Flow-Tek's series 7000 ball valves offer the highest flexibility in selection of end connections, seat materials and 3-piece design. To meet customer demands for a valve with the widest possible range of applications, these valves can be fitted with control or tri-ported balls (for full cavity drainage), as well as cavity fillers for special service requirements. The series 7000 is designed with extensive interchangeability of balls, stems, stem packing, handles and mounting hardware between valve sizes and series members. This system reduces parts inventory and maintenance costs. The 3-piece body design allows the body to swingout for ease of in-line maintenance. It also makes it possible to offer a wide variety of end connections.

• Balls are solid metal, precision machined and mirror finished for bubble-tight shut off with less operating torque. Ball edges have machined curvatures to reduce seat wear and provide a high cycle life
• Valve bodies are investment cast and solution annealed/normalized for the highest quality and added strength. Body castings are marked with a foundry heat number for full traceability. Carbon steel bodies are phosphate coated for increased corrosion resistance
• The seat design ensures bidirectional, bubbletight sealing while providing the lowest possible torque. This seat design reduces friction, minimizes seat wear and reduces operating torque. The following are the standard seat materials for the series 7000/8000: RPTFE, TFM-1600, stainless steel/PTFE (50/50), UHMWPE, virgin PTFE, Tek-Fil®, and cavity fillers. Other seat materials are available
• Standard on the series 7000/8000, the double lock nuts allow handles to be easily and safely removed while the valve is under full line pressure
• The standard (up to 2-1/2 IN) live-loaded stem seals with belleville washers considerably increase the number of cycles between maintenance adjustments
• The integrally cast top flange ensures positive actuator mounting. Secure mount eliminates unwanted actuator movement during high cycle or continuous duty applications. Actuation equipment can be easily and safely removed while the valve is under full line pressure. Designed to ISO 5211 bolting pattern standards
• The handles feature a standard Safety Trigger to prevent accidental movement of ball position. Operation is easily made with one hand. The trigger locks the handle in the open or closed position. The handle lock can be bypassed, if needed, with a small bolt through the handle in the bypass position. An Anti-Tamper Padlock can be used to secure the handle in position, preventing unwanted access. Travel stops limit the movement of handle to set 90 DEG intervals, preventing over travel of the ball
• Full range of interchangeable connections including threaded, socket weld, butt weld, ASME class 150 flanged and extended weld in place
