This book covers design criteria, face-to-face dimensions, pressure-temperature ratings, and examination and test requirements for cast iron, ductile iron, bronze, carbon steel, and alloy steel butterfly valves that provide tight shut-off in the closed position and are suitable for flow regulation, such as in petroleum refineries and pipelines. Two categories of butterfly valves included are Category A, cold working pressure (CWP) rated butterfly valves that normally have a concentric disc and seat, and Category B, pressure-temperature rated butterfly valves whose seat rating may be less than their body rating and that have an offset seat and either an eccentric or a concentric disc configuration. The valve sizes covered are NPS 2-48 for Category A valves and NPS 3-24 for pressure-temperature rated butterfly valves, corresponding to nominal pipe sizes in ASME B36.10M, with pressure ratings up to and including ASME Class 600.
