GEA Tuchenhagen T-smart 7 Butterfly Valves

The T-smart 7 butterfly valve combines stability and ease of operation.

Butterfly valves are used as cost-effective
shut-off elements on valve blocks, panels and pipe
fences for product and cleaning.
The T-smart 7 offers the benefits of excellent hygiene,
higher ease of assembly, shorter assembly and
maintenance times and thus higher production
uptimes.
The double-sided valve disk bearing for defined seal
compression and the ideal design of the product area
enable that wear is low and the
product is handled gently.
The design of the intermediate flange facilitates
service and permits plant extensions even
when operations are running.

They particularly stand out for their new sealing

design, which meets the ever-increasing requirements The benefits at a glance:
placed on components in process plants worldwide. • Stable seals
And they offer maximum stability and service life • Easy to clean
with lowest switch torques. • Gentle on the product
• Easy to assemble

Intermediate flange version Pneumatic actuator

Compared to the former execution the intermediate
flange variant comes as an open design now. The
actuator is mounted on the inner flanges, as a result
of which the valve insert can be removed
conveniently without the actuator having to be
dismantled first.
Apertures in the outer flanges allow the actuator to
be mounted or changed at any time without
removing the valve from the process line.
The open flange design permits a screw-by-screw
re-clamping from four to three flanges during
operation, in order for the removed outer flange to be
welded onto a pipework extension, for example.
The redeveloped pneumatic actuators are compact,
deliver high performance, are ATEX-compliant as
standard. They are compatible with all butterfly
valve variants.
Torque maxima towards both end positions make it
suitable for use on both normally closed and
normally open valves. Mechanical stops enable
exact disk positioning. Air-to-spring and air-to-air
variants are available.
The integrated T.VIS® interface also accommodates
optional accessories such as
a booster cylinder for low air pressures, stroke limit
stop and two-position cylinder.
