Butterfly valves for powders and granules
When handling or processing powders or granular materials in silos, hoppers, or bins, reliable flow intercepting is crucial to maintain efficient and safe operations. The challenge lies in ensuring equipment longevity and effective sealing, especially in highly abrasive environments.

The VFS Butterfly Valves by WAMGROUP are designed for use with powdery and granular materials. They consist of two high-pressure die-cast aluminum alloy semi-bodies, a swivel disc made of SINT polymer composite or cast iron, and a pre-stressed elastomer seal. A version with a stainless steel disc and FDA/EN-approved seal is also available for the food industry. VFS Butterfly Valves are highly abrasion-resistant and require minimal maintenance, offering a cost-effective solution for a wide range of applications, including the food industry, chemicals, plastics, and construction materials. They operate effectively in environments needing dust-tight and pressure-proof up to 0.2 bar (2.9 PSI) seals, making them suitable for various dry materials processing plants.
