Pneumatic Ball Valve G1/2'' Brass Double Acting
Notice: This product is discontinued, a possible alternative is V3M3C
This 2-way ball valve is pneumatically actuated, featuring a 15 mm bore size and G1/2 inch threaded connections. It is suitable for medium temperatures from -20 to 160°C (-4 to 320°F) and pressures up to 40 bar (580 psi). The Kv value is 20 m³/h (Cv=23). Kv expresses the flow rate of water in m3/h at a one bar pressure drop.
The pneumatic input range is 3–8 bar (43–116 psi). The valve body is made of brass with a PTFE seal, making it suitable for water, air, oil, fuel, lubricant, and vacuum. This model is also suitable for gas applications, holding DVGW approval.
The actuator features a robust, double-acting rack-and-pinion mechanism with a 35-micron hard-anodized aluminum body. It is compatible with ISO 5211 F03/F05 valves and includes BSPP air ports for air supply and return. Additionally, it features a Namur 1/4 inch interface for solenoid valves and an 50 x 25 mm interface for VDI/VDE 3845 limit switch boxes. Comes unassembled, including ball valve (BL2BA-012), actuator (V3JKN/PR40D), and mounting accessories.
