Product Description

01

Product Parameters

The IBC DN80 Integrated Butterfly Valve is a complete, ready-to-install unit designed for 3-inch (DN80) IBC container outlets. Its integrated flange or weld-end spool allows for direct, secure mounting. The valve operates with a low-torque quarter-turn mechanism, features a full-port design for minimal flow restriction, and is rated for pressures up to PN10/16. The standard temperature range is -20°C to +150°C, depending on seal material. It includes an ISO 5211 top mount for easy attachment of manual handles or automated actuators.

02

Production Raw Materials

The primary structure is constructed from high-grade 316/316L stainless steel, chosen for its superior corrosion resistance, especially in challenging chemical and CIP/SIP environments. The integrated spool and valve body are typically machined from solid bar stock or forgings for maximum integrity. The rotating disc is made from polished stainless steel. The sealing system utilizes a high-performance seat made from PTFE, EPDM, or FKM (Viton®), ensuring compatibility with a wide range of aggressive and sensitive media while meeting FDA and EHEDG compliance.

Production Process

Manufacturing begins with the precision CNC machining of the integrated valve body and spool from stainless steel, ensuring a seamless internal flow path and perfect dimensional accuracy for mounting. The disc is contoured and polished to a mirror finish. Critical components are then assembled in a clean environment. The integrated unit is cleaned, passivated, and electro-polished to achieve a smooth, hygienic surface finish that prevents bacterial adhesion and facilitates cleaning. All assembly is performed with calibrated torque tools to ensure consistent performance.

04

Usage Scenarios

This integrated valve is designed for applications requiring a secure, leak-proof, and compact connection directly on the IBC, reducing the need for additional pipe spools and fittings.

  • Chemical Processing: For safe and contained handling of bulk solvents, acids, and reactive chemicals.
  • Pharmaceutical & Biotech: In processes requiring high hygiene standards, such as transferring buffers, media, and purified water in closed systems.
  • Food & Beverage Production: For handling large volumes of liquids like oils, syrups, and dairy products where quick installation and cleanability are critical.
  • Industrial Water Treatment: For precise dosing and control of treatment chemicals from large IBC totes.
05

Quality Inspection

Each integrated valve undergoes a rigorous multi-stage inspection. Dimensional checks verify the spool and flange/weld-end compatibility. Surface finish is measured to ensure it meets sanitary specifications. Every unit is subjected to a 100% pressure test, including both a shell strength test and a seat leakage test per ISO 5208 standards, to guarantee zero leakage at 1.5 times the rated working pressure. A final operational test confirms smooth, friction-free rotation of the disc.

06

Packaging & Shipping

To protect the precision-machined surfaces and integrated assembly, the valve is thoroughly cleaned and all ports are sealed with protective plastic caps. It is then wrapped in VCI (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor) paper to prevent corrosion and placed in a sealed plastic bag. The unit is securely packed in a custom-fitted, foam-lined corrugated carton to prevent any movement or impact damage during transit. Packaging is clearly labeled with part numbers, material certifications, and inspection status.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q What does "DN80 integrated" mean for an IBC butterfly valve?
"DN80" refers to a nominal bore diameter of 80mm (3 inches), matching the standard IBC container outlet size. "Integrated" means the valve body and the spool piece (flange or weld-end connection) are manufactured as a single, combined unit — eliminating the need for separate fittings and reducing potential leak points.
Q What seal materials are available, and how do I choose the right one?
The valve is available with PTFE, EPDM, or FKM (Viton®) seats. PTFE is ideal for highly aggressive chemicals and broad chemical compatibility. EPDM suits water, steam, and food-grade applications. FKM (Viton®) is recommended for oils, fuels, and hydrocarbon-based media. Please consult the chemical compatibility chart or contact our technical team to confirm the best choice for your specific media.
Q Is the IBC DN80 Integrated Butterfly Valve suitable for food and pharmaceutical applications?
Yes. The valve is constructed from FDA-compliant 316/316L stainless steel with EHEDG-approved seal options. Its electro-polished internal surfaces meet sanitary standards, preventing bacterial adhesion and facilitating CIP/SIP cleaning. It is widely used in food & beverage, dairy, pharmaceutical, and biotech industries.
Q Can this valve be automated with an actuator?
Yes. The valve features an ISO 5211 standard top-mount pad, making it fully compatible with a wide range of pneumatic, electric, and hydraulic actuators. This allows for easy integration into automated process control systems without the need for additional adapter plates.
Q What pressure and temperature ratings does this valve support?
The valve is rated for working pressures up to PN10/16 (10–16 bar). The standard operating temperature range is -20°C to +150°C (-4°F to +302°F), though the exact maximum temperature depends on the selected seat/seal material. FKM seals generally allow higher temperature operation compared to EPDM.
Q What documentation and certifications are provided with each valve?
Each valve ships with full material traceability documentation, material test reports (MTR) for the stainless steel components, a pressure test certificate (per ISO 5208), surface finish reports, and a declaration of conformity. Custom documentation packages including 3.1 material certificates can be arranged upon request.
