T23-SS-FGG-L-080 Flo-Tite 3 Stainless Steel Threaded Ball Valve, Fusion T23

The Flo-Tite T23 is designed as a split body, two-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-for-end in the pipeline.Design Features:ISO Automation PadAnti-Static GroundingAdjustable Stem PackingSupertek SeatingSafety Locking HandlesQuality Investment Castings Foundry Heat for Full TraceabilityMetal Name Plates for Ease of Identifying Soft PartsAPI 608Fire Safe API 607-5 CertifiedNACE-MR-0175CE MarkingVacuum Service to 20 MicronsNPT Connection ANSI B1-20-1Shell Wall Testing to 3000 PSIPressure Balanced BallCorrosion Resistant Black Phosphate CoatingBlowout-Proof StemSteam Rated:T23 150 WSPModels:T23 2-Piece DesignFull Port:1/4" to 2" 2000 WOG2-1/2" to 4" 1500 WOG
