Product Introduction
Butterfly Valve (Wafer Type) PN 1.6 with S.G Iron Disc – Gear Operated is a wafer-type industrial valve designed for pipeline flow isolation and control applications where a gear-operated configuration is required.
The valve uses S.G iron construction with an S.G iron disc and a gear box assembly for operation. The disc is accurately guided between two stems, while the integrally moulded rubber lining provides the seating arrangement around the disc and sealing interfaces.
The PN 1.6 configuration has a maximum working pressure of 1.6 MPa and a maximum working temperature of 90°C. Hydrostatic test pressure is specified as 2.4 MPa for the shell and 1.76 MPa for the seat.
Product Overview
This gear-operated wafer valve is intended for installation between compatible pipe flanges. Its wafer construction allows the valve body to be positioned between matching flanges in accordance with the supported flange standards.
The product is designed to IS 13095 / BS EN 593 (BS 5155) and is listed with compatibility for several flange standards, including BS 10, DIN, PN 10, PN 16, PN 25, PN 40, ASA 150, ASA 300, IS 778, IS 6392 Table 17 and IS 1538. Final flange compatibility should be checked against the actual piping arrangement before ordering.

Size Range
The source lists the gear-operated configuration in the following sizes:
| Size | Nominal Size |
|---|---|
| 8 inch | 200 mm |
| 10 inch | 250 mm |
| 12 inch | 300 mm |
| 14 inch | 350 mm |
| 16 inch | 400 mm |
| 18 inch | 450 mm |
| 20 inch | 500 mm |
| 24 inch | 600 mm |
The source notes that sizes above 300 mm are Non-ISI and sizes above 400 mm are available only with a PN 1.0 rating. Therefore, buyers should confirm the required size, pressure rating and applicable certification before placing an enquiry.
Connection Options
The valve is a wafer-type design intended to be sandwiched between compatible pipe flanges.
The supplied product source lists compatibility with:
- BS 10 Table D
- BS 10 Table E
- BS 10 Table F
- BS 10 Table H
- DIN
- PN 10
- PN 16
- PN 25
- PN 40
- ASA 150
- ASA 300
- IS 778
- IS 6392 Table 17
- IS 1538
Flange compatibility should be confirmed with the pipeline drawings and mating flange specification before procurement.
Design / Construction
The valve uses an S.G iron body and S.G iron disc. The disc is accurately guided between the two stems. The source specifies the disc as epoxy coated.
The two-piece stem arrangement is guided through PTFE / bronze bushes. Stainless steel is specified for the upper and lower stems, while the body lining is specified as EPDM / Nitrile.
The construction includes a gear box assembly for operation. This configuration provides a gear-operated alternative to the lever-operated version of the product family.
Pressure Information
For the PN 1.6 configuration, the verified product data specifies:
| Pressure Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Maximum Working Pressure | 1.6 MPa |
| Shell Hydrostatic Test | 2.4 MPa |
| Seat Hydrostatic Test | 1.76 MPa |
| Maximum Working Temperature | 90°C |
These values apply to the stated PN 1.6 configuration. The source separately notes PN 1.0 limitations for larger sizes, so pressure rating must be confirmed for the selected valve size.
Applications
The product source lists the valve as suitable for:
- Steam
- Water
- Oil
- Air
- Gases
Actual suitability depends on the selected lining, operating temperature, pressure, media characteristics and complete pipeline design. Buyers should confirm service conditions before selection.
Potential industrial applications can include suitable:
- Process utility pipelines
- Water service lines
- Industrial fluid pipelines
- Utility distribution systems
- Steam-related compatible services
- Oil service applications
- Air and gas pipeline services
These should be treated as application areas requiring technical suitability confirmation rather than a blanket approval for every installation.
Product Selection Guide
Before requesting a quotation, industrial buyers should provide:
- Required valve size
- Required pressure rating
- Pipeline media
- Operating temperature
- Operating pressure
- Mating flange standard
- Required lining
- Quantity
- Project or application details
- Any special documentation requirements
For this particular gear-operated configuration, size and pressure-rating confirmation is especially important because the source specifies different rating limitations for larger sizes.
Industrial Buyer Guide
When selecting a gear-operated wafer butterfly valve, procurement teams should compare the complete technical configuration rather than selecting only by nominal pipe size.
Important considerations include the valve body material, disc material, lining material, pressure rating, temperature requirement, flange compatibility and operating arrangement.
For this product, the S.G iron body and disc, epoxy-coated disc, two-piece stem design and available EPDM / Nitrile lining should be matched with the intended service conditions.
For larger-diameter pipelines, buyers should also verify whether the selected size remains available at the required PN rating and whether applicable ISI/non-ISI requirements affect the procurement specification.
