GEMÜ Offers Tugela Double-Eccentric Butterfly Valve

GEMÜ, a global valve specialist, can offer their customers a wafer version of their GEMÜ R470 Tugela valve series in nominal sizes of DN 50 to DN 600 with immediate effect. 

The GEMÜ Tugela butterfly valve features double-eccentric construction, which is why it is also designated as a high-performance butterfly valve and suitable for pressures up to 40 bar or temperatures up to 230°C. The butterfly disc separates directly from the sealing seat when it opens, which reduces wear and thus increases service life.  

Further features of the GEMÜ R470 Tugela butterfly valve are the shaft blow-out protection as an additional safety measure in case the shaft breaks and the improved sealing due to an optimized disc design in spherical form. The GEMÜ R470 Tugela also has an antistatic spring for use in ATEX areas and a TFM seat ring which is particularly low-brittle and ensures reliable use in a wide temperature range.
