Pain Points and Proposal
1. High leakage rate & Short service life:
① Excessive valve torque creates elevated sealing surface pressure, significantly increasing risks of galling, creep deformation, overload damage, and adhesive wear. This accelerates sealing surface degradation, heightening internal leakage probability.
② Poor fitting degree between seat ring and disc ring causes stress concentration.
2. Repair Limitations:
① Seat/disc ring interfaces feature irregular conical surfaces with non-replicable eccentric angles. Without precise cone angle and dimensional chain tolerance data, repair integrity cannot be guaranteed.
② Fixed seat design prevents disassembly for maintenance.
③ Seal rings and seats lack interchangeability across product lines.
3. Fail to Achieve True Bi-directional Sealing:
4. Passing Factory Acceptance Tests but Failing In-Service:
Blind flange pressure testing yields false positives due to large cavity volume – bubbles cannot traverse conduits within standard test durations, masking leakage.
Lower torque, longer life of triple offset butterfly valve.
