New Product: Multipurpose ball valves

Oct. 11, 2007
The SK Series multipurpose ball valves offer quarterturn shutoff for general process and control applications in fluid systems.

Constructed of 316 stainless steel, the valves feature springloaded seats, floating ball, low-torque operation, and compact design.

The spring-loaded seats and floating ball give leak-tight operation in low and high-pressure systems while reducing wear and extending cycle life. The valves’ low torque permits manual operation and the use of smaller pneumatic and electric actuators. The SK Series are available with rack-and-pinion pneumatic actuators. End connections, in … and ≥/8 in. and 6 and 8-mm sizes, are available in gaugeable tube fitting, NPT and ISO pipe, and VCO O-ring face seal. Service options include low-temperature and sour gas applications. The valves handle 6,000-psig (413) bar working pressures and temperatures from –40 to 302°F.
