BUTTERFLY VALVES: UNDERSTANDING INDIAN STANDARD IS 13095 AND THE PATH TO BIS CERTIFICATION WITH OMEGA QMS PVT. LTD.

WHAT IS A BUTTERFLY VALVE ?

A butterfly valve is a quarter-turn rotational valve used to regulate the flow of a fluid (liquid or gas) in a pipeline. It is called a “butterfly” valve because of its design, where a disc, attached to a rod, rotates to open or close the valve. The valve is popular in applications that require fast shut-off, as the 90-degree rotation of the handle closes the valve entirely.

UNDERSTANDING IS 13095: BUTTERFLY VALVES FOR GENERAL PURPOSES

Indian Standard IS 13095 specifies the design and manufacturing requirements for butterfly valves used in general-purpose applications. IS 13095 covers various types of butterfly valves, including double-flanged and wafer types. It includes metal-seated and resilient-seated designs made from materials like cast iron, ductile iron, carbon steel, and stainless steel. The standard applies to valves operated manually, pneumatically, hydraulically, or electrically, with nominal pressure ratings up to 4 MPa.

MANDATORY BIS CERTIFICATION BY JUNE 2020

As of  01 Jan 2021, all butterfly valves—whether produced domestically or imported—require BIS certification to be sold or used in India. This regulation emphasizes adherence to IS 13095, ensuring that bright steel bars meet the highest quality standards.
