Industrial Automation-Ready Design
The GF PVC-U/EPDM354 Compact Ball Valve is engineered for seamless integration into automated industrial systems. Its monoblock structure combines lightweight yet durable PVC-U material with EPDM seals, ensuring corrosion resistance in aggressive environments. The 3/4" NPT threaded connection simplifies installation in American-standard piping networks, while the compact form factor minimizes space requirements in machinery and processing lines. Designed for automation, this valve supports optional actuator compatibility, enabling remote operation and precise flow control. Ideal for water treatment, chemical processing, and manufacturing, its ISO and ASTM compliance guarantees reliability across global industrial applications.
Robust Performance & Safety Compliance
Built for demanding industrial use, this GF Ball valve features a pressure rating of PN 16, ensuring leak-free operation under high-stress conditions. The EPDM O-rings and HD-PE ball seals provide superior resistance to temperature fluctuations and chemical exposure, extending service life in harsh settings. NSF certification underscores its suitability for potable water systems, while its flame-retardant and non-toxic properties meet stringent safety standards. The valve’s 90° quick-turn lever allows intuitive manual override, complementing automated functions for dual-mode operation.
Versatile Adaptability & Low Maintenance
The PVC-U/EPDM354 valve’s modular design accommodates diverse industrial needs, including irrigation, wastewater management, and food processing. Its lightweight construction (1.2kg) and tool-free assembly reduce installation time, while the corrosion-resistant body eliminates costly upkeep. The bright-colored handle aids quick identification in complex piping systems, enhancing operational efficiency. With a proven track record in GF’s 70-year legacy of plastic valve innovation, this model combines heritage engineering with modern automation readiness, delivering sustainable performance for decades.
