304F Ball Valve

The 304F series ball valve incorporates several innovative design features for improved process performance.

The uniform bore diameter improves flow rates and minimizes pressure drop through the valve.

The dual pattern ISO 5211 mounting pad facilitates direct mounting of pneumatic and electric actuators.

In combination with our high-cycle stem packing system, the 304F series ball valve provides an ideal choice for all your automation requirements.

Operating / Test Conditions:
- Temperature Range (RTFE): -20° to 420° F.
- Maximum Working Pressure (RTFE): 1000 psi WOG (1/4"-2") 800 psi WOG (2 1/2"-4").
All valves are shell and seat tested to ANSI/ASME B16.34 and API 598.
All materials comply with applicable ASTM material specifications.
End connections: All to B16.34; NPT to B1.20.1; socket weld to B16.11; butt weld to B16.25; flanged to B16.5. Options:
End connections available in NPT, socket weld, butt weld, and flanged in 316SS or carbon steel.

Features
