1551-SS-1-DGG-L-020 Flo-Tite 3/4 316SS 3 Piece Ball Valves, Titan 1550 Series

Flo-Tite's TITAN Series valves are designed as a three-piece construction to allow ease of access for maintenance of the valve ball and seat without special tools. This line of valves utilizes the "free-floating" ball principle. The ball is not fixed but is free to move with the line pressure. As a result, these valves are capable of tight shut-off with the flow in either direction or dead-ended, regardless of the position of the valve in the line. The downstream seat, which is opposite the pressurized side, of a closed valve, must carry the load exerted by the line pressure on the ball, while the upstream seat is subject to little load or wear. For this reason, it is sometimes possible to increase useful seat life by turning the valve end-to-end in the pipeline.MODELS 1540 Series: Carbon Steel 1550 Series: Stainless SteelDesign Features:3 piece bolted body designBlow out proof stem design17-4PH stem standardHeavy-duty, rugged constructionLockable handlesAPI 607-5th edition fire safeAPI 608 complianceAnti-static groundCasting traceabilityActuator mounting pad, ISO5211Ability to handle pressure, temperature, and shockAbility to withstand higher pressure dropAbility to handle slurries and resist abrasion and wearAbility to handle thermal fl uid and super heated steamBubble tight sealing to 4500 psiMetal seat classes V & VI shut off
