IVTEX-G / IVTEX-T
Torque Seated Butterfly Valves
. The ultimate in high performance butterfly valves, IVTEX – Series incorporates the
“State of the art” valve technology to out perform the competition, IV’s design features
Three-way eccentricity and unique elliptical seat geometry ensuring compressive sealing
around the entire seat and a “tight” bubble free valve.
The valves operate using camming action which reduces the possibility of galling or scratching
on the sealing surfaces between the sealing elements (Seat & Seal). The camming action of
these valves also reduces the possibility of jamming between the sealing elements, which can
happen with these valves that rely on single point sealing.
The valve has excellent throttling characteristics with good low flow control capability which
offers an inherently higher rangeability. This feature of IVTEX – Series makes them ideal
for flow control / modulating duties. An adjustable gland box type shaft sealing arrangement
permits online adjustments of the packing to ensure zero leakage.
Inherent fire safe deign as per API 607 VI edition.

IVTEX – G / IVTEX – T
TRIPLE OFFSET BUTTERFLY VALVE WITH GEAR BOX
Key Features :
The geometry of the valve (Triple offset) ensures that the disc seal contacts the body seat only at final shut-off position without rubbing
or galling, providing torque generated resilient seal with sufficient “ Wedging “ to ensure a uniform seal contact.
Design availability in construction i.e wafer, wafer lugged (with thru drilled or threaded holes) and double flanged body.
Available in 2 distinctly different seat versions i.e Metal + Graphite laminated seal and Metal + PTFE laminated seal.
Torque seated, not position seated – No need to “find sweet spot” for seal.
Shaft does not penetrate through seal – Less susceptible to seal leakage.
Metal to metal Bi-directional bubble tight sealing.
Special packing’s can be provided to achieve low level of fugitive emission.
Robust single piece stem design which provides greater rigidity to disc and imparts better resistance to bending.
Anti-blow out proof stem design by providing snap ring feature.
Live loading concept – Provides predictable and constant packing compression.
Stem bearings to assure concentric stem rotation, allowing stem packing to provide max. sealing effectiveness.
Special arrangement for leak detection technique – Lantern ring provided with double packing.
Special material of construction available optionally for specific service
