer-style body that fits between flanges and a resilient soft seat, it ensures zero-leakage performance for water, air, and compatible industrial media. Its economical design and minimal face-to-face dimensions make it a preferred choice for space-limited installations.


Key Design Features

  • Wafer Body Design
    Fits between standard flanges (ASME, DIN, EN, JIS) and is secured with through-bolts for easy installation.

  • Soft Backing Seat
    Resilient liner (EPDM, NBR, PTFE, etc.) provides tight shut-off and corrosion resistance, covering both the sealing surface and body bore.

  • Quarter-Turn Operation
    0°–90° disc rotation for quick opening, closing, and throttling control.

  • Disc Options
    Streamlined stainless steel, ductile iron, or coated alloy discs for optimized flow with low pressure loss.

  • Actuation

    • Manual lever or worm gear

    • Pneumatic, electric, or hydraulic actuators for automated systems.

  • Corrosion Protection
    Epoxy-coated body for enhanced durability in water and chemical service.


Applications

  • Water Supply & Wastewater Treatment – Isolation and flow regulation.

  • HVAC & Cooling Systems – Chilled and hot water circuits.

  • Food & Beverage – Compatible with hygienic-grade seat materials.

  • Chemical Industry – For non-aggressive and mildly corrosive fluids.

  • General Industry – Cost-effective shut-off for low and medium-pressure lines.


Advantages

  • Compact & Lightweight – Easy to install in tight spaces.

  • Economical Flow Control – Lower cost compared to flanged butterfly valves.

  • Zero Leakage – Soft seat provides bubble-tight shut-off.

  • Versatile Connection – Suitable for a wide range of flange standards.
