12" ductile iron flanged centric butterfly valve with EPDM seat and gearbox operator. Flanged body design with integral ANSI 125/150 bolt pattern - no need for separate flange adapters. Ductile iron body provides greater strength and impact resistance than cast iron. Self-locking gearbox for precise throttle control.
The butterfly valve is a rotary valve in which a disk-shaped seating element is rotated 90° to open or close the flow passage. Can be left partially open or closed for flow throttling. Butterfly valves cannot be used where a non obstructed full opening is needed.
Features:
Gearbox operator is self-locking in any position for throttle control
Flanged body design offers dead-end service without the use of a downstream companion flange
