Series IBV Instrument Ball Valve
Brand: Generant IncSeries IBV Instrument Ball Valves offer reliable 1/4-turn ON/OFF flow control for pressures up to psig: 6,000 (kPa: 41,300, bar: 413).
These valves feature a Micro-Finished Floating Ball design to provide a positive seal in both directions. Series IBV Instrument Ball Valves also feature a “straight-through” flow path to ensure high flows with minimum pressure drop.
The valves are designed to operate with a low operation torque while providing a long service life. All valve configurations can be panel mounted.
Features- Bi-directional
- Straight-through flow path
- Micro-finished floating ball
- Large orifices for high flow efficiency
- Handle orientation indicates flow
- NPT, O-ring face seal, or Dual ferrule tube connections
- Adjustable stem packing for in-line maintenance
