develop valves with customised solutions conforming to various National and International Standards
such as IS/BS/EN/AWWA etc. KBL is the first valve manufacturing company to introduce Sluice
Valves in India and to have successfully carried out Flow Test on a very large size Butterfly Valve
(2200 mm) in-house.

KBL offers CE marked EN 593 Butterfly valves and BS 5163 Sluice valves along with other industrial
valves. It has successfully carried out proof of design test upto 2600 mm size Butterfly valves as per
AWWA C-504.

Valve Manufacturing Plant, Kondhapuri, Near Pune India.

Yamuna, the Global Headquarters of Kirloskar Brothers Limited, has been designed to reflect the
four principle tenets of the Kirloskar Group - Concern for the Environment, Comfort of our People,
Commitment to Technology and Innovation and Continued respect for our Heritage.
The corporate office has been awarded the prestigious LEED Platinum rating for green building. The
structure that is spread over 3 acres of land and houses 500 employees is able to save up to 50% of
energy and 30% of water purely by use of technology and effective design.
Yamuna uses water-cooled VRV air conditioning system with sensors for monitoring CO2 levels and
optimizing intake of fresh air. The structure has photovoltaic panels to generate electricity and
meeting 2.6% of power consumption.
Yamuna has maximum use of glass panels along walls that allow natural light inside the building,
thereby saving on electricity. Most of the illuminating lights have CFL fixtures that are extremely
energy efficient. The structure also uses other energy efficient gadgets like LCD monitors etc. The
facility derives a substantial amount of water from the recharge pits by rainwater harvesting.

Seat
Seat is contoured to ensure that all stresses due to the line pressure are counterbalanced and that
the extrusion of the seat into the body cavity due to sealing forces is eliminated
Stem
Heavy duty stem in stainless steel designed to provide positive engagement with all types of valve
operators
Stem Bearing
Heavy duty reinforced PTFE bearing is provided to absorb side and thrust load hence reducing stem
torques and protect stem packing from deformation

SPECIAL COATINGS
Kirloskar Brothers Limited specializes in providing various types of protective coatings for valves such as Epoxy
Painting, Corrocoating, Ebonite and EPDM Lining for drinking / portable and sea water

Kirloskar Corrocoat Range of High Performance Protective Coatings

Kirloskar Brothers Limited in association with Corrocoat Ltd., U.K., brings you advanced technology glass flake
filled coating systems to suit a wide range of application needs
Plasmet ZF has been specially developed to satisfy the demand for a rust tolerant coating requiring minimal
surface preparation yet offering long term resistance to corrosion

Plasmet ZX is to be applied as a top coat over ZF and other epoxy based primers where decorative
appearance and chemical resistance is necessary. It is used mainly in atmospheric conditions

Plasmet ZE is a versatile, high performance glass flake filled epoxy system developed for application
directly on to metal substrates or on to an inhibitive primer system such as ZF

Plasmet ECP is a clear coating system for coating or priming masonry and concrete substrates. It is suitable
for application to damp surfaces, which for operation reasons cannot be dried out prior to application

Polyglass High Performance Coating System

The polyglass range of materials was originally developed to create a spray- applied protective coating
which offers all the performance advantages of a flake glass filled system, together which improved ease
and speed of application
