Overview of Stainless Steel Ball Valve 2-Piece Vented

Description
This version of the 2-piece stainless steel ball valve features a vented port, designed to relieve trapped pressure or enable drain/vent applications. With a precision-forged 316 stainless steel body and a polished ball, this valve ensures reliable shut-off with added capability for safe depressurisation. The vent plug allows air or residual fluid to escape before full isolation, enhancing user safety and system compatibility.

Key Features

• Vent port allows safe release of trapped fluid or gas before isolation
• High corrosion resistance and durability in demanding environments
• Full bore ball design offers minimal pressure drop
• Service-friendly split-body construction

Installation & Application Notes
Install ensuring the vent port is accessible for maintenance and safe venting. Use in applications where trapped air or fluid pockets must be relieved before full isolation. Compatible with petrochemical, instrumentation or high-purity systems where safety and maintenance access are critical. Confirm fluid compatibility with seat material and that actuation torque accounts for additional vent-bleed path.
