Butterfly Valve — CI Body / S.G. Iron Disc

Krishna Industries (KELOR) supplies the butterfly valve with CI body and S.G. iron disc — a wafer type flow control valve engineered for reliable shut-off and flow regulation in piping systems. The compact wafer design allows for easy installation between flanges, making it a preferred choice for water treatment, HVAC, fire fighting, and general industrial applications where PN10 or 150# pressure ratings are required. The cast iron body provides mass and rigidity for the pressure boundary, while the S.G. iron (ductile iron) disc delivers the tensile strength and impact resistance needed for the moving component under hydraulic shock and repeated cycling.

This CI body butterfly valve with S.G. iron disc is supplied from verified and quality-assured vendor partners who conform to API 609 design and IS 13094 requirements. With supply capacity of 2000+ pieces per month, KELOR serves water treatment projects, HVAC installations, fire fighting systems, and process plant applications across India with competitive pricing, full documentation support, and Pan India dispatch from the Ahmedabad warehouse.

How Does a Wafer Butterfly Valve Work?

A butterfly valve uses a flat, circular disc mounted on a central stem that rotates 90 degrees (quarter turn) to open or close the flow path. In the fully open position, the disc is parallel to the flow direction, offering minimal resistance and low pressure drop. In the fully closed position, the disc is perpendicular to the flow and presses against the seat, creating a seal. The intermediate positions allow throttling or flow regulation, making the butterfly valve more versatile than an on/off gate valve. Understanding this operating principle helps procurement teams select the correct valve for their system:

1

Disc Parallel to Flow (Open)

In the fully open position, the disc rotates 90 degrees to align parallel with the flow direction. Fluid passes around both sides of the disc with minimal pressure drop — typically less than 5% of the gate valve equivalent.

2

Throttling Position (Partial)

The disc can be positioned at any angle between 0 and 90 degrees for flow regulation. This throttling capability makes butterfly valves suitable for balancing and flow control in HVAC and water distribution systems.

3

Disc Perpendicular to Flow (Closed)

The disc rotates to perpendicular position and presses against the elastomer seat (nitrile/EPDM/Viton), creating a bubble-tight seal. The seat provides resilient sealing against the disc edge.

4

Quarter-Turn Operation

Full open to full close requires only 90 degrees of rotation — fast actuation for emergency shut-off. Lever handle provides visual open/closed indication. Gear operator available for larger sizes.

Wafer Type vs Lug Type Butterfly Valve

Butterfly valves are available in two primary body configurations — wafer type and lug type. The wafer type is the standard and most economical configuration for water treatment, HVAC, fire fighting, and general industrial applications where both pipeline flanges remain permanently connected. The lug type provides additional functionality for dead-end service but at a higher cost. Selecting between wafer and lug type is one of the first decisions a piping engineer or procurement team must make when specifying butterfly valves.

FeatureWafer Type Butterfly ValveLug Type Butterfly Valve
InstallationClamped between two flanges — bolts pass through the valve body and connect both flanges simultaneously — compact and lightweightThreaded lugs on each side — bolts connect independently to each flange — heavier and larger
Dead-End Service❌ Cannot be used for dead-end service — removing one pipeline requires draining and removing the valve first✅ One pipeline side can be removed without disturbing the other — allows dead-end service for maintenance
Weight✅ Lighter — no lugs, thinner body profile — lower shipping cost — easier handling during installationHeavier — threaded lugs add significant weight — higher shipping cost
Cost✅ 30–40% lower than lug type — standard for most Indian water and HVAC projectsHigher — justified only when dead-end service or end-of-line isolation is required
Most Common Use✅ Water treatment, HVAC, fire fighting, industrial process — where both pipeline flanges remain connectedChemical plants, petroleum, and applications requiring end-of-line shut-off or periodic pipeline removal
KELOR Standard Supply✅ Standard — supplied from verified vendors in CI body / S.G. iron disc with nitrile or EPDM seatAvailable on request — specify lug type at time of enquiry

💡 Procurement Tip

For the majority of Indian water treatment, HVAC, and fire fighting applications, wafer type butterfly valve is the correct and most cost-effective specification. Only specify lug type when your piping system requires dead-end service (ability to remove one pipeline without draining the other side) or end-of-line shut-off capability. When in doubt, wafer type covers 90%+ of typical project requirements at significantly lower cost.

Seat Material Selection Guide

The seat material is the most critical selection after body material for butterfly valve specification. The seat provides the sealing interface between the disc and body, and its chemical compatibility, temperature resistance, and pressure rating determine whether the valve will perform reliably in your specific application. KELOR supplies CI body butterfly valves with four standard seat material options from verified vendor partners, each suited to different service conditions.

Seat MaterialTemperature RangeBest ForNot Suitable For
Nitrile (NBR) -10°C to +80°C ✅ Water, HVAC, general industrial service — standard seat — most economical — good oil resistance Strong acids, oxidising agents, high temperature steam
EPDM -10°C to +120°C ✅ Potable water, fire fighting, hot water — excellent weather and ageing resistance — NBC 2016 compliant for fire water Petroleum oils, fuels, hydrocarbons
Viton (FKM) -10°C to +200°C ✅ Chemical service — oils, fuels, aggressive solvents — high temperature process Ketones, esters, amines, hot water/steam
PTFE -30°C to +150°C ✅ Aggressive chemical service — food-grade — near-universal chemical resistance — GMP pharma compatible High pressure applications — PTFE has lower deformation resistance than NBR/EPDM

💡 Why CI Body + S.G. Iron Disc?

The combination of Cast Iron body + S.G. Iron (Ductile Iron) disc is the industry standard for wafer butterfly valves in water, HVAC, and fire fighting applications. The CI body provides the mass, rigidity, and casting economy needed for the static pressure boundary. The S.G. Iron disc has significantly higher tensile strength (400+ MPa vs 200 MPa for CI), superior impact resistance, and ductility — preventing brittle fracture under hydraulic shock, water hammer, and repeated cycling. This material combination optimises both cost and performance for non-corrosive service applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the difference between wafer type and lug type butterfly valve?
Wafer type butterfly valves are clamped between two flanges using long bolts that pass through the valve body — lighter, more compact, and more economical. Lug type butterfly valves have threaded lugs on each side that allow bolts to connect independently to each flange — enabling dead-end service (one pipeline side can be removed without affecting the other). For water treatment, HVAC, and general industrial service, wafer type is the standard and most cost-effective choice.
2. What is S.G. Iron disc and why is it used instead of CI disc?
S.G. Iron (Spheroidal Graphite Iron, also called Ductile Iron) disc has significantly higher tensile strength (400+ MPa) and impact resistance compared to Cast Iron (CI). The ductile nature of S.G. Iron prevents brittle fracture under hydraulic shock, water hammer, and repeated cycling. While CI body provides the mass and rigidity needed for the pressure boundary, the S.G. Iron disc provides the strength and toughness needed for the moving component — this CI body + S.G. Iron disc combination is the industry standard for wafer butterfly valves in water, HVAC, and fire fighting applications.
3. What seat materials are available for CI butterfly valves?
Nitrile (NBR) is the standard seat for water, HVAC, and general service — temperature range -10°C to +80°C. EPDM is specified for potable water, fire fighting, and higher temperature service up to +120°C. Viton (FKM) is specified for chemical resistance against oils, fuels, and aggressive solvents up to +200°C. PTFE is specified for aggressive chemical service and food-grade applications up to +150°C. Contact KELOR to specify the correct seat material for your process fluid.
