Keystone butterfly valve seat

Because the performance of your system is affected by the butterfly valve seat that you select for your keystone butterfly valve, making the right choice is vital. Choosing the incorrect seat has the potential to cause issues with the system. When selecting the seat, make sure that you take into consideration the type of system you have, the placement of the valve, and whether or not you require a valve seat that is triple offset, made of PTFE, EPDM, or VITON. These are the four most common varieties of valve seats used in modern engines.

VITON

Choosing the right seat material for your butterfly valve is the key to a dependable seal. It must be able to tolerate the rough and tumble of industrial process. The seal must also withstand the rigors of repetitive opening and closing. To achieve this goal, manufacturers can design a seat to suit a variety of applications. The most common seat materials include PTFE, F250 and F251 as well as EPDM. Aside from the standard material, manufacturers can provide a range of complementary options, including a dual or multi position handle assembly.

The best way to choose a seat material for your butterfly valve is to make a list of your process conditions and stick to it. For instance, if you have a process requiring heavy duty industrial applications, you'll likely want to consider PTFE as a seat material. It has a wide temperature range from -50degF to 400degF. Additionally, PTFE provides resilience for the stem of your valve.
