Features of Ductile Iron Hard Back Seat Wafer PN10 Butterfly Valve DN100
The main difference between soft back seat wafer butterfly valve and hard back seat wafer butterfly valve is the seat material:
- Hard Back Seat butterfly valve: Combines the flexibility of a soft seat (e.g., EPDM for tight sealing) with a rigid metal backing to prevent extrusion under pressure and extend service life.
- Ductile Iron body material: More flexible and fracture-resistant than gray cast iron, ideal for seismic or vibration-prone environments.
- Bidirectional Flow: Allows installation in any orientation with zero leakage in the closed position.
- Compact and Cost-Effective: Wafer design reduces weight (approx. 5-7 kg for DN100) and installation costs compared to flanged valves.
- Durability: The rigid backing prevents seat extrusion or deformation under high pressure or vacuum conditions, extending service life.
- Bubble-Tight Shutoff: hard back seat butterfly valve Provides reliable zero-leakage sealing, ideal for water, gas, or mildly abrasive media.
- Resilience of hard back seat: Better resistance to wear in cyclic operations or high-flow environments.

EPDM Coated Wafer Butterfly Valve Applications
- Water and Wastewater Management: Used to control the flow of raw and treated water.
- Drinking Water Systems: EPDM valve seats ensure a sanitary, leak-proof seal and are suitable for drinking water pipes.
- Irrigation Systems: Effectively control water flow in agricultural irrigation pipes.
- HVAC Systems: Suitable for chilled water and hot water systems in pipes.
- Fire Protection Systems: In sprinkler systems, it is often used as an isolation valve or flow control valve in fire water supply systems.
- Food and Beverage Industry: EPDM valve seats are non-toxic and resistant to water-based liquids, making this valve suitable for food processing (excluding oil-based products).
- Chemical Processing: Low-corrosive chemical systems, suitable for systems conveying weak acidic or alkaline solutions that are compatible with EPDM.
- Power Plants: Cooling Water Systems, for cooling water flow management.
