Band & Latch Inline Butterfly Valve – Galvanized

The Band & Latch Inline Butterfly Valve – Galvanized is a specialized valve used in irrigation systems to control or shut off water flow within a pipeline. This valve features a band and latch mechanism for secure installation and is constructed from galvanized steel for durability and corrosion resistance.

Features:

1. Butterfly Valve Design:
   • The valve operates using a rotating disk inside the pipeline, which can be turned to allow, restrict, or completely stop water flow.
   • Provides quick and efficient control of water flow.
2. Band and Latch Mechanism:
   • The band and latch system ensures the valve is securely attached to the pipeline, reducing the risk of leaks or disconnection.
   • Simplifies installation and removal without the need for specialized tools.
3. Galvanized Construction:
   • The valve is made from galvanized steel, which offers enhanced resistance to rust and environmental wear, ensuring long-term reliability in outdoor conditions.

Applications:

• Flow Control: Used to regulate water flow in mainlines or laterals, particularly in systems where precise control is needed.
• Pipeline Sectioning: Allows operators to isolate sections of a pipeline for maintenance or repairs without shutting down the entire system.
• Durable in Harsh Conditions: Ideal for agricultural and industrial irrigation setups exposed to moisture, chemicals, and varying weather conditions.

Benefits:

• Efficient Operation: The butterfly mechanism allows for rapid opening and closing, minimizing water waste and operational downtime.
• Durability: Galvanized steel construction ensures the valve withstands tough environmental conditions and high-pressure flows.
• Ease of Maintenance: The band and latch design allows for straightforward removal and replacement, making it easier to service the valve when needed.

Considerations:

• Pressure Compatibility: Ensure the valve’s pressure rating matches your irrigation system to maintain safety and efficiency.
• Proper Installation: Correct alignment of the band and latch mechanism is critical for achieving a leak-proof seal.
• Routine Inspection: Regularly check for signs of wear or damage to the latch and butterfly components to ensure consistent performance.

The Band & Latch Inline Butterfly Valve is a key component in irrigation systems where robust and flexible flow control is required, offering a reliable and efficient solution for water management.
