PFA, UHMWPE Packing Seat
The working temperature of UHMWPE packing seat should not be higher than 150°F (65°C).
Application : CNG-Powered Vehicle (NGV) and Fueling System Solutions
Note:
1. To prevent seat leakage, packing adjustment may be required periodically during the service life of the valve.
2. A higher initial actuation torque may happen to the valves that have not been cycled for a period of time.
3. Before installation, instrumentation ball valves exposed to dynamic temperature conditions may lose their initial packing load. Stem packing adjustment should be required.
Cleaning and Packaging:
FC-01: Standard cleaning and packaging for general industrial procedures.
FC-02: Special cleaning and packaging for wetted system components to ensure compliance with product cleaning requirement of ASTM G93 Level C
◎ SilcoNert 2000 (Sulfinert) Coating: Wetted metal components SilcoNert 2000 (Sulfinert) coated.
Vent Port Options
The maximum working pressure for vented valves is 500 psig (34.4 bar).
Straight-pattern Valves
A vent hole in the side of the valve body makes the downstream port vent to atmosphere when the valve is closed.
Angle-pattern and 3-way Valves
A vent hole in the side of the valve body makes the bottom port vent to atmosphere when the valve is closed.
Welded Vent Port Connections
A FITOK tube fitting or a tube stub welded to the vent port is available for stainless steel vented valves.
Locking Device 1 can lock BO series valves with 90° or 180° rotation handle, locking hole diameter is 0.21 in (5.2 mm);
To order a ball valve with locking device 1, add -LH to the valve ordering number.
Example: BOSS-FL6-07-LH/BOSS-FL6-07-3L-LH
Locking Device 2 can lock BO series valves with 90°,180°, or 360° rotation handle, locking hole diameter is 0.34 in (8.7 mm);
To order a ball valve with locking device 2, add -LK to the valve ordering number.
Example: BOSS-ML6-05-LK/BOSS-ML6-05-5L-LK
Bottom Screw Panel Mounting Options
Mounting Dimensions
The are not available on angle-pattern valves, 3-way valves, 6-way valves and 7-way valves bottom screw panel mounting options.
