Material & Applications

Why Drinking Water Certified: WRAS (Water Regulations Advisory Scheme, UK) and KTW (Germany) certification ensures that all valve materials in contact with potable water are tested and approved for safe use. The EPDM liner is specifically formulated and tested to not leach harmful substances into drinking water. The epoxy coating on the cast iron body internals provides an additional barrier preventing iron contamination of the water supply.

Typical applications: Municipal water distribution networks, drinking water treatment plants, potable water pumping stations, water supply systems, food-grade water systems. Any application where the valve is in direct contact with water intended for human consumption.

Drinking Water Certified Butterfly Valve FAQs

What certifications does this valve have?
KSB CDB-S is available with WRAS (UK), KTW (Germany), and ACS (France) drinking water approvals. These certifications verify that all wetted materials have been tested and found safe for contact with potable water. The specific certifications required depend on the country and local regulations.
Is the epoxy coating mandatory for drinking water?
Yes. The cast iron body must be coated with food-grade epoxy to prevent iron from leaching into drinking water, which would cause discoloration, taste issues, and potential health concerns. KSB applies the epoxy coating at the factory as a standard part of the drinking water specification. The coating is applied to all internal body surfaces that may contact water.
What is the maximum temperature for drinking water service?
80°C. This covers all municipal water distribution temperatures. For higher temperature potable water applications (e.g., hot water systems), consult KSB for material compatibility at the specific temperature.
