Motorized Grooved Butterfly Valve (DN40-DN1200) - Fast Installation for HVAC & Fire | DELCO
The DELCO DK55-GV Series is a specialized Motorized Grooved Butterfly Valve designed for rapid installation in fire protection and HVAC piping systems. Featuring standard grooved ends, it connects seamlessly with pipe clamps, eliminating the need for welding or flanges. Powered by the compact DELCO-10 Electric Actuator, this valve provides reliable automation for water and air lines. Available in sizes DN40–DN1200 with Cast Iron, Ductile Iron, or Stainless Steel bodies.
Features
Optimized for project efficiency, this valve combines a time-saving grooved design with smart motorized control:
✅Grooved Ends for Rapid Installation
The valve body features precision-machined grooved ends compatible with standard couplings (Victaulic style). This design allows for installation speeds 3-5 times faster than flanged valves and naturally absorbs pipeline vibration and thermal expansion.
✅DELCO Motorized Actuation
Equipped with the high-torque DELCO-10 Series Electric Actuator. It features a compact, weatherproof housing (IP67) and provides stable On/Off or Modulating control, making it ideal for tight spaces in building risers and equipment rooms.
✅Resilient Sealing (EPDM/NBR)
The valve utilizes a vulcanized rubber lined body (EPDM for water/steam, NBR for oil). This encapsulated design isolates the body from the media and ensures bubble-tight shutoff, meeting strict leakage standards for fire and water systems.
✅Broad Application Suitability
Specifically engineered for Fire Sprinkler Systems, HVAC Chilled Water, and Water Supply networks. The rugged ductile iron or cast steel body withstands high pressure (PN10/16) while maintaining a lightweight profile to reduce pipe stress.
✅Wide Size Range (Up to DN1200)
Unlike many competitors limited to small sizes, DELCO offers motorized grooved valves up to DN1200 (48"). Large diameter units are equipped with heavy-duty gearboxes and high-power motors to ensure smooth operation in municipal or industrial water lines.
