Apollo 76F-108-27A 2x22 Apollo Stainless Steel Ball Valve Full Port with Latch

Description

They are primarily used in air, gas, liquid, and steam applications. Apollo manufactures ball, mixing, and relief valves, actuators, water gauges, marine fittings, heating and plumbing products, and backflow prevention devices. Ball valves use a spherical disc to control the flow between pipes, tubes, or hoses. Flow is allowed when the hole that pierces the ball-shaped disc is in line with the inlet and outlet of the valve. A ball valve is full port if the hole of the ball is the same size as the inner diameter of the connecting pipeline (resulting in lower friction) and is reduced port if the hole of the valve is one pipe size smaller than the pipe, resulting in less flow. The valve is inline for connecting two pipes going in the same direction and has NPT threads on both ends for creating tighter seals than straight threads. The Apollo 76F-100-A series two-piece full port inline ball valve is made of stainless steel and has a latch-lock lever handle and female National Pipe Taper (NPT) threaded connections on both ends. Flow is blocked when the ball is horizontally swiveled 90 degrees, so that the hole of the ball is perpendicular to the opening of the valve. Ball valves can be referred to as full port or reduced port (also known as regular or standard port) depending on the inner diameter of the valve. Ball valves may have a handle or lever that aligns with the balls position (open or closed) for manual operation.

Key Features

• The lever handle can be locked in either the open or closed position.
• Ball valves use a spherical disc to control the flow between pipes, tubes, or hoses.
• This valve is made of stainless steel for resistance to corrosion and has a stainless steel latch-lock lever handle with a stainless steel nut and vinyl sleeve for manual on/off control.
• The ball valve is full port for reduced friction; its inner diameter is the same as the inner diameter of the pipe it connects to enable maximum operating efficiency.
• The Apollo 76F-100-A series two-piece full port inline ball valve is made of stainless steel and has a latch-lock lever handle and female National Pipe Taper (NPT) threaded connections on both ends.
• This valve is for use with water lines, processing plants, and agricultural applications and meets standard MSS SP-110 for quality assurance.
