Double Eccentric Butterfly Valves
What is Double Eccentric Butterfly Valve
Double eccentric butterfly valve is an industrial valve with double eccentric structure design. It can quickly disengage from the sealing surface through the valve shaft structure with two offsets, and has both fluid regulation and cutoff functions. Its core features are high pressure resistance, low wear, long life and high sealing performance. It is widely used in many fields such as urban water supply and drainage, metallurgy, and chemical industry.

Definition and structural characteristics
Double eccentric design:
The valve shaft center deviates from the butterfly plate center and the valve body channel center at the same time (i.e. “two offsets”), so that the butterfly plate can quickly disengage from the sealing surface when opening, reducing friction and wear.
Sealing optimization:
The sealing surface is usually made of stainless steel surfacing or silicone rubber material, combined with a double sealing ring design, which effectively solves the problem of shaft hole leakage, and the leakage rate can be controlled at a level close to zero.
Core advantages
High pressure resistance and long life:
Compared with the centerline butterfly valve, the double eccentric structure significantly improves the pressure resistance (nominal pressure can reach Class 300), and the metal valve seat design supports high temperature environment applications (up to 425°C).
Low operating resistance:
The double eccentric structure reduces the opening torque, making operation easier and reducing the failure rate by more than 30%.
Multi-scenario adaptation:
Supports manual, worm gear, pneumatic, and electric drive modes, and is suitable for media including water, oil, gas, and corrosive liquids.
Comparison of application fields
Field | Specific scenarios |
Urban construction | Urban water supply and drainage network, building fire protection system |
Industrial manufacturing | Metallurgical blast furnace cooling water system, power plant circulating water treatment |
Environmental protection engineering | Sewage treatment plant, water source allocation facility |
Special working conditions | High temperature steam pipeline (needs to be matched with three eccentric metal hard seals) |

Double Eccentric Butterfly Valve: Engineered Precision for Demanding Flow Control
Optimize pipeline performance and reliability with our advanced Double Eccentric Butterfly Valve. Manufactured with precision engineering and stringent quality control, this valve represents the ideal solution for industries requiring efficient, low-maintenance, and bubble-tight shut-off.
Core Innovation: The Double Offset Advantage
Unlike standard butterfly valves, our design incorporates two distinct eccentricities (offsets):
- Stem Offset Behind the Disc Centerline: Reduces friction during operation.
- Stem Axis Offset from the Pipe/Seat Center: Creates a unique camming action.
This double-offset principle ensures the disc lifts completely clear of the resilient seat seal the moment operation begins. The result?
- Dramatically Reduced Seat Wear: Minimizes abrasive contact, extending valve life significantly.
- Ultra-Low Operating Torque: Enables smooth actuation with smaller, more economical gearboxes, pneumatic actuators, or electric actuators.
- Reliable Bubble-Tight Sealing: Achieves exceptional shut-off integrity against liquids and gases in both flow directions.
- Minimized Maintenance: Robust design translates to lower lifecycle costs.
Engineered for Performance & Durability:
- Robust Construction: Available in premium materials including Ductile Iron (GGG40/50), Carbon Steel (WCB, LCC), Stainless Steel (CF8/CF8M), and specialized alloys to withstand demanding pressures (PN10/16/25, Class 150/300) and corrosive environments.
- Superior Sealing: Features high-performance resilient seats (EPDM, NBR, Viton® options) or optional metal seats for extreme temperatures/abrasive media.
- Precision Machining: Ensures optimal fit, smooth operation, and consistent sealing performance cycle after cycle.
- Compact & Lightweight: Offers significant space and weight savings over gate or globe valves, simplifying installation and support requirements.
- Global Standards Compliance: Manufactured to meet or exceed API 609, EN 593, ISO 5752, and ISO 5211 specifications.
