- Oxygen Service Ready: All valves are cleaned for oxygen service to meet strict safety standards.
- Corrosion Protection: Plastic insulators protect valves from galvanic corrosion, extending the lifespan of the system.
- Color-Coded Labels: Comes with NFPA and ISO color-coded gas labels in English, English/French, and English/Spanish for clear identification of gas services.
- Pressure Gauges Included: Equipped with 1 1/2” diameter gauges for monitoring pressure and vacuum levels, clearly labeled with “USE NO OIL” for safety.
Specifications
- Dual Gauge Port Valves: Constructed from cast bronze, each valve includes Teflon (TFE) seats and seals for reliable operation. The lever-type handle allows for quick quarter-turn operation.
- Type K Copper Tubing: Valves come with copper tubing extensions, making installation easier and compliant with current standards.
- In-Line Repairable: The 3-piece valve bodies allow for in-line repairs, reducing the need for system downtime during maintenance.
- Durable Valve Box Construction: The valve box is made from 18-gauge sheet steel, painted for rust protection, and includes an adjustable plaster flange (1/2” to 1 1/8”) for easy mounting.
- Removable Window with Safety Feature: The valve box includes a decorative frame with a smoked translucent window for NFPA models or a white opaque window for ISO models. The window cannot be replaced while any valve is in the closed position, ensuring safety during maintenance.
- Gauges for Monitoring: Comes with 1 1/2” diameter gauges for precise pressure and vacuum monitoring. Dual scale gauges are not acceptable for U.S.A. installations.
