Zusammenfassung: | A valve disc (10) for a butterfly valve (2) is disclosed. The valve disc (10) comprises a disc body (22), a main groove (24) suitable for receiving a seal element (42), and an introduction groove (26). The disc body (22) comprises first and second faces (28, 30), an outer periphery (34), and at least one engagement means (36) configured to receive a shaft (8) for coupling the valve disc (10) to a valve body (4) of the butterfly valve (2). The main groove (24) extends along the outer periphery (34) to form a continuous groove. The introduction groove (26) has a centreline (CL2) and extends from a groove mouth (58) opening in one of the faces (28, 30) of the disc body (22) to an intersection (60) with the main groove (24). The main groove (24) is so dimensioned and configured that a seal element (42) can only be inserted into or removed from the main groove (24) via the introduction groove (26). Optionally, the valve disc (10) is a single continuous body of material. |
