Body of EKN® Butterfly Valves with welded-on ends

 

For Dutch waterworks VAG is currently manufacturing EKN® Butterfly Valves with a nominal diameter of DN 600 and with specially designed welded-on ends.

 

In the framework of this project, the butterfly valves are not going to be installed using the standard flanged connections, but will be welded directly into the water supply pipeline. This method is preferred by some customers for long-distance pipelines buried underground.

 

VAG manufactures over 5,000 valves per year as customised products which are designed and manufactured specifically to the customer’s requirements and are tested to the highest standards in terms of extreme water pressures and constant operational safety. And this is what our customers appreciate when they order VAG valves.
