fire Usage of AVK butterfly valves with fixed liner

Centric butterfly valves fixed liner

Our fixed liner butterfly valves are among the only a few of its kind and offer superior advantages

An outstanding seating concept is the heart of the valve. The rubber is vulcanized directly on the valve body forming a permanent bond with an optimal rubber shore hardness. Consequently, there’s no risk of deformation or dislocation of the liner. The valves are therefore suitable even under vacuum conditions.

The disc features a profiled sealing edge which requires minimal deformation of the liner to achieve a tight sealing. This provides less wear of the liner and low operating torques.
