Product catalog summary
Overview: The SOMAS Butterfly Valve, type VSS, is designed for versatile applications including control, on/off, and shut-off. It handles various liquids, gases, and steam, withstanding temperatures up to 350°C (662°F) or 550°C (1022°F) with high-temperature options.
Specifications: Available in sizes DN 80 to DN 1200 and pressures PN 10 to 25, the valve features a triple eccentric design with a durable stainless steel seat. The seat can be replaced with materials like PTFE for higher tightness (IEC 534-4 Class VI).
Design and Installation: The VSS valve can be mounted between flanges or in a lugged design, delivered ready for installation with factory-tested assemblies including actuators and positioners.
Performance Characteristics: Flow characteristics are detailed with factors FLP and FL for various opening angles. The pipe geometry factor FP, capacity factor KV, and resistance factor ξ are specified.
Pressure and Temperature Ratings: Ratings are outlined with recommended shaft materials for different temperatures. Maximum pressure drops and torque figures are provided for various sizes and conditions.
Actuators and Accessories: The valve can be equipped with SOMAS manual, on/off, or control actuators. A selection table for pneumatic actuators and manual operations is included.
Flange Standards and Seat Design: Designed for mounting between flanges PN 10-25, it can be drilled for ANSI, BS standards. Seat options include metal and PTFE with specific codes for materials and temperatures.
Additional Information: Further technical data, including materials and steam data, are available in the SOMAS catalogue. Gasket specifications for flange mounting are provided.
Temperature Specifications: Maximum temperatures for materials are specified, with consultation recommended for temperatures between 350 and 550°C, especially for high-pressure applications.
Ordering Instructions: Specify the valve according to the specification system, including actuator type, positioner, and accessories.
Valve Specification System: Options include wafer and lugs design, various materials for valve body, disc, seat, and shaft, and different pressure ratings.
Additional Notes: Consultation with SOMAS is advised for further combinations. SOMAS reserves the right to make improvements without notice.
