TIANYU Ductile Iron Double-Offset Flanged Butterfly Valve: Intelligent Control Solution for Large-Diameter Industrial Pipelines
I. Product Overview
II. Core Features: Perfect Integration of Double-Offset Technology and Ductile Iron
-
Double-Offset Structural Design
- Eccentric Principle: The stem axis deviates from both the seat centerline and disc center, forming double offsets. This design allows the disc to disengage from the seat rapidly when opening, reducing seal surface friction by 70% compared to ordinary butterfly valves.
- Sealing Performance: The 3D offset structure creates a line seal between the disc and seat. Paired with NBR/EPDM/PTFE elastic seals, it achieves ANSI FCI 70-2 Class VI (bubble-tight) sealing.
- Torque Optimization: The double-offset design significantly reduces opening/closing torque. The electric actuation torque for DN1000 is ≤800N·m, reducing energy consumption by 30% compared to similar products.
-
Advantages of Ductile Iron Material
- High Strength: QT400-15 ductile iron features tensile strength ≥400MPa, elongation ≥15%, and impact toughness ≥14J/cm², suitable for high-pressure difference conditions.
- Corrosion Resistance: The valve body uses epoxy coating (thickness ≥200μm), passing salt spray tests ≥1000 hours without rust, applicable to fresh water, seawater, and other media.
- Lightweight Design: 20% lighter than cast steel valves, reducing support structure costs. The DN1200 model weighs ≤1.2 tons.
-
Intelligent Drive System
- Actuator Configuration: Optional electric (AC220V/380V) or pneumatic (4-6bar) actuators. The electric actuator has IP68 protection and Ex d IIBT4 explosion-proof rating.
- Control Modes: Supports on/off type and regulating type (4-20mA analog), with optional smart positioners for PID regulation and ±1% accuracy.
- Remote Monitoring: Integrated with Modbus/TCP, Profibus, etc., enabling remote control and status feedback via SCADA systems.

Product Overview
IV. Manufacturing Processes: Precision Control from Material to Finished Product
-
Ductile Iron Melting and Forming
- Precision Melting: Using cupola-electric furnace dual melting, strictly controlling C≥3.4%, Si≤2.8%, and Mg residual 0.03%-0.06% to ensure spheroidization rate ≥90%.
- Resin Sand Casting: Furan resin sand molding ensures CT7-level dimensional accuracy, wall thickness deviation ≤±1mm, eliminating shrinkage defects.
- Heat Treatment: Castings undergo 920°C annealing, hardness controlled at 150-180HBW to eliminate internal stress.
-
Precision Machining and Assembly
- CNC Machining: Processed by gantry 5-axis machining centers, disc and seat seal surfaces achieve IT7-level precision with surface roughness Ra≤0.8μm.
- Stem Treatment: 42CrMo alloy steel stem quenched and tempered (HRC28-32), hard chrome plated 0.05mm for 5x wear resistance.
- Assembly Testing: Each valve undergoes 1.5x nominal pressure shell testing and 1.1x seal testing; electric actuators are debugged for 100 cycles without jamming.
-
Quality Inspection System
- Material Certification: Each batch of ductile iron provides metallographic analysis reports (spheroidization rate ≥90%) and tensile test data (yield strength ≥250MPa).
- Nondestructive Testing: Magnetic particle inspection (MT) for stem surface cracks; ultrasonic testing (UT) for valve body internal defects.
- Performance Testing: KV value (flow coefficient) testing for DN1000+ valves with error ≤±5%.
