Description
Sharpe® Ball Valve, Uni-Body Design, Series: 54 Series, 3 in Nominal, Flanged, 150 lb, Standard Port, 2.56 in Orifice, Lockable Pipe Handle Actuator, Solid Stainless Steel Ball, 7.99 in Inlet to Outlet Length, 6.81 in Top to Inlet Center, Carbon Steel Body, 316 Stainless Steel/RTFE/Carbon Steel/Stainless Steel/Hard Drawn Stainless Steel Trim, RTFE
Features:
- The internal entry stem is machined with a heavy shoulder to prevent blowout
- Anti-static devices are included at two points on the valve stem to provide continuous ball-to-stem and stem-to-body grounding, to prevent build-up of static charge in the valve
- Stem seals are live-loaded using belleville washers to provide consistent sealing forces, reducing or eliminating the need for frequent seal adjustment
- Provides consistent and controlled loading of the body seal compression through a full metal-to-metal contact joint design, eliminating seal extrusion and potential body joint leakage
- Ideal for actuation, ISO 5211 mounting dimensions simplify fit and alignment between valve, bracketry and actuator
- Permits easy field conversion from manual operation to actuation
- Relief slots are provided at the perimeter of the seats to equalize pressure in the body cavity with the upstream line when the valve is closed, preventing upstream seat extrusion and enhancing downstream seating performance
- Precision engineered and machined solid stainless steel ball with relief hole in the stem slot prevents build-up of cavity pressure while the valve is in the open position
- Body and end piece castings are marked with heat codes providing traceability to the chemical analysis and material test reports performed at the foundry
- 316 stainless steel stem, RTFE seat, carbon steel/stainless steel sleeve, hard drawn stainless steel spring
- RTFE seal/stem packing
Standards/Approval:
