New family of full-port ball valves

Apollo Valves introduces new line of three-piece, full-port ANSI Class 600 ball valves, designed to meet the latest industrial codes and standards. Designated the 83B and 86B Series, the new valves are fully rated to Class 600 in every size. The new valves offer extended service life and minimal maintenance in harsh plant environments such as power generation, pulp and paper, oil fields and refineries and chemical processing. The new Apollo ball valves are available in seven sizes: 3/8", ½", ¾", 1", 1¼", 1½" and 2". They're available in carbon steel, stainless steel, nickel and other alloy body styles, with threaded, socket weld and buttweld end connections.

New Apollo three-piece ball valves are designed and built for long life. Standard configuration includes RPTFE spiral wound body seals, enclosed stainless steel bolting, multi-piece V-ring PTFE packing and unfilled FDA-compliant enhanced PTFE seats. Other features include a swing-out center section, pressure-balanced solid ball and a unique gland plate that can be adjusted without removing handle or actuator.

Apollo 86B Series valves are equipped with a fully machined ISO 5211 mounting. The body and end cap design includes cast bosses for purge and drain ports. The valves are lockable in the open or closed position.
