Key Features
- Full Port Design: When fully open, the ball valve has the same inner diameter as the pipe, minimizing flow resistance and allowing easy pigging.
- Blow-Out Proof Stem: The stem is bottom-loaded to prevent it from being ejected under high pressure, ensuring safety.
- ISO 5211 Mounting Pad: The valve top conforms to international standards for direct mounting of electric or pneumatic actuators for automation.
- Locking Device: The handle is typically equipped with a lock hole to lock the valve in the open or closed position, preventing accidental operation.
Selection & Thread Standards
- Thread Standards: Confirm compatibility with your existing piping. Common standards include:
- NPT: National Pipe Taper (common in North America).
- BSPT: British Standard Pipe Taper.
- BSPP (G): British Standard Pipe Parallel (often used with sealing rings).
- Actuation: Standard configuration is manual with a locking handle; pneumatic/electric actuators are available as options.
