Pneumatic TC End Butterfly Valve

ALIS Valves offers Pneumatic TC End Butterfly Valves designed for automated flow isolation and control in hygienic and sanitary process piping systems. These valves feature a circular disc mounted on a central shaft that rotates approximately 90 degrees to open or close the flow passage. TC, or Tri-Clamp, end connections allow quick installation and removal using compatible clamps and gaskets, making the valves convenient for cleaning, inspection and maintenance. A pneumatic actuator uses compressed air to operate the disc remotely, enabling integration with automated control panels and process systems. Depending on the application, these valves may feature stainless steel construction, suitable disc and seat materials, hygienic product-contact surfaces and double-acting or spring-return actuator configurations to meet specific operating requirements.

Pneumatic TC End Butterfly Valves are commonly used in food and beverage processing, dairy production, pharmaceutical manufacturing, biotechnology, cosmetics and other hygienic fluid handling applications. Depending on the valve construction and material selection, they can handle compatible liquids and process media within their specified pressure and temperature limits. Important selection factors include valve size, Tri-Clamp connection standard, stainless steel grade, disc and seat materials, operating pressure, temperature range and process media compatibility. Buyers should also consider the actuator’s air supply pressure, operating torque, control arrangement and required fail-safe position. Gasket compatibility and suitability for clean-in-place (CIP) or sterilization procedures should be verified where required. Selecting the appropriate pneumatic TC end butterfly valve helps provide automated flow control, convenient maintenance and dependable operation in compatible sanitary processing systems.
