Supported drive shaft with low-friction bearings ensuring smooth disc rotation

Ghibson HD series double eccentric high performance butterfly valves

Ghibson HD High Performance valves are engineered for demanding petrochemical, power generation and steam lines handling elevated pressures and temperatures. The double eccentric geometry lifts the disc off the seat immediately upon opening, eliminating friction and wear.

Advanced double eccentric shaft geometry eliminates continuous seat friction
Pressure classes engineered up to 40 bar and temperature limits up to +400 °C
Fire-tested construction compliant with rigorous API 607 industrial guidelines
Seat configurations available in reinforced polymers or metal-to-metal seals

Ghibson TT series PTFE lined chemical butterfly valves

Ghibson TT chemical duty butterfly valves feature a fully lined body and virgin PTFE seating. Designed specifically for aggressive acids, caustic alkalis, organic solvents and high-purity pharmaceutical fluids, they provide superior resistance to chemical permeation.

Complete fluid path isolation through chemically inert virgin PTFE lining
Disc options in high-grade stainless alloys, Hastelloy or encapsulated PTFE
Two-piece split body design enabling efficient field replacement of components
Full compliance with hygienic and high-purity processing pipeline demands

Ghibson Damper valves for flue gas and air duct regulation

Ghibson Damper valves are custom engineered for industrial air ducts, ventilation shafts and high-temperature flue gas handling in metallurgical plants. They regulate and divert hot air flows and gaseous exhaust streams operating under low differential pressures.

Tailored body dimensions and disc profiles matching custom duct dimensions
Heat-resistant structural steel alloys rated for exhaust gas up to +600 °C
Metal-to-metal seating or controlled-clearance designs for thermal growth
Direct mounting provisions for electric actuators and pneumatic positioners

Ghibson G and GS series wafer disc and swing check valves

Ghibson disc spring check valves (G series) and swing check valves (GS series) prevent reverse fluid and gas flow across high-pressure pipelines. Their compact wafer profile saves valuable piping space and safeguards pumping stations against destructive water hammer events.

High pressure performance ratings accommodating system pressures up to 160 bar
Spring-assisted fast closure mechanism protecting pumps from water hammer shock
Body materials available in bronze alloys, carbon steel and stainless grades
Streamlined flow profile minimizing head loss with multi-orientation piping fit

Ghibson Valves and Ghibson Italia industrial fluid flow engineering

Italian valve manufacturer Ghibson Italia S.r.l. has developed and produced industrial fluid control valves under the Ghibson Valves brand for more than four decades.

Operating from its modern production plant in Zola Predosa near Bologna, the company specializes in butterfly valves, check valves and actuation solutions engineered for metallurgy, chemical processing, power plants, marine piping and water treatment.

Ghibson engineering philosophy unites hydrodynamic fluid modeling, precise machining of body structures and stringent seat leakage verification.

Built from ductile iron, carbon steel, stainless alloys, bronze and aluminum, the valve assemblies deliver dependable resistance against corrosion, erosion and aggressive media across challenging operational conditions.

Resilient seated butterfly valves of PD, KI, KA and KX series

The KI, KA and KX resilient seated butterfly valve series form the foundation of the Ghibson manufacturing range. Built in wafer and lugged body styles spanning nominal diameters from DN 40 to DN 1000, they are rated for differential pressures from 6 to 25 bar.

The valves provide bidirectional bubble-tight shutoff across wide industrial utility and process fluid networks.

For abrasive powders and dry bulk solids, Ghibson engineered the dedicated PD (PowDers) valve line. Its streamlined disc contour reduces resistance in particulate flow and lowers opening breakaway torque.

Replaceable liner seals in EPDM, NBR, FKM or silicone are matched to the specific media temperature and chemical aggressiveness of the installation.

HD High Performance double eccentric and TT PTFE lined butterfly valves

The Ghibson HD High Performance butterfly series is engineered for severe service up to 40 bar and temperatures reaching +400 °C in refining and steam distribution lines.

Its double eccentric geometry lifts the disc edge from the seat during the opening rotation, preventing frictional wear and heat degradation. Fire-safe designs are verified through standardized API 607 testing procedures.

For concentrated acids, alkaline reagents and high-purity pharmaceutical media, Ghibson offers the TT series with complete virgin PTFE lining.

The chemically inert fluoropolymer lining isolates the metal body from aggressive chemical contact, preventing metallic corrosion and eliminating trace contamination in delicate chemical synthesis operations.

Ghibson check valves: disc spring G series and swing GS series

Ghibson wafer check valves of the G and GS series protect industrial piping, centrifugal pumps and compressors against reverse flow damage.

The G series spring-loaded disc non-return valves are engineered for process pressures up to 160 bar and feature rapid dynamic closure, attenuating destructive hydraulic surges during pump shutdown cycles.

The GS series swing check valves feature minimal head loss when fully open and can be installed in horizontal or vertical piping runs.

Valve bodies and internal closure flaps are manufactured in carbon steel, austenitic stainless grades and aluminum bronze alloys for seawater and marine environments.

Preventive maintenance routines, seat liner renewal and actuator integration

Scheduled maintenance for Ghibson Valves involves inspecting seat tightness, verifying shaft bearing clearances and inspecting stem seals.

Field renewal of elastomeric liners and polymer seals is completed without discarding the metal valve body, substantially reducing plant overhaul expenses and maintenance downtime.

All Ghibson butterfly valves incorporate standardized ISO 5211 mounting tops for direct coupling with pneumatic double-acting or spring-return actuators, electric quarter-turn motors and manual worm gears.

Actuator sizing includes generous torque safety margins to guarantee smooth operation under peak differential pressures.

Component identification and spare parts selection from unit nameplates

Prompt and accurate identification of replacement components for Ghibson Valves and Ghibson Italia requires the data recorded on the factory metal nameplate.

The nameplate indicates nominal size, valve series, factory serial number, body and trim materials, elastomer seat compound, operating pressure rating and design temperatures.

Using this factory data, our engineers determine the exact repair kit: replaceable seat liners, stem O-rings, guide bushings, disc retainers and hardware.

Verification against factory engineering drawings eliminates dimensional mismatch and ensures trouble-free installation during maintenance shutdowns.
