BuTech Low Pressure Valves are designed for liquid and gas flow control in petroleum, chemical, power generating and general industrial applications.

Available in a variety of body styles, the valves are designed for operation at temperatures ranging from 0 to 650 F.

Their rugged construction provides assurance of fail-safe operation at pressures ranging to 15,000 PSI (1030 bar).

Note: BuTech Pressure Systems does not recommend compression sleeve connections below 0°F (-18°C) or above 650°F (343°C).

Materials of Construction

Standard materials of construction include 316 cold-worked stainless steel, 17-4PH, Ampco 45, and glass-filled PTFE. All BuTech equipment may also be produced in any machinable metal. Some of the more common exotic materials used are:

Hastelloy™
Inconel™
Titanium
Monel 400™

Tube Sizes: 1/8" through 1/2" ; Pressures to 15,000 PSI (1030 bar) ; Type: L/P Single Ferrule Compression
