Description
The 2-Way Durapipe Pneumatic Ball Valve is a factory-assembled and tested valve solution designed for reliable on/off flow control in industrial ABS pipework systems. Combining a Durapipe VKD DualBlock® ball valve with a Prisma pneumatic actuator, this assembly provides dependable performance in applications where automated operation, safety certification and durability are critical.
The valve body is manufactured from high-quality ABS and fitted with EPDM seals, offering excellent chemical resistance and long service life. Fully unionised construction allows the valve body to be removed easily for inspection or seal replacement without disturbing the surrounding pipework. Imperial plain ends are designed for solvent welding using ABS solvent cement and cleaner.
The Prisma pneumatic actuator is ATEX and SIL3 rated, making this assembly suitable for hazardous and safety-critical environments. Its robust polyamide housing, fast cycle times and ISO-standard mounting ensure consistent actuation with minimal air consumption. The actuator provides smooth 90° rotation and can be integrated easily into automated control systems.
Please note: actuated valves are assembled and tested to order and cannot be returned for refund.
