Features
• Watts Steam Ball Valves compared to gate valves incur less
stem packing wear because of minimal quarter turn move-
ment. Gate valve operation requires multiple turns and a ris-
ing stem; resulting in accelerated stem seal wear and external
steam leaks.
• Watts Steam Ball Valves compared to gate valves offer resil-
ient seats that “Hold Tight” and are more abrasion resistant to
foreign material in the system. They offer consistent, repeat-
able operating torque.
• Mineral filled PTFE seats
• 316 Stainless Steel ball and stem
• Minimal pressure drop due to large ports
• Blow-out proof, pressure retaining stem
• High cycle life reinforced PTFE stem packing and thrust
washer
• Vinyl insulator on heavy duty zinc-plated carbon steel handles
• Fast quarter turn open or close operation
• Low operating torque
• Adjustable stem packing gland requiring minimal maintenance
• Each valve individually tested, air under water, in the opened
and closed position
• Pressure rated at 250 psi (17 bar) WSP @ 405°F (207°C),
600 psi (41 bar) WOG non-shock
