Discover the AOC-3812 series triple offset butterfly valve, ingeniously engineered to deliver a bi-directional, bubble-tight shut-off. With its remarkable geometric design, it ensures,
that the disc seal makes contact with the body seat exclusively at the final shut-off position. This prevents any form of rubbing or galling, thereby offering a torque-generative experience,
with a resilient seal equipped with substantial 'wedging' capability to guarantee.

Principle Of Operation
At the heart of our SNT triple offset butterfly valve lies a sophisticated design that guarantees a bi-directional bubble-tight shut-off. The unique geometry ensures that the disc seal engages the body seat solely at the ultimate shut-off position. This precise alignment eliminates any rubbing or galling, offering a torque-induced resilient seal with optimal 'wedging' action. This innovative mechanism provides an immaculate seal contact that is both dependable and consistent.
The Triple Offset Geometry
Offset 1 - Ingeniously engineered, the shaft is offset behind the seat axis. This design ensures an impeccable sealing contact across the entirety of the seat, delivering a flawless closure every time.
Offset 2 - The shaft centerline is strategically offset from the pipe and valve, enabling interference-free opening and closing of the valve. This precision engineering ensures smooth and seamless operation.
Offset 3 - By offsetting the seat cone axis from the shaft centerline, this design masterfully eliminates friction during both closing and opening phases. It achieves a consistent and compressive sealing effect surrounding the entire seat, ensuring reliability and longevity.
Ingeniously Designed Triple-Eccentric Valves: Engineered to withstand severe service conditions, these valves excel in high temperature and pressure environments while ensuring low leakage. The innovative design allows for frictionless operation and demands minimal torque during opening or closing. Remarkably, as the fluid force increases, the sealing capability enhances, delivering unmatched performance.
Integral Seat Ring and Body Structure: The sealing face is surfaced with high-strength alloy, ensuring exceptional reliability. This robust construction not only fortifies the sealing surface but also significantly extends the valve's life, making it practically maintenance-free.
This design ensures prolonged service life, approaching a state of near non-maintenance, thereby maximizing operational efficiency.
Stepped Sealing for Anti-Blowout Protection: This feature provides unparalleled security. The integral stem, crafted from high-strength material, enhances the valve's capacity to handle allowable pressure drops with precision.
Advanced Stem and Disk Driving Method with Offset Round Pin: By eliminating the need for drilling, the stem's integrity is preserved, significantly boosting the shearing strength and ensuring superior reliability and security.
Stem Sealing Design: Crafted from high-temperature resistant, non-metallic material, the stem seal effectively prevents fluid particles from infiltrating the bearing, thus preventing lockup or jamming, and ensuring smooth operation.
Dynamic Loading and Compensation with Belleville Springs: The packing system employs dynamic loading and compensation using Belleville springs. The packing box hole undergoes rolling and pressing processes, while the stem is meticulously processed to eliminate emissions, adhering to the stringent TA-Luft standards.
Diverse Sealing Options: Select from multi-layer composite seals, multi-layer all-metal seals, or integral all-metal seals, tailored to various service conditions. The multi-layer composite seal offers flexibility for optimal fit between seat and seal rings, meeting ANSI VI leakage class standards.
Thrust Collar Protection: The thrust collar prevents dead angle areas where particles or coking substances might accumulate, thus avoiding stem jamming. When flow reverses, it prevents rational displacement of the stem due to fluid force, thereby reducing the risk of significant leakage.
Effortless Maintenance: The high precision of parts and components ensures seamless on-
site adjustments and replacement of seal rings, enhancing maintenance convenience.
