Design Basis
In C95800 High Performance Butterfly Valve Class 150, the High Performance Butterfly Valve construction determines the closure support, body arrangement and maintenance approach. Confirm bore or flow path, body joint, stem/shaft retention, seat support, anti-blowout features where applicable and access requirements against the approved GA.
Pressure-Boundary Material
For C95800 High Performance Butterfly Valve Class 150, the pressure boundary is C95800. Nickel aluminum bronze casting grade widely used in marine and seawater equipment. Because this valve is Class 150 with Wafer / Lug / Flanged, verify the material condition, trim compatibility, bolting and any PMI/NDE or corrosion-control requirement as one package.
Pressure Class and Piping Interface
For C95800 High Performance Butterfly Valve Class 150, the specified rating is Class 150 and the piping interface is Wafer / Lug / Flanged. Lower-pressure industrial piping where material-specific pressure-temperature limits still govern. Body style changes bolting, face-to-face, dead-end capability and installation envelope. Final dimensions and pressure-temperature suitability must therefore be checked against the selected material and design temperature, not inferred from class alone.
Seat and Seal Arrangement
For C95800 High Performance Butterfly Valve Class 150, the listed sealing basis is PTFE / Metal per service. Ptfe-based seating provides low-friction soft sealing where pressure, temperature and chemistry remain within the selected polymer limits. Confirm leakage acceptance, pressure/temperature limits and cycling together with the Class 150 loading and the selected Gear / Actuator operating method.
Operation and Actuation
For C95800 High Performance Butterfly Valve Class 150, operation is Gear / Actuator. Gear or powered actuation should be selected from the valve torque curve, maximum differential pressure, operating frequency and required closing time. The final operator or actuator basis should use the actual size, maximum differential pressure, PTFE / Metal per service friction/seating behavior and required operating or emergency time.
Service Conditions
No service qualifier is fixed by the product name, so C95800 High Performance Butterfly Valve Class 150 should be released only after the actual fluid, temperature range, pressure cases, cycling and special service requirements are known.
Inspection and Testing
For C95800 High Performance Butterfly Valve Class 150, tie MTC/heat traceability, dimensional inspection, PMI/NDE where specified, shell/seat testing, coating checks, witness points and final records to the approved API 609 datasheet and ITP.
Documents Before Release
The manufacturing release for C95800 High Performance Butterfly Valve Class 150 should reference the approved GA, material/trim schedule, seat/seal definition, operator or actuator data, test scope and required final documentation.
