Butterfly Valves: Double-Flanged, Lug- and Wafer-Type

API 609 is the dimensional and performance standard for butterfly valves in petroleum and natural gas service.

What is API 609?

API 609 (Butterfly Valves: Double-Flanged, Lug- and Wafer-Type) is an industrial valve standard issued by American Petroleum Institute (API). Covers butterfly valves from NPS 2" to 200" in pressure classes 150 to 600.

Overview - API 609

API 609 is the dimensional and performance standard for butterfly valves in petroleum and natural gas service. It covers double-flanged (wafer), lug, and tapped-lug body designs in concentric (resilient seat), double-eccentric (high-performance), and triple-eccentric (metal seat) configurations. API 609 aligns butterfly valve design with ASME pressure classes and defines testing requirements for seat tightness.

Scope

Covers butterfly valves from NPS 2" to 200" in pressure classes 150 to 600. Three categories: Category A (concentric resilient seat, general service), Category B (offset seat, high-performance / fire-safe), and Category C (triple-offset, metal-seat, high-pressure / high-temperature).

Vajra Industrial Solutions manufactures and supplies valves engineered to comply with API 609, each delivered with API 609 design conformance on data sheet and Hydrostatic test certificate as standard.
