Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed specifications and features of the AMERICAN Flow Control 2"-12" Series 2500 Resilient Wedge Gate Valve, designed for use in drinking water, sewage, fire protection, irrigation, and backflow control systems.
Construction: The valve is constructed from ductile iron, offering greater strength and durability compared to cast gray iron. It features a fusion-bonded epoxy coating inside and out for corrosion resistance, a high-strength bronze stem and wedge nut, and a ductile iron wedge encapsulated with EPDM rubber to ensure zero leakage.
Specifications: The valve is available in sizes 2" to 12" with a pressure rating of 250 psig, compliant with ANSI/AWWA C515 standards. It is UL Listed and FM Approved in applicable configurations. The valve design includes a smooth, oversized waterway to reduce pumping costs and is lightweight for easy handling.
Features: Key features include triple O-ring stem seals, thrust washers to minimize operating torque, and stainless steel nuts and bolts for corrosion resistance. The valve is certified to NSF/ANSI Standard 61 and complies with ANSI/AWWA C550 for epoxy coating.
Dimensions and Parts: The document includes detailed dimensions for various valve sizes and configurations, as well as parts lists specifying materials and quantities for different valve components.
Maintenance: It is recommended that each valve be operated through a full cycle annually to prevent buildup of deposits that could affect operation or shutoff.
