Carbon and Stainless Steel Flanged <strong>Ball</strong> <strong>Valves</strong><br />
Options and Accessories<br />
CS Oval Locking Hdle. SS Oval Locking Hdle. Gear Operator<br />
Handle Options<br />
A wide variety of handles are available to fulfill safety<br />
and operations requirements in various processing and<br />
manufacturing industries. All handles come standard<br />
with plastic covers. All carbon steel body ball valves<br />
come with carbon steel lever handles. All stainless steel<br />
body ball valves come with stainless steel lever handles.<br />
Many of these options may be field assembly only.<br />
Stainless Steel <strong>Ball</strong> and Stem<br />
316 stainless steel ball and stem are available on many<br />
NIBCO ® ball valves – see catalog specification sheets<br />
to identify what valves are available or consult factory.<br />
Oxygen Service<br />
Many NIBCO ball valves are available for oxygen<br />
service. Cleaned and packaged in durable, sealed<br />
plastic bags to avoid contamination. Oxygen cleaned<br />
valves are not recommended for pressures exceeding<br />
200 PSI. The steps involved are as follows: 1) Clean<br />
ultrasonically all component parts with a degreaser<br />
in a warm water solution. 2) Rinse with warm water<br />
in an ultrasonic bath. Rinse again in cold water. 3) Put<br />
all component parts under black light for inspection of<br />
any carbon. If carbon is found, repeat steps above. 4)<br />
Assemble and test valves. 5) Package the valves in a<br />
sealed plastic bag to avoid contamination.<br />
Vented <strong>Ball</strong><br />
NIBCO provides vented balls as standard on all carbon<br />
and stainless steel ball valves and bronze T-560s with<br />
stainless steel balls. For other bronze ball valves, vented<br />
balls may be available – see catalog specification<br />
sheets to identify what valves are available or consult<br />
factory.<br />
Seat and Seal Kit<br />
(available in fire safe “F”, “N”)<br />
Fire Rated<br />
<strong>Valves</strong> feature as standard secondary metal-to-metal<br />
seal in the event of the primary seat being destroyed<br />
by fire. <strong>Valves</strong> ordered for compliance with API 607 will<br />
be provided with graphite packing. Fire rated/fire safe<br />
valves are available in NIBCO ® models #s 510, 515, 530,<br />
535, 560, 565 and 590.<br />
Static Grounding<br />
NIBCO provides static grounding standard on most<br />
carbon, stainless steel and bronze three-piece ball<br />
valves.<br />
Actuation<br />
Engineered with a modular approach, NIBCO ® electric<br />
and pneumatic actuation systems give you flexibility to<br />
actuate new valves or retrofit existing valves. NIBCO<br />
electric actuators, and NDA and NSR pneumatic<br />
actuators feature ISO standard mount and drive<br />
(exception is 800 series).<br />
No Silicone Used – Silicone Free Issue<br />
At times NIBCO ® standard flanged ball valves may<br />
incorporate the use of silicone during assembly. Flanged<br />
ball valves can be special ordered as “Assemble-Dry<br />
without test.” These valves will be assembled not using<br />
silicone in the form of grease or aerosol spray.<br />
Note: Even though provisions are made to assemble<br />
valves and not incorporate the use of silicone lubricants,<br />
the potential for it to be present as air-borne particles<br />
prevents us from certifying that our valves are 100%<br />
silicone free.<br />
