When it comes to managing water flow in high-pressure, high-volume hydroelectric systems, precision and reliability are non-negotiable. The HOPD Butterfly Valve from V-Tork Controls is specifically designed to meet the complex demands of hydroelectric water lines—ensuring efficient flow control, minimal pressure drop, and long-term operational integrity.

What is the HOPD Butterfly Valve?

The HOPD (High-Performance Offset Disc) Butterfly Valve is a heavy-duty valve solution developed by V-Tork Controls for hydroelectric plants, dam water lines, and large-scale water management systems. It features a robust build, triple-offset design, and advanced sealing technology—making it an ideal choice for handling high-velocity water in critical infrastructures.

Key Features of the HOPD Butterfly Valve

Triple Offset Design

Engineered to eliminate friction between the disc and seat during operation, ensuring:

• Zero leakage sealing

• Extended valve life

• Smooth actuation under high pressure

Pressure & Flow Handling

• Handles extremely high flow rates and water hammer conditions common in hydro plants

• Designed for low-torque operation, even at full differential pressure

Corrosion & Cavitation Resistance

Constructed using corrosion-resistant alloys and coatings, the HOPD valve:

• Withstands aggressive water chemistry

• Minimizes cavitation damage and wear

Manual, Electric & Pneumatic Actuation Options

Compatible with a range of actuation systems for:

• Remote operation

• Automation integration

• Emergency shut-off scenarios

Applications in Hydroelectric Systems

Hydroelectric power generation relies heavily on large water conduits, turbines, and intake systems. The HOPD butterfly valve is used for:

• Turbine inlet isolation

• Main water conduit control

• Emergency shutoff for penstocks

• Bypass water lines

Its high-performance sealing and low maintenance make it an ideal fit for continuous operations and large infrastructure setups.
