Overview: This document provides technical specifications and certifications for NIBCO's brass
ball valves, specifically the T-FP-600A and S-FP-600A models. These valves are designed with a two-piece body, full port, blowout-proof stem, and PTFE seats.
Specifications:- Pressure Ratings: 1/4"-2" valves are rated at 600 PSI (41.4 Bar) for non-shock cold working pressure, while 2 1/2"-4" valves are rated at 400 PSI (27.6 Bar).
- Material Composition: The body and end cap are made of forged brass with copper content greater than 57%. The ball is brass with chrome plating, and the stem is brass. PTFE is used for the ball seat and stem packing, while the stem seal O-ring is made of fluorocarbon (FKM).
Dimensions and Weights: The document provides detailed dimensions and weights for various
valve sizes, ranging from 1/4" to 4". It includes measurements for different parts of the valve and their corresponding weights in pounds and kilograms.
Certifications:- CSA Certification: Certified to ASME B16.44 and CR91-002 for threaded valves from 1/4" to 4".
- UL Listing: Applicable for threaded valves from 1/4" to 4".
- IAPMO Listing: Listed to NSF/ANSI 61-8.
- FM Approval: Approved for threaded valves from 1/4" to 2".
Performance Parameters:- Temperature Range: -4°F to 194°F.
- Pressure Ratings: Various certifications specify pressure ratings, including 125 psig for ASME B13.44 and 250 psi for UL listed categories such as compressed gas, flammable liquid, and LP-Gas shutoff valves.
Notes: Lever handles and nuts are not interchangeable between solder and threaded models due to standard approvals. For material certification, contact NIBCO Technical Services.
