What Are The Core Characteristics Of Sanitary Butterfly Valves?

Sanitary Butterfly Valve is a high-cleanliness valve designed for the food, pharmaceutical, dairy, beverage, brewing, cosmetics and other industries to ensure purity and sanitation during fluid delivery. So do you know what are the core features of sanitary butterfly valves?

Core features of sanitary butterfly valves:
Material: Usually 316L stainless steel or more standard metal materials are used, with excellent corrosion resistance and biocompatibility.
Surface treatment: The inner and outer surfaces are electropolished to achieve a roughness of Ra<0.8μm to reduce adsorption.
No dead zone design: There is no gap between the valve disc and the valve seat to avoid residue accumulation.
Quick-install interface: Equipped with sanitary clamp connection for easy disassembly and cleaning.
Sealing material: Select FDA-compliant EPDM, silicone or PTFE and other materials to ensure non-toxic and odorless.

Sanitary butterfly valves pay more attention to materials, design and surface treatment to meet strict hygiene standards. Its core feature is a smooth and seamless internal structure that is easy to clean and prevents dirt accumulation, thereby reducing the chance of microbial growth.
