Double Offset Butterfly Valves for Double Dead-End Service in Odessa

High Performance Isolation With Bi-Directional Sealing

Odessa operators handling double dead-end service requirements turn to the V1300 Series double offset high performance butterfly valve for positive tight shutoff in 2" through 16" ANSI 150 applications. Lug body construction accommodates isolation scenarios where both upstream and downstream pressure must be contained simultaneously, while the floating retainer ring eliminates cold flow of the seat to maintain seal integrity over time.

A351 Gr. CF8M stainless bodies and discs resist corrosion in environments where carbon steel would degrade rapidly. A182 Gr. F316 SS shafts provide the torsional strength needed to operate under load without twisting or binding, even after extended service cycles. RTFE seats deliver bi-directional sealing without the performance degradation common in elastomeric designs exposed to chemical or thermal stress. ISO 5211 mounting pads simplify automation integration when remote or automated operation becomes necessary.

How the Floating Retainer Ring Maintains Shutoff

Traditional butterfly valve seats experience cold flow, a phenomenon where the seat material deforms under sustained load and loses its ability to seal tightly. The V1300 Series addresses this with a floating retainer ring that constrains the RTFE seat and prevents plastic deformation. Instead of replacing seats every few months, you achieve long-term tight shutoff without unplanned maintenance or system depressurization.

The adjustable packing gland with RTFE packing allows field adjustment to compensate for wear or thermal expansion without valve removal. This design reduces downtime and keeps systems operational in facilities where production interruptions carry steep costs. Testing in accordance with API 598 and design conformance to API 609 standards ensure the valves perform as specified in real-world installations.
