Product Introduction 1: Keystone Figure 990 Wafer Butterfly Valve
Product Overview
The Keystone Figure 990 is a resilient seated, wafer-style butterfly valve with a split-body design. It features a thin-profile one-piece disc/stem that minimizes flow obstruction, delivering high flow capacity, low pressure drop, and excellent modulating performance. This valve is optimized for general industrial service where reliable bubble-tight shutoff and easy maintenance are important.
Features
- One-piece thin-profile disc/stem for maximum flow and best control characteristics.
- Triple-function resilient seat isolates body and stem from media, provides bubble-tight shutoff, and seals against flanges (no separate gaskets needed).
- Split-body design allows easy seat and disc/stem replacement without removing the valve from the line.
- Wafer style for installation between ASME 125/150 or PN10/PN16 flanges.
- Available with elastomer or PTFE seats for different media compatibility.
- Corrosion and abrasion resistant options through material selections.

FAQ
Q: What is the main benefit of the thin disc design?
A: It provides higher Cv values, lower pressure drops, and better modulating control.
Q: Can the seat be replaced in the line?
A: Yes, the split-body design allows easy replacement without removing the valve.
Q: Does it require flange gaskets?
A: No—the triple-function seat provides flange sealing.
Q: Is it suitable for food applications?
A: Yes, with food-grade White NBR or EPDM seats.
Q: What is the pressure rating for larger sizes?
A: 5 bar (75 psi) for DN 350–500.
