Type 578: Lug Style Butterfly Valve Datasheet

The Type 578 Lug Butterfly Valve has several beneficial design features unique to the Georg Fischer butterfly valve line. The double eccentric operating principle has an off-center disc and shaft that disengages the disk from the seal with only 3 degrees of rotation. This significantly reduces component wear and required operating torque, as the disk is not in contact with the seal when the valve is opening and closing.
