Product catalog summary
Overview: This document provides comprehensive technical specifications and features of Bray valve series, emphasizing design, materials, and performance characteristics. It highlights aspects such as alignment, sealing, pressure ratings, and material selection for various valve components, ensuring durability, efficiency, and reliability in industrial applications.
Specifications:
  • Alignment and Installation: The wafer version ensures precise alignment during installation, preventing disc interference with adjacent pipes.
  • Stem Design: Features a blowout-proof stem with a positive stem-to-disc drive connection for enhanced durability and reliability.
  • Disc and Seat: The PTFE disc is encapsulated over stainless steel, and the seat design minimizes torque and wear, providing bubble-tight shutoff.
  • Body and Pressure Ratings: Bodies are epoxy-coated and meet ASME Class 150 and DIN 3840 pressure ratings, with bidirectional bubble-tight shutoff capabilities.
Materials:
  • Body Materials: Options include ductile iron, stainless steel, carbon steel, and more, depending on valve size and series.
  • Disc Materials: Available in stainless steel, PTFE, UHMWPE, Hastelloy®, and titanium.
  • Seal and Bearing Materials: PTFE, acetal, BUNA-N, FKM, and reinforced PTFE are used for various seals and bearings.
Design Features:
  • Stem Retaining Assembly: Utilizes a unique retaining ring and thrust washer to prevent unintentional stem removal.
  • Seat Design: The tongue and groove design lowers torque and isolates flowing media from the body.
  • Pressure Testing: All valves are pressure tested to 110% of rated pressure to ensure bubble-tight shutoff.
Series Specifics:
  • Series 31H: Designed for high-pressure applications with a focus on fire protection, featuring a modular design for easy actuator mounting.
  • Series 3A/3AH: Double flanged design compatible with international flange standards, offering bidirectional bubble-tight shutoff.
  • Series 32/33 & 35/36: Features high Cv ratings and advanced seat design for enhanced performance and reliability.
Actuators & Accessories: Bray offers a range of actuators, including Series 70 electric actuators and Series 92/93 pneumatic actuators. Additional accessories include manual operators, valve status monitors, and electro-pneumatic positioners.
Conclusion: Bray valves are engineered for high performance and reliability, with a focus on precise alignment, durable materials, and advanced sealing technologies. They are suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, offering flexibility in material selection and compliance with international standards. The document advises consulting Bray representatives for specific application requirements and material selection.

Design benefits isolation from line media achieved in two fundamental design concepts: A. Internal Disc/Stem Connection Bray offers three disc-to-stem connections: Double ‘D’, Splined, and Double Key. These internal, non-wetted connections eliminate exposed external disc-to-stem connections such as screws or taper pins. 1. Double D: precision machined flats on the stem and in the disc. Sizes 2”– 20” (50mm–500mm) 2. Spline: male splines in the stem and female in the disc. Standard Sizes 22”– 48” (550mm–1200mm) Selected Sizes 54”– 120” (1400mm–3000mm) 3. Double Keyed: keyways machined into disc...

SEAT MATERIALS Seat Temperature Ranges EPDM (Peroxide Cured) EPDM is the abbreviated name for Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer. In general industry, one may see other abbreviations or trade names used in lieu of EPDM such as EPT, Nordel, ECD, or EPR. Typically these are the same materials as EPDM. EPDM is a standard seat material offered in Bray resilient-seated butterfly valves. It is the most universal and economical of seat materials offered by Bray; that is, it may be used in a wider range of applications than BUNA-N. Of important significance also is the fact all EPDM seat materials sold...

SEAT MATERIALS Seat Temperature Ranges PTFE LINED EPDM (Standard or High-temp) PTFE lined EPDM seat consists of a PTFE liner which forms the faces and the flow way of the seat, and is molded on to an EPDM elastomer backing. Only the inert non-stick PTFE liner surface is exposed to the line media. The EPDM backing acts as a resilient support to the relatively rigid PTFE. These seats are generally used where BUNA-N and EPDM seats are not chemically suitable, especially in corrosive services. VIRGIN PTFE All Bray PTFE seats and encapsulated discs are molded from pure, virgin PTFE material to the...

All Bray valves are pressure tested to 110% of rated pressure to assure bubble tight shutoff. SEAL CAPSULE: (Secondary Seal) This seal capsule fully isolates the valve body and stem from the line media. The Seal Capsule is made of a virgin PTFE enclosing the internal energizer. The capsule fits into grooves machined in the upper and lower disc hubs. When compressed between the disc and seat during assembly, the capsule becomes energized, exerting both upward and downward pressure on disc and seat surfaces. STANDARD MATERIALS SELECTION Name Ductile Iron Stainless Steel Carbon Steel Stainless Steel...
