Overview of Full Flow Ball Valves:
Our full flow ball valves are designed to minimize pressure drop due to their full port design. The internal passages align with the piping and are larger than pipe ports when fully open. These valves are suitable for a wide range of liquids and gases, operating effectively between -45° F and 375° F. The valves are rated for a working pressure of up to 850 PSI, depending on temperature and valve size. For safe usage with specific chemicals and gases, refer to the material specifications of internal components. Temperature curves plotted over pressure versus size charts should be consulted for detailed specifications.

Slide Valves and Lockout Slide Valves:
Slide valves allow air to flow to downstream equipment when open and shut off air from the compressor when closed. This design bleeds off trapped air on the load side, preventing unexpected equipment cycling. Lockout slide valves can be locked in the closed position, providing a critical safety feature to prevent accidental equipment start-up during maintenance. They accommodate standard lock shank sizes up to 0.145".

Specifications and Ordering Information:
The ball valves feature a die-cast aluminum handle, a forged brass valve body, a hard chrome-plated forged ball, brass Teflon (P.T.F.E.) seals, and a brass stem. Various sizes and models are available, with specific dimensions and working pressures listed in the provided table. Ordering information includes model numbers for different configurations of slide valves and lockout slide valves, with options for FPT and NPT ports.
