SPECIAL NOTES:
• Model Selection: See model selection choices, consult catalog or website for more information.
• End Connection: Valve model number indicates end connection type. Second End Connection notation can be used in conjunction with valve
model number to indicate a combination such as: NPT x Socket Weld.
• For V-Modulating Control V-Ball add as a special feature.
• Ball: All ball material is supplied standard as 316SS. If a different material is required, please specify as a special feature.
• Special Features are noted at the end of the identification number. Please see special feature codes.
• Ordering Information: When placing an order or requesting a quotation, please provide as many details on the application as
possible, such as: media type, temperature, pressure, pipe size, etc.
