Model M3 ball valve has been designed to cover a wide range of applications as a shutoff valve for oil, gas, and water service Available in sizes from 2-1/16” to 4-1/16”, operating pressures up to 3,000 PSI with flanged, threaded or welding ends. FEATURES: Through-conduit: The internal passage of the valve is full bore, without flow restrictions. This feature reduces turbulence and headloss. It is possible to pass through the valve with any tool that can pass through the internal diameter of the pipe. Trunnion mounted: The one piece ball-and-stem construction of the M3 ball valve is the basis of its compact and robust design. This also provides greater rigidity and alignment, reducing the wear of the bearings and the operating torque as well. Low operating torque: The load produced by the pressure is borne by two self-lubricated low-friction bearings that are isolated from the flow and the environment. Internal stops: The dual-action internal stops provide high precision at the end of the stroke during opening and closing. In the open position, this prevents exposure of the seats to flow erosion. A neoprene guard prevents the entry of particles into the stem. Actuators: The M3 ball valves can be supplied with electrical or pneumatic actuators for remote operation.
