1/2" FNPT x 1/2" FNPT Mini Ball Valve (Nickel Plated)
The 1/2" Mini Ball Valve is a compact and highly reliable fluid control component designed for various applications within wash systems, including Detergent and Maintenance POD's, Bay Wash Gun Trolley Systems, and Pre-Blast systems. This valve provides precise on/off control of fluid flow and is characterized by its robust construction and maintenance-free operation.
Featuring a 1/2" Female NPT (National Pipe Taper) connection on both ends, this ball valve allows for straightforward in-line installation within existing piping. It is made from brass material and is nickel-plated, which enhances its corrosion resistance and durability, making it suitable for environments where exposure to water and various chemicals is common. The valve is designed as a dual-sealing system, ensuring reliable shut-off in both directions (open or closed) and preventing backflow.
This ball valve is built for high performance, with a maximum pressure rating of 450 PSI, capable of handling demanding system pressures. It operates effectively across a wide temperature range, from -4°F to 200°F (-20°C to 93°C), making it versatile for various fluid temperatures. The valve is distinguished by its T-handle design made of nylon, which allows for easy manual operation and provides a comfortable grip.
A key advantage of this mini ball valve is its maintenance-free design, with no metal-to-metal moving parts that would typically require lubrication or adjustment, contributing to a longer service life and reduced operational downtime. Its compact dimensions of approximately 2-1/8" X 1-3/4" X 1-1/8" make it an ideal choice for installations in confined spaces.
