Selection and Grooved Connection Compatibility

Pipe Size and Groove Dimensions

Match the valve's nominal size, pipe outside diameter, and groove dimensions to the piping system. Verify compatibility against the valve drawing and applicable connection requirements.

Coupling and Gasket Requirements

Confirm that the coupling and gasket are compatible with the valve connection and required working pressure. Matching nominal sizes alone does not guarantee compatibility.

OS&Y Installation Clearance

OS&Y gate valves use a rising stem to indicate valve position. Allow sufficient clearance for full stem travel, operation, inspection, and maintenance.

 

Operating Conditions

Select a valve according to the system's design pressure, service conditions, and project specifications. Confirm suitability for the intended fire protection application using the relevant product documentation.
