Product catalog summary
Overview: The SOMAS butterfly valve, type VSS LT, is designed for control, on/off, and manual operations. It is suitable for handling liquids, gases, and steam at temperatures as low as -196°C (-320°F). The valve can be mounted between flanges or supplied in a lugged design.
Design and Material: The valve features an advanced triple eccentric design with a unique disc shape, allowing the use of a solid stainless steel seat. This design ensures durability and effective performance even under high flow velocities. The valve is made of stainless steel and can optionally have a seat made of reinforced PTFE for higher tightness class.
Specifications:
  • Nominal Pressure: PN 10 - 25
  • Nominal Size: DN 80 - 500
  • Temperature Range: -196°C to 200°C
  • Tightness Class: IEC 534-4 Class V (metal seat), Class VI (PTFE seat)
Flow Characteristics: The valve's flow characteristics are detailed with capacity factor KV and resistance factor ζ across various opening angles and nominal sizes. The relation between KV and CV is given as KV=0.86CV.
Installation and Certification: The valves are delivered ready for installation and operation, factory tested with actuators, positioners, and accessories. They can be certified according to DIN50049-3.1B or equivalent, with additional certifications available upon request.
Flange and Pressure Specifications: The valves are equipped with flanges that can be drilled for PN 10, PN 16, PN 20, and PN 25, with options for ANSI and BS standards. The face-to-face dimensions comply with EN 558-1 and EN 558-2 series 20.
Ordering and Customization: When ordering, specify the valve type, actuator, positioner, and accessories according to the valve specification system. The valves can be fitted with SOMAS manual, on/off, or control actuators, and other types of actuators and accessories can be fitted as per customer specifications.
Technical Information: Further technical data on materials, flange standards, and steam data can be found in section 6 of the SOMAS catalogue.
