Butterfly valve type 41 Lug

Fire-Safe high-performance damper in lug design for extreme requirements.

Data sheet

Product information

The Bray type 41 butterfly valve in lug design is a double eccentric high-performance valve for demanding applications in chemical, energy, industrial plants and high-temperature processes. It offers maximum tightness, fire-safe safety, high pressure and temperature resistance and a durable, low-maintenance design. The Type 41 series meets global standards such as API 609 and ISO 5211 and is ideal for critical applications where absolute reliability is required.

Special features

  • Double eccentric design – less seat wear, longer service life
  • Lug design (end fitting possible, can be flanged on one side)
  • Fire-safe design in accordance with API 607 / ISO 10497
  • High-pressure capable: up to PN 40 / PN 64 / PN 100 (depending on version)
  • Sealing on both sides at full nominal pressure
  • Robust body made of carbon steel or stainless steel
  • Stainless steel washer (corrosion and temperature resistant)
  • ISO-5211 drive flange for direct automation
  • Optional: elastomer, fire-safe or metal seat variants

Advantages

  • Excellent for critical media, high pressures and high temperatures
  • Long service life thanks to robust metal construction and eccentric kinematics
  • Ideal for steam, hot water, oils, chemical media and abrasive applications
  • Minimized leakage due to fire-safe seat design
  • Low actuating forces → more efficient automation
  • Suitable as an end fitting thanks to the Lug design
  • Simple integration into automation systems

Variants

  • Nominal sizes: DN 50-DN 1200
  • Nominal pressures: PN 10 / PN 16 / PN 25 / PN 40 / PN 64 / PN 100
  • Seat variants:
    Elastomer
    Fire-Safe combination
    Metal seat (for high temperature and harsh media)
  • Housing design:
    Lug type (type 41)
    Flangeable on one side
    Optional special coatings
  • Automation options:
    Pneumatic quarter-turn actuator (single & double-acting)
    Electric actuators (230 V AC, 24 V AC/DC)
    Reduction gearbox
    Limit switch box, solenoid valves, bridges, adapters

Areas of application

  • Energy & power plants: steam, turbine cycles, hot water
  • Chemical industry: process media, solvents, aggressive liquids
  • Oil & gas: systems, pipes, process heat
  • Industrial plants in general: High-pressure/high-temperature pipes
  • Metallurgy & Refineries: Hot gas, oil products
  • Water & district heating: hot water transport, pressure networks
