The PTFE-lined pneumatic butterfly valve is an automated flow control solution engineered for rapid and reliable operation in corrosive industrial environments. Combining a robust cast steel or stainless steel body with a seamless virgin Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) lining, it ensures complete isolation of metal components from aggressive media such as strong acids, alkalis, and solvents. Integrated with a high-performance pneumatic actuator, this valve offers fast response times for on-off control or precise modulation. It is widely utilized in chemical processing, pharmaceutical manufacturing, water treatment, and power generation industries where automation, corrosion resistance, and tight shut-off are critical for process safety and efficiency.

Pneumatic actuation enables fast opening/closing cycles, ideal for emergency shut-off and high-frequency operations.
Full PTFE lining protects against harsh chemicals, ensuring long-term durability and preventing metal contamination.
Precision-machined PTFE seat and disc provide bubble-tight shut-off, meeting strict environmental and safety standards.
The low friction coefficient of PTFE reduces actuator load, enhancing reliability and extending service life.
Wafer/lug design saves installation space and simplifies maintenance in complex piping systems compared to globe valves.
Virgin PTFE is chemically inert to virtually all corrosive chemicals, including strong acids (hydrochloric, sulfuric, nitric), alkalis, organic solvents, and corrosive gases across wide concentration ranges.
Double-acting actuators require air pressure for both opening and closing cycles. Spring-return (single-acting) actuators use air pressure to move in one direction and internal mechanical springs to automatically return to a failsafe position (fail-closed or fail-open) upon air supply failure.
Yes. By equipping the pneumatic actuator with an electro-pneumatic positioner accepting a 4-20mA or 0-10V control signal, the valve provides accurate throttling and flow modulation.
The standard operating temperature range for virgin PTFE lining is -20°C to +180°C, maintaining dimensional stability and reliable elasticity within this operating window.
The valve is manufactured to match major international flange patterns, including ANSI/ASME Class 150/300, DIN PN10/PN16, JIS 10K/16K, and GB standards in wafer, lug, and flanged configurations.
