What Is a Double Flange Butterfly Valve?

A Double Flange Butterfly Valveis a resilient seated quarter-turn valve featuring integral flanges on both sides of the body, providing a rigid and secure connection to pipeline flanges. Compared with wafer and lug butterfly valves, the double flange design offers greater structural stability, making it especially suitable for large-diameter pipelines, underground installations, pump stations, and municipal water transmission projects.

Vulcanized Seat

Permanently bonded to the valve body for superior sealing reliability and long-term durability.

Replaceable Sea

Designed for easy maintenance and economical seat replacement without replacing the entire valve.

Manufactured according toISO 5752 Series 13 , our valves are available with multiple body, disc, shaft, and seat material combinations to suit a wide range of operating media, temperatures, and pressures.

Double Flange Butterfly Valve Features

Heavy-Duty Double Flange Body Design

Heavy-Duty Double Flange Body Design

The integraldouble flange bodyprovides exceptional structural strength and installation stability compared with wafer-style butterfly valves. Each flange is cast as part of the valve body, ensuring accurate alignment with pipeline flanges and reducing stress during installation. This robust construction is particularly suitable forlarge-diameter pipelines , pump stations, buried pipelines, and high-flow water transmission systems. The design also supports heavy manual gear operators, pneumatic actuators, and electric actuators without affecting valve performance or sealing
Optimized Low Torque Operation Double Flange Butterfly Valve

Optimized Low Torque Operation Double Flange Butterfly Valve

The streamlined disc profile minimizes flow resistance and operating torque, allowing smooth valve operation with manual levers, gearboxes, pneumatic actuators, or electric actuators. Lower torque not only reduces actuator size and energy consumption but also extends the service life of valve components by minimizing mechanical stress during opening and closing cycles.

Butterfly Valve Flow Coefficient Kv & Pressure Drop Reference Data

All concentric lug butterfly valves and wafer butterfly valves are equipped with complete opening-angle Kv flow coefficient table and GPM-PSI pressure drop nomograph, supporting metric & imperial dual-system pipeline design calculation for global industrial projects. Flow coefficient Kv represents the fluid throughput capacity of the valve; higher Kv value brings lower pipeline pressure loss and less operation energy consumption.

Table Instruction: Small opening 10°~30° for precise flow throttling; medium opening 40°~70° for circulating water regulation; 90° full open delivers maximum Kv value with minimum flow resistance for main pipeline isolation.

2. GPM & PSI Pressure Drop Nomograph Chart

Figure 1: Flow Rate & Pressure Drop Nomograph for Concentric Butterfly Valve

The pressure drop curve chart adopts US imperial units, with horizontal axis for flow rate GPM and vertical axis for differential pressure (PSI / Feet water head). Diagonal slant lines correspond to matching Kv/Cv flow coefficients, helping North American and ANSI standard clients quickly calculate pipeline medium pressure loss.

  • Horizontal axis: Flow range 100 ~ 100,000 Gallons Per Minute, covers DN50~DN600 full size flow demand;
  • Vertical axis dual units: PSI pressure difference and Feet water head, convenient for direct conversion of pipeline design parameters;
  • Operation logic: Locate flow GPM vertically intersect Kv diagonal line, horizontally read pressure drop value to judge system energy loss.

3. Combined Application of Kv Table & Pressure Drop Curve

  • Step 1: Confirm working opening angle (throttling / full open), extract Kv value from the table;
  • Step 2: Convert metric Kv to US Cv via formula: Cv = Kv × 1.156;
  • Step 3: Match Cv diagonal line on the GPM-PSI nomograph, calculate actual pipeline differential pressure;
  • Step 4: If pressure drop exceeds design allowable value, upgrade to larger DN butterfly valve to raise overall Kv flow capacity.

Catalog Technical Tips

  • Kv test standard: Clean water 15°C, SG=1, comply with EN 12266-1 & ISO5211;
  • Avoid long-term stable operation under 10°~20° small opening, high pressure drop will cause cavitation and seal abrasion;
  • The pressure drop nomograph only applies to liquid medium; gas & steam flow calculation requires special gas coefficient formula;
  • We provide dual system flow data to meet metric European projects and imperial US standard engineering selection demands.
