This paper analyzes the limit of high temperature resistance of butterfly valve and key influencing factors. Temperature resistance depends on material, technology and seal structure:
EPDM Seal: -20℃~120℃
Nitrile rubber seal: 0℃~80℃
Teflon sealing: 0℃~150℃
Stainless steel seal: -29℃~425℃ (optimal temperature resistance)
The actual selection needs to synthesize the fluid type, pressure, temperature fluctuations and other working conditions to ensure stable operation in high temperature environments.

butterfly valveAs a type of valve widely used in fluid control, its high temperature tolerance is a key parameter in measuring its suitability and reliability. Just how high a temperature limit can butterfly valves withstand?

It must be clear that the high temperature resistance of butterfly valves is affected by multiple factors such as material selection, manufacturing process and sealing structure. Usually, the butterfly valve made of ordinary materials has limited high temperature resistance, and such products are suitable for occasions with relatively low temperature fluid media. In the face of the need to withstand high-temperature environments, it is necessary to choose a butterfly valve with special materials and exquisite manufacturing technology.

  • Adopting EPDM rubber sealing butterfly valve, its applicable temperature range: -20℃~120℃;
  • Butterfly valve with nitrile rubber seal, its applicable temperature range: 0℃~80℃;
  • Butterfly valve sealed with PTFE material, its applicable temperature range: 0℃~150℃;
  • Butterfly valve with stainless steel sealing design, its applicable temperature range: -29 ℃ ~ 425 ℃.

The stated temperature resistance range is for reference only. In practice, the heat resistance of butterfly valves requires comprehensive consideration of many factors such as fluid type, working pressure, temperature fluctuations, etc. Only by selecting suitable butterfly valves and implementing proper installation and maintenance can we guarantee their durable and stable operation in high temperature environments. Only by selecting suitable butterfly valves and implementing proper installation and maintenance can we guarantee their long-lasting and stable operation in high-temperature environments.
