Oring seal
We have oring seal on butterfly valve disc. Flow push oring outside its groove.
there nay construction solution to solve and void this problem?
valve is used with water at max 6 bar
in the valve is generated quite hi velocity ...about 1,5 mxsec
I didn't see the o-ring sealed butterfly valve on plate. Is it the structure same as tri-eccentrical one?
what are the current groove shape and o-ring material & section?
I believe there is a proper geometrical design and material selection capable of preventing extrusion of the seal... try also consulting o-rings Manufacturers catalogues and asking the question on the forum819: Mechanical Seal engineering within this site.
I think that the valve in object is most probably a "standard" or high-performance butterfly valve (i.e. with no more than two off-sets), as the triple-offset rotary valves are usually metal seated (and then disc gasket is a metal spiral wound one).
