PVC-U Ball Valve with Union Nut and Hose Adaptor d32 PN16

  Data Sheet |   Product Range | Instructional Video

The PVC-U ball valve with union nut and hose adaptor d32 mm is engineered for reliable flow isolation in industrial piping, commercial irrigation, and water treatment systems. Manufactured from unplasticised polyvinyl chloride (PVC-U), this valve provides high mechanical strength, rigid structural integrity, and excellent chemical resistance against saline solutions, acids, and alkalis. Rated for a nominal operating pressure of PN16 (16 bar at 20 degrees Celsius), it delivers leak-tight shut-off in pressurized networks. The integrated union nut allows for fast dismantling without disturbing adjacent pipework, while the barbed hose adaptor facilitates secure connection to flexible hoses for discharge or bypass loops.

Equipped with high-grade EPDM seals, the valve guarantees dependable tightness across an operating temperature range from 0 to 60 degrees Celsius. The smooth internal bore and precision-machined ball minimize pressure drop and prevent sedimentation during prolonged service. Compliant with standard ISO EN 1452-3 for thermoplastic piping systems, this valve ensures full dimensional compatibility with metric solvent cement pipelines. Its robust body resists external atmospheric weathering and aggressive fluid media, making it an optimal choice for swimming pools, agricultural irrigation, industrial wastewater, and potable water distribution.

Designed for installer convenience, the valve features an ergonomic handle for smooth quarter-turn actuation and immediate visual confirmation of flow status. The solvent cement socket enables quick joining using standard PVC-U cements, creating a homogeneous and permanent joint. The union connection with its knurled nut allows installers to disconnect the hose adaptor easily for routine cleaning, line servicing, or system maintenance. Combining industrial-grade materials with practical modularity, this PN16 valve delivers long-term operational reliability for engineering contractors and system operators.
