Zwick is a leading manufacturer of valves which meet highest requirements and quality standards. The product range contains metal-seated butterfly valves known as series TRI-CON, the check valves series TRI-CHECK and the TRI-BLOCK series, Zwick’s Double Block and Bleed Design.

30 years experience in design and production of valves guarantee high standard products. ZWICK valves are produced state-of-the-art. The triple offset butterfly valves are specially designed for critical services where they are used as shut off and control valves. The in-house design enables offering customized solutions for individual applications like the global Industries of Oil and Gas, Chemical, Petrochemical, Energy, Offshore and Steel. TRI-CON valves incorporate a unique third offset design with a true cone-in-cone seating and a reliable zero-leakage performance and allow bi-directional tightness.

The Zwick self-centering disc design that is keyed to the shaft accommodates differential thermal expansions of the disc and the shaft. The triple offset geometry assures frictionless running without radial loading of the seal ring and break-away torque. The TRI-CON series reaches a superior unrivaled life time cycle. For critical services a patented sealed bearing solution is offered to prevent fouling of the bearing associated with line media. Zwick’s zero-leakage bearing design assures that no line media will migrate into bearings cavity. TRI-CON’s standard graphite packing meets all requirements of TA-Luft for fugitive emissions from the shaft and packing arrangements. All triple offset valves are certified according to Fire-Safe to API and British Standard.

Zero-Leakage Always
The number of unique technical attributes of the product, as the cone-in-cone seating design with the multiple laminations and the metal seat makes the series TRI-CON to an allrounder for many different industrial applications. Zwick valves are used for industrial and exhaust gases, liquids, hot water or steam at lowest as well at high temperature zones up to 815”c. The TRI-CON is utilized extensively in the chemical, petro-chemical, oil & gas, offshore and district heating markets.

Special Features
The Self-Centering Disc
The construction guarantees the optimal position of the laminated seal against the seat. Jamming due to thermal expansion is eliminated.

Torque Transmission Using Keys
The disc is keyed to the shaft not pinned, providing balanced torque transmission and eliminating the danger of pins shearing off.

Ideal Lamination & Disc Design
The strong disc with its eliptical supporting surface offers the best fixing of the lamination. Bubble tightness is given as a result of the special machining of the lamination.

Supporting Bearing Bushings
The optimal position of the bearing reduces the risk of the shaft bending. This guarantees bi-directional tightness at maximum differental pressure.
