I am building a penstock for a micro hydro power plant. I am installing a 8" gear drive butterfly valve by Nibco - it is a "WAFER" style. Can anyone comment on types of flanges needed for installation?
Its a new $500 us made valve from Graingers on closeout for 100 bucks, but no flanges are available.
I am a long way from the "flange guy" and need to do some layout without a days drive to fool around in the city. Cannot seem to find the info on the net, its so obscure a subject.
I understand the bolt up or lug flanges, but this wafer stlye has me stumped.
I will try and post a link here to show the issue.
