    Pipe SS304L, Butterfly Valve Body also SS304L?

    I have gotten the price and it is really 10 times more expensive. You do have a valid point for the corrosion issue. If for example the body of butterfly valve is SS304 and the piping material is SS304L, will there still be corrosion issue? SS304L is very uncommon to be used as butterfly valve...

    Conductivity is 20-25 microS/cm. The water will only be in contact with the seat since the seat is placed fully under the body (see the picture below) The ductile iron body will fully be coated to prevent corrosion. My current issue is that I need to prove that there is no issue with choosing...

    Pipe SS304L, Butterfly Valve Body also SS304L?

    Hi guys, I am currently in a bind here. Is there any ASME/ASTM code that specifies that body material of butterfly valve has to be the same as the pipe material? So the service liquid is desalinated water, with TDS<10 ppm, pressure 7 bar, and T=40 deg C. The pipe material that I have chosen is...
