Fisher 8560 High Performance Butterfly Valve
Products Description
The Fisher 8560 High Performance Butterfly Valve is designed for demanding process control applications where accurate throttling, dependable shutoff, and long service life are required. Its eccentrically mounted disk provides a near-linear flow characteristic throughout the full rotation of the valve, making it suitable for both modulating control and on-off service.
The Fisher 8560 butterfly valve is available in a variety of sizes and connection styles – wafer or single-flange – giving you flexibility for different piping layouts. You can specify either soft or metal seats, depending on your service requirements.That means easy integration whether you're installing a new system or upgrading an existing automated setup.

Main features
Precise Throttling Performance
The eccentric disk design generates a near-linear flow characteristic, allowing the Fisher 8560 High Performance Butterfly Valve to provide accurate throttling throughout the full valve travel while helping reduce seat wear during operation.
Flexible Shutoff Options
The stainless steel disk can be paired with either a soft seat or a metal seat.
Soft seats provide bubble-tight bidirectional shutoff, while metal seats offer exceptionally low leakage in the recommended flow direction, making the valve suitable for demanding liquid and gas applications.
Advanced metal sealing options are also available where more stringent shutoff performance is required.
Adaptable Temperature and Pressure Performance
The Fisher 8560 butterfly valve supports a wide range of operating temperatures, from cryogenic service right up to elevated process temperatures. The specific range is defined by your choice of seat material and valve construction.
Different seat options give you the freedom to configure the valve for what matters most to you – heat resistance, low-temperature operation, or chemical compatibility. This adaptability makes the 8560 a solid, trustworthy choice for diverse applications, without locking you into a one-size-fits-all solution.
Low Fugitive Emissions
An optional advanced packing system helps minimize fugitive emissions below applicable regulatory limits, making the valve suitable for facilities where emission control is an important operating requirement.
Designed for Critical Industrial Service
Trim and bolting are available for sour-service applications in accordance with international H₂S recommendations. Conductive packing provides electrical bonding for installations in hazardous locations.
The valve also carries multiple international approvals covering pressure equipment, fire safety, fugitive emissions, and hazardous-area applications.
