The ABV series comprises air-actuated ball valves with all-plastic construction for corrosive environments, available in 1/2", 3/4", and 1" NPT or BSP sizes. The ABVA variant operates with air pressure to open and close, while the ABVS variant includes a spring kit for fail-safe operation, converting between normally-open and normally-closed modes. Each actuator integrates a direct manual override and is mounted using hex nuts tapped for piping support. The actuator is constructed of corrosion-resistant thermoplastics with Buna-N seals, and is rated for 20-50 PSI (1.4-3.5 bar) for ABVA and 50-80 PSI (3.4-5.5 bar) for ABVS. Weights range from 0.9 to 1.8 lbs depending on size. Operation requires a 4-way solenoid valve for ABVA and a 3-way valve for ABVS, with compressed air needing filtration and lubrication.
Actuated & Manual Ball Valves feature trunnion safety design and dual sliding seats for ultra-smooth operation and repeatable bubble-tight shutoff with an incredibly long cycle life. Available 2-way and 3-way, in 3/8″– 4″ sizes.
Actuated & Manual Butterfly Valves, 2″ – 8″ sizes.
