Hi All,
I was reading an archived discussion about the use of ball vs. butterfly valves. This is a subject for a running project I am working on now.
We are installing new seawater fine filters for the water injection system. Triple Offset butterfly valves are an option on the table along with the normal gate valves. Line sizes range from 12" to 18".
Valves will be used for isolation: Filter Inlet Isolation, Outlet Filter Isolation and Backwash Line Isolation (activated by DP).
I tried to find some more literature about single, double and triple offset butterfly valves along with some schematics but couldn't find much. Would you please guide to where I can find such information?
Also, which valve should we use, Ball or Gate or Butterfly? Also, What's the difference between single, double and triple offset butterfly valves?
Appreciate your input
Regards,
Sherif
