Working Mechanism

To open the valve, the lever-lock handle is turned, causing the ball to rotate and clear the passage.
With the handle fully turned, the valve reaches its open state, permitting fluid flow.
The handle's position controls the flow rate, and reversing the handle's motion closes the valve.
The lever-lock ensures secure positioning.
This valve offers efficient fluid flow control and interruption, enhancing its usability.

Features

It includes a reinforced seat that improves pressure resistance and ensures a secure seal.
This valve is designed with a mounting pad, making it easy to attach an actuator for automated control.
It offers a blow-out proof stem design, preventing the stem from ejecting under pressure and enhancing safety.
This valve can operate effectively in vacuum conditions down to 29 inches of mercury, expanding its application range.
It incorporates a PTFE seal and MPTFE stem packing, assuring effective sealing and minimising leakage risks during operation.
This stainless steel valve features a vinyl grip handle for corrosion resistance and comfortable operation.
It has a lever nut made of 18-8 stainless steel, ensuring strength and reliability during manual operation.
The valve retainer is made from ASTM A351-CF8M / A276-316 stainless steel, ensuring compatibility with various conditions.
It has an A276-316 stainless steel gland nut & stem, ensuring durability and corrosion resistance.
