Description

The TANKFLY TPS8 clamped butterfly valve is a 3 inch (ND80) butterfly valve made by PEROLO for controlling liquid loading and discharge on ISO Tank Containers, Road Tankers and industrial pipework.

What sets this valve apart from standard flanged valves is how it mounts. The body is designed to clamp between two DIN or ANSI flanges or connect directly into pipework. As a result it weighs only 3.15 kilograms, less than half the flanged model, with a Face to Face of just 48 millimetres, and it can be removed for maintenance without dismantling the pipework: just loosen the clamping nuts and lift the valve out. This makes it ideal for jobs that need regular seal checks or parts replacement.

This new model upgrades the drive shaft from the old Hexagonal type to a Splined Spindle, which multiplies the contact area between the shaft and the mechanism. Turning force from the handle reaches the closure plate fully without play, giving a tight, precise feel even under continuous heavy use. The valve opens and closes with a 1/4 turn handle with position lock, standard opening direction is anticlockwise, and the compact design fits the limited space inside the ISO Tank Rear Cabinet.

How the Splined Spindle clamped butterfly valve works

Inside the valve, a Butterfly closure plate (Closure Plate) is connected to the Splined Spindle. When the operator turns the handle, the turning force goes through the spindle splines directly to the closure plate.

  • Closed position: the Closure Plate sits across the flow path and presses against the PTFE seal
  • Open position: the Closure Plate turns parallel to the flow path
  • Just a 1/4 turn, with a Locking Pin to lock the handle in the set position

The Splined Spindle reduces play between the shaft and the handle set, giving more consistent control than the old hexagonal shaft. Ideal where the valve is opened and closed often.

Decoding the Part Number: order any spec from code TPS8X7T00

The TANKFLY TPS8 product code shows the spec at every position, so the exact model can be specified without guesswork.

Code position Meaning Options
TP TANKFLY Clamped model Fixed
S Torque Transmission S = Splined Spindle
8 Nominal Diameter 8 = 80 mm
X Body material X = 316 Stainless, U = 904L Stainless
7 MAWP 7 = 7 Bar
T Seal and temperature range T = standard PTFE, H = HT Seal (-20°C to +250°C), A = food contact PTFE to CE1935/2004

The standard model sold is TPS8X7T00 (Splined Spindle, 316 Stainless, 7 Bar, PTFE seal, Manual). If you need 904L material, High Temperature seals, food grade seals or a Pneumatic actuator, give us the code from the table for a price and lead time.

How is a clamped butterfly valve different from a flanged one?

Topic Clamped (TPS8) Flanged (TFS8)
Mounting Clamped between DIN/ANSI flanges Flange fixed directly with Studs
Weight 3.15 kg 7.0 kg
Face to Face 48 mm 52.5 mm
Removal for maintenance Loosen the clamp and lift the valve straight out The flange nuts must be removed
Best for Jobs with frequent removal and tight spaces Permanent fixing points such as tank outlets and Bottom Discharge sets

If you need a permanently fixed valve at the tank outlet, see the Tankfly Flanged Butterfly Valve ND80

Standards and certification

The TANKFLY Clamped Butterfly Valve is designed to comply with transport tank equipment requirements ADR, IMDG, RID and EN 14432 and is approved by Bureau Veritas and RMR.

Upgrading from a Hexagonal shaft to a Splined Spindle

Older TANKFLY valves with a hexagonal shaft can be upgraded to the Splined Spindle system. The manufacturer requires replacing it as a set, not just the shaft alone. 3 kits are needed:

  1. Spindle & Spindle Seals Kit: 11 12 62 97 00
  2. Handle Kit: 11 14 85 40 00
  3. Closure Plate Kit: 12 85 57 81 00

When choosing the Spindle and Seal Kit, check the valve Serial Number before ordering, as earlier models used a different shaft design and seal positions. The Gavan Asia team can check the Serial Number and match the right kits for you.

Use only PEROLO OEM parts. The warranty ends immediately if non OEM parts are fitted.
