KTV Tubular Valves For Level Gauges
Application:
The KENCO Tubular Valve (KTV), when used with a KENCO "SAFEGUARD" level gauge or KENCO "EPG" level gauge, provides maximum operator safety and environmental protection from a potential gauge glass failure. The KTV is designed for service in low to medium pressure applications up to 500 psig.
Features:
The 1/8" thick o-ring provides for easy installation of the glass and requires less wrenching of the packing nut to seal
Positive O-ring seal gauge glass connection
1/2" OR 3/4" MNPT rigid vessel connections
Ball check shut off
Inline vent and drain connection for easy glass cleaning
Straight pattern design
Braided PTFE stem packing
Flanged vessel connections available
All valves are supplied with 316 S.S. valve stems, ball checks and glass packing washer
The bodies are precision investment castings with each body pressure tested to assure quality
