Series VA Automatic
  • Model No. VA-991 5/8" Dia. Glass, 1/2" NPT Vessel Conn.
  • Model No. VA-902 3/4" Dia. Glass, 3/4" NPT Vessel Conn.
These tubular glass gage valvesfeature bronze body construction. They come complete with corrosiveresistant ballchecks for automatic closure in the event of glass breakage. This ensures safety and prevents the loss of fluid. Maximum working pressure is 400 PSI @ 100º F, or 200 PSI @ 400º F.

Series VB Non-Automatic
  • Model No. VB-991 5/8" Dia. Glass, 1/2" NPT Vessel Conn.
  • Model No. VB-902 3/4" Dia. Glass, 3/4" NPT Vessel Conn.
These bronze valves are similar to above models. However, ballchecks are notstandard, thus making operation non-automatic.A 1/4" needle drain valve in the lower unit accommodates a breakage condition. Either a 1/4" lower armball or a petcock is available upon request. Sizes, packing materials and working pressures are identical to Series VA Models.

Series VC Automatic
  • Model No. VC-991 5/8" Dia. Glass, 1/2" NPT Vessel Conn.
  • Model No. VC-902 3/4" Dia. Glass, 3/4" NPT Vessel Conn.
Conforming to ASME power-boiler code requirements, these gage valves feature stainless steel ballchecks in both upper and lower units. This provides automatic closure in the event of glass breakage and requires the ballcheck in the lower valve to rise vertically to its seat.

A safety handle is also provided for manual operation of the 5/16" diameter drain valve. This valve is of the full-flow ball valve design.

The valve body is constructed of rugged, heavy pattern bronze. Standard packing materials are wearresistant Teflon© PTFE. Maximumworking pressure israted at 500 PSI @ 100º F, or 250 PSI @ 400º F.

Series VE Non-Automatic
  • Model No. VE-991 5/8" Dia. Glass, 1/2" NPT Vessel Conn.
