BIS Audit for butterfly Valves IS 13095 in Germany Completed
For one of its prestigious clients in Germany, ERCS Pvt Ltd, a top compliance consultant with headquarters in India, is happy to announce that the BIS audit for Butterfly Valves by IS 13095 is completed.
The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has certified ERCS's German client under the Foreign Manufacturers Certification Scheme (FMCS).
This milestone guarantees that the client can sell and promote the Butterfly Valve Product, which was made in Germany, in India because it satisfies all regulatory requirements for entering the Indian market following BIS rules.
Butterfly Valve Specifications According to IS 13095
The specifications for metallic body butterfly valves, which are commonly used in industrial settings to control or isolate the flow of liquids, gases, or slurries, are outlined in IS 13095. The following are the main attributes and specifications listed in the standard:
- Material Requirements: All the parts of the butterfly valve body as well as the disc, stem, and seals should meet certain requirements, namely chemical resistance, mechanical strength, and durability. Requirements aside, these interconnecting rods may be manufactured from stainless steel, ductile iron, cast iron, and many different kinds of alloy.
- Dimensional Specifications: IS 13095 addresses the face-to-face length, valve diameter, flange dimensions, and disc configuration of butterfly valves. These measurements are very essential for enhancing the fitting, mounting and operations of piping systems.
- Leakage Performance: This means that when the valve is closed it must be impossible for there to be any flow across the valve body. Since the seals are required to provide a good seal following the standard, leakage tests are performed at different pressures.
- End Connections: Butterfly valves come with flanged or wafer-style connection systems that are easy to install and match a variety of piping systems.
- Testing Requirements: To determine their performance under working conditions and whether or not the valve's design satisfies IS 13095 requirements, they must also pass the hydraulic, leakage, and endurance tests.
