Kitz 6153eg-910 Butterfly Valve 10 Inch Flanged Gear

Product Description

The KITZ 6153eg-910 is a 10-inch flanged butterfly valve designed for industrial and commercial plumbing systems. The body is constructed from ductile iron, offering high strength and resistance to mechanical stress. The disc is stainless steel, providing corrosion resistance in a wide range of fluid applications. The valve uses an EPDM seat and is operated by a gear actuator, allowing controlled, manual quarter-turn operation on larger pipe sizes where lever operation is not practical. This valve is installed by licensed plumbers and pipefitters working on commercial or industrial fluid handling systems.

The KITZ 6153eg-910 is suited for use in commercial and industrial piping systems handling water, mild chemicals, or other fluids compatible with EPDM elastomers and stainless steel. The 10-inch flanged end connection makes it appropriate for larger-diameter mainline service, HVAC chilled or hot water loops, irrigation distribution, and industrial process piping where bi-directional shutoff or throttling is required.

Key Features

• 10-inch flanged end connections for direct installation into standard flanged piping systems
• Ductile iron body provides high impact resistance and long service life compared to cast iron
• Stainless steel disc resists corrosion in water and mild chemical service
• EPDM seat material suitable for water, steam, and many mild chemical applications
• Gear operator enables controlled actuation on large-diameter valves with reduced hand effort

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style flanged butterfly valve for use in commercial and industrial plumbing and fluid handling piping systems with 10-inch flanged connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or pipefitter in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and manufacturer guidelines. Depressurize and drain the line completely before removing or installing the valve. Flange bolting should follow standard torque patterns for even gasket compression. Verify fluid and temperature compatibility with EPDM seat material before placing the valve in service.
