SKU: 43507-2023
The purpose of this standard is to provide the minimum requirements for 4 in. through 60 in. (100 mm through 1,500 mm) resilient and metal seated ball valves for water, wastewater, and reclaimed water supply service, including material, design, inspection, testing, marking, handling, and packaging for shipment.
Description
This standard covers gray-iron, ductile-iron, and cast-steel flanged-end, low-leakage, shaft- or trunnion-mounted, full-port, and double- and single-seated ball valves for pressures up to 150 psi (1,050 kPa) in sizes 4 in. through 60 in. (100 mm through 1,500 mm) diameter and pressures up to 300 psi (2,100 kPa) in sizes from 4 in. through 48 in. (100 mm through 1,200 mm) diameter for use in water, wastewater, and reclaimed water systems having water with a pH greater than 6 and less than 12 and with temperatures greater than 32°F (0°C) and less than 125°F (52°C). This standard can be referenced in documents for purchasing and receiving ball valves and can be used as a guide for fabricating and assembling resilient seated ball valves (RSBV) or meal seated ball valves (MSBV) 4 in. through 60 in. (100 mm through 1,500 mm). The requirements set forth herein apply when this document has been referenced and then only to ball valves 4 in. through 60 in. (100 mm through 1,500 mm) for water, wastewater, and reclaimed water supply service applications.
