Modular 3-piece stainless steel ball valve, PTFE (TFM 1600) seal, PN100 and FDA and USP Class VI certification. Equipped with lever with lock.

Description

The Meca-Inox 3-piece ball valve series combine robustness, reliability and exceptional flexibility for demanding industrial applications. Thanks to the 360° rotatable housing, installation is easy and fault-tolerant. The ball valve operates reliably under extreme temperatures from -196°C to +280°C (depending on series), and offers excellent sealing according to TA-Luft, PED and EN ISO 15848-2 standards, among others.

What really sets this ball valve apart is its complete modularity: all parts are interchangeable. As a result, a suitable configuration is always available for every installation, retrofit or specific application, from the seats to the connectors. In addition, spare parts remain compatible with older models thanks to years of consistent design. This makes the system future-proof, maintenance-friendly and cost-effective. With multiple material options and connection forms such as butt weld, socket weld, Tri-clamp, threaded and orbital weld, the Meca-Inox ball valve offers maximum design freedom for sectors such as chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food and process industries.

Product features

This PN4 3-part two-way ball valve is widely used in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industry, but due to its polished finish it is also extremely suitable for applications within the biotechnology, semiconductor industry, fine chemicals, food and beverage industry.

Configuration:
This ball valve is made of 316L (CF3M) with a polished - Ra 0.4 μM internal finish and is equipped with a seat of PTFE (TFM 1600). The ball valve has a temperature range of at least -50 °C to a maximum of +190 °C and a pressure class of PN100. For operation, this ball valve is equipped with a lever with lock on a top flange according to ISO 5211. This makes it easily interchangeable with various drives, such as a handwheel, electric, pneumatic, etc.

Dimensions:
Ball: full bore 2 way ball with 11.1 mm passage
Connection 1: 3/8" weld end (orbital) according to ASME BPE for 9.53 x 0.89 mm pipe

Connection 2: 3/8" weld end (orbital) according to ASME BPE for 9.53 x 0.89 mm pipe

Certificates:
  • FDA: Applicable to food and drinking water contact in the USA; sets limits on substances that can migrate from materials to consumer products.
  • USP Class VI: Applies to medical and pharmaceutical applications; materials must be biocompatible and pass strict toxicity, irritation, and implantation tests.
