What is the difference between ACS butterfly valve and WRAS butterfly valve?

Publish Time: 2022-05-06     Origin: Site

WRAS butterfly valves are commonly used as a shutoff valve and flow control valves. As a shutoff valve, WRAS butterfly valve is to block the passage of fluid in its closed position and prevent any sort of leakages. Not only should WRAS butterfly valve efficiently seal the pipe and the flange to prevent internal leakages within the piping system, but also eliminate fugitive leakages escape from the valve to the atmosphere.

What is the difference between ACS butterfly valve and WRAS butterfly valve?

WRAS butterfly valve is a butterfly valve that has certification which refers to the Water Regulation Advisory Scheme. WRAS is a certification for drinking water safety in the UK. The Water Regulation Advisory Scheme (WRAS) is a certification scheme for the British water industry. Butterfly valves approved by this scheme show that it meets the requirements of the 1999 Water Supply System Regulations and its revised edition. The main goal of the plan is to avoid water being wasted, misused, abused, improperly used, consumed, incorrectly measured or polluted. This certification is a necessary license for the UK market. The company must check when providing water is to check whether there is a certification that meets the requirements of the relevant standards.

The French Ministry of Health requires sanitary audits and tests on plumbing and sanitary products, such as butterfly valves, to prove that the butterfly valves will not change the sensory, chemical composition and microbial characteristics of the water. After the butterfly valves meet the relevant standards and requirements, the ACS health certificate can be issued before butterfly valves can be sold in France through the customs.

What are the advantages of WRAS butterfly valve?

WRAS butterfly valve is small in size and light in weight. In comparison with traditional ball valves and gate valves, butterfly valves save at least 70% of space and weight.WRAS butterfly valve is easy to install and maintain. WRAS butterfly valve can be mounted wherever needed.

WRAS butterfly valve has simple and compact construction, which can on-off quickly at 90 degrees.

Compared to ball valve and gate valve, WRAS butterfly valve is great energy saver with lesser torque operations.

WRAS butterfly valve has stable anti-corrosion performance because of bubble-tight sealing resulting to no leakage under the pressure testing.

WRAS butterfly valve has wide selection of material, such as DI, carbon steel, stainless steel, super duplex, or alloy material. All are applicable to various mediums.

WRAS butterfly valve has long service life, up to 3 times the longevity of traditional valve.

WRAS butterfly valve is easy to replace the whole unit including valve component. No failure even with multiple on/off operations.

How can WRAS butterfly valve be applied?

WRAS butterfly valves are used in a number of applications for industrial sectors that include food processing, pharmaceutical, chemical, oil, water as well as waste water management. The WRAS butterfly valves utilized in these industries are generally manufactured in compliance with the Pharmaceutical Quality/Manufacturing Standard, CGMP (current good manufacturing practice) guidelines. WRAS butterfly valves for the most part have replaced ball valves in a lot of industries. This is especially the case for those dealing with petroleum because WRAS butterfly valves are less expensive and easy to install. It's important to note that pipelines that contain WRAS butterfly valves cannot be pigged for cleaning.

In throttling, regulating control and mud medium, the structure length is required to be short and the opening and closing speed is fast. For low pressure cut-off with small pressure difference, it is recommended to use a WRAS butterfly valve.

When the WRAS butterfly valve is used under special conditions such as throttling adjustment, strict sealing requirements, severe wear, and low temperature, the triple-eccentric or double-eccentric butterfly valve needs a specially designed metal sealing belt adjustment device.

Learn more something about WRAS butterfly valve can know the advantages of WRAS butterfly valve and the applications of WRAS butterfly valve.
