Butterfly valve KG9 Wafer

For liquids, gases and steam in heating, ventilation, air conditioning and industrial processes

Data sheet

Product information

The GEFA butterfly valve KG9 in wafer design is a compact, centric and soft-seated industrial valve for applications in chemical, energy and water technology. Thanks to a robust grey cast iron body, a durable elastomer seat ring and a high-grade stainless steel disc, the KG9 offers a reliable, service-friendly solution for liquids, gases and steam. It stands out through its compact design, high tightness and flexible automation capability – ideal for industrial processes, HVAC systems and modern plants.

Special features

  • Centric, soft-seated construction
  • Wafer design for installation between flanges
  • Robust grey cast iron body EN-GJL-250
  • Stainless steel disc (1.4408 up to DN150, alternative materials from DN200)
  • Replaceable seat ring in EPDM (further materials available)
  • High tightness, vacuum-tight
  • Optionally in ATEX compliant version
  • Suitable for pneumatic and electric automation
  • Standard face-to-face length to EN 558-1 series 20

Advantages

  • Wafer design, face-to-face length to EN 558-1 series 20 (DIN 3202-K1)
  • Nominal sizes DN 50 to DN 300
  • Liner materials EPDM, NBR and PTFE
  • MULTITOP mounting plate and square adapter for larger actuator flanges

Versions

  • Nominal sizes: DN 40-DN 300
  • Pressure ratings: PN 10 / PN 16
  • Seat rings:
    EPDM (standard)
    NBR
    Viton
    PTFE (on request)
  • Disc material:
    Stainless steel 1.4408 (DN 40-DN 150)
    From DN 200 alternative materials: ductile iron, 1.4021 or others depending on version
  • Special aspects:
    Two-piece body for quick seat replacement
    Self-centring wafer construction
    Hermetically tight up to 16 bar
    Suitable for vacuum
  • Automation options:
    Pneumatic part-turn actuators
    Electric actuators (24 V / 230 V)
    Limit switch boxes, position indicators
    Solenoid valves, adapters, brackets

Areas of application

  • Shut-off duty in nominal sizes DN 50 to DN 300
  • Water, air and neutral media
  • Installation between two flanges
  • Automation via the MULTITOP mounting plate

Selection and installation

The KG9 is the wafer version of the KG7 – it is clamped between flanges. The MULTITOP mounting plate allows actuators with a larger connection flange to be mounted directly without a special adapter.
