Butterfly valves include various models such as wafer type 10K (WSBL, WSBG-10) and 16K (WSBL, WSBG-16), flange type 10K (WFG-10), and fire protection grooved type (WGB-10) [Database, 1, 3, 10, 12, 25]. Key features include a straight flow path structure and strong resistance to cavitation [3]. The valves offer excellent airtightness through precisely cast discs and EPDM seats [3]. An attached indicator allows for easy visual confirmation of the valve's open/closed status [3].Butterflyvalvesincludevariousmodelssuchaswafertype10K(WSBL,WSBG-10)and16K(WSBL,WSBG-16),flangetype10K(WFG-10),andfireprotectiongroovedtype(WGB-10)[Database,1,3,10,12,25].Keyfeaturesincludeastraightflowpathstructureandstrongresistancetocavitation[3].ThevalvesofferexcellentairtightnessthroughpreciselycastdiscsandEPDMseats[3].Anattachedindicatorallowsforeasyvisualconfirmationofthevalve'sopen/closedstatus[3].
Alarm valves (WAL-10) incorporate a proximity sensor system for the alarm switch, preventing malfunctions without mechanical contacts [6, 8]. The design features a top-tier flow path, minimizing pressure loss [6, 8]. Constructed from ductile cast iron, these valves ensure robust strength and durability, while their lightweight and compact design enhances installation convenience [6, 8]. A 3-year free warranty further reinforces customer confidence [6, 8].Alarmvalves(WAL-10)incorporateaproximitysensorsystemforthealarmswitch,preventingmalfunctionswithoutmechanicalcontacts[6,8].Thedesignfeaturesatop-tierflowpath,minimizingpressureloss[6,8].Constructedfromductilecastiron,thesevalvesensurerobuststrengthanddurability,whiletheirlightweightandcompactdesignenhancesinstallationconvenience[6,8].A3-yearfreewarrantyfurtherreinforcescustomerconfidence[6,8].
Pre-action valves (WPV-10) are fire protection valves suitable for environments prone to freezing, featuring a patented special structure clapper that prevents leakage [11]. They offer convenient reset functionality with an internal reset spring, eliminating the need for separate reset mechanisms [11]. Manufactured from ductile cast iron, these valves guarantee strength and durability, with minimized external piping to save installation space and improve construction efficiency [11]. The ability to supply a fully integrated unit with lug-type butterfly valves on both primary and secondary sides offers installation flexibility [11].Pre-actionvalves(WPV-10)arefireprotectionvalvessuitableforenvironmentspronetofreezing,featuringapatentedspecialstructureclapperthatpreventsleakage[11].Theyofferconvenientresetfunctionalitywithaninternalresetspring,eliminatingtheneedforseparateresetmechanisms[11].Manufacturedfromductilecastiron,thesevalvesguaranteestrengthanddurability,withminimizedexternalpipingtosaveinstallationspaceandimproveconstructionefficiency[11].Theabilitytosupplyafullyintegratedunitwithlug-typebutterflyvalvesonbothprimaryandsecondarysidesoffersinstallationflexibility[11].
The water and sewage valve product line includes automatic flow control valves (WAF-10S / 10F), soft-seated gate valves for waterworks (WRSV-10), automatic air release valves for water (WAV-10), pressure reducing valves for household water supply (WRP-305) [1]. It also encompasses stainless steel forged check valves (WLC Series) and globe valves (WFL Series), demonstrating a diverse range of materials and functionalities [1].Thewaterandsewagevalveproductlineincludesautomaticflowcontrolvalves(WAF-10S/10F),soft-seatedgatevalvesforwaterworks(WRSV-10),automaticairreleasevalvesforwater(WAV-10),pressurereducingvalvesforhouseholdwatersupply(WRP-305)[1].Italsoencompassesstainlesssteelforgedcheckvalves(WLCSeries)andglobevalves(WFLSeries),demonstratingadiverserangeofmaterialsandfunctionalities[1].
