Alfa Laval LKB
 
Alfa Laval LKB is a sanitary automatically or manually operated butterfly valve for use in stainless steel pipe systems.

LKB is either remote-controlled by means of an actuator or manually operated by means of a handle. The actuator is made in three standard versions, normally closed (NC), normally open (NO) and air/air activated (A/A).

The actuator is designed so that an axial movement of a piston is transformed into a 90° rotation of a shaft. The torque of the actuator is increased when the valve disc contacts the seal ring of the butterfly valve.

The handle for manual operation mechanically locks the valve in its open or closed position.

The actuator is fitted onto the valve by means of a bracket and screws. The handle for manual operation is fitted onto the valve by means of a cap/block system and a screw.

Standard design

LKB is available in three versions, LKB for ISOand DIN tubes, LKB-2 for DIN tubes and LKB-F for flange connection.

The valve consists of two valve body halves, valve disc, bushes for the disc stem and seal ring. LKB-F also consists of two flanges and two flange seal rings. The valve is assembled by means of screws and nuts.

 

Actuator

Two actuator sizes, ø85 mm and ø133 mm, cover all valve sizes. The actuator is available in two versions, LKLA and LKLA-T.

The actuator is fitted onto the valve by means of a bracket and screws. (The actuator can also be fitted onto ball valves by means of special brackets).

The handle for manual operation is fitted onto the valve by means of a cap/block system and a screw.

The valve has welding ends as standard, but LKB and LKB-2 can also be supplied with fittings.

Reliable performance

LKB butterfly valves come with several features that ensure reliability performance. A highly polished stainless steel disc with surface smoothness down to Ra<0.8 μm and bearing bushes clipped onto the disc stems prevent metal-to-metal abrasion and ensure smoother disc movement.
